Bull Island is nature’s gift to Dubliners. They haven’t been grateful Once a haven for wildlife, its famed hares and many birds have disappeared

'Dublin City Council’s management plan for the island states that efforts by the council and the NPWS to enforce regulations have “proven futile” - this is a remarkable statement' #Dublin

Footpath parking is illegal and it's a blight on our towns. It reduces accessibility, visibility, and causes a serious hazard on our roads.

This video shows why it is so important that we respect the footpaths and highlights the need for more robust enforcement by local councils and the Gardaí.

Not an unfair comment!

But when any other TD in either constituency - government or opposition - organises another meeting, we'll be there too.

EU top court’s adviser says passenger cap ‘may be taken into account’ on Dublin Airport slots Historical slots are not property rights, but authorisation to use airport infrastructure and must have regard for capacity, ECJ advocate general states

'The legal challenge against the cap was initiated in the High Court in #Dublin by Ryanair, Aer Lingus and the Airlines for America trade body... (it) comes after two successive years in which State airport operator DAA has breached the restriction'

Cyclist crushed twice by SUV in Dublin city centre recalls ‘the worst day of my life’ in court Andrew Brett told the court that he was ‘convinced he was going to die’ during the incident.

It's noted that he was wearing high-vis even though the driver was making an illegal turn and even with high-vis and all it's only counted as careless driving and not dangerous driving: www.thejournal.ie/courts-cycli...
