Fantastic piece by @whittledaway.bsky.social on rewilding.

Nothing else represents such sheer, distilled hope at a time when that can be in very short supply, and it's our primary weapon against nature loss in highly depleted places like Ireland.

A lot of people want to know what to do to be successful. It may be difficult to hear, but stop listening to stories about other successful people. Stop chasing the inspirational fluff. It doesn't matter what time someone wakes up in the morning. It doesn't matter what book you read last.

Since 2000, the rail network across the country has been expanded - with the #southeast and #Waterford being the big exception. We'll continue to campaign vigorously for infrastructure investment in our region across the lifetime of the next government.

Looks like they’ll have 86: FF 48, FG 38.
2 short, but in reality needing another 8 to make it workable.

According to Micheál Martin, your % prediction was spot on, and he acknowledged it publicly. Beware the knock on the door looking for the next celebrity candidate 😂

Those intra- party transfers are fascinating. Intra-party loyalty is gone. These are two parties in a de facto merger

There’s an air of treating the public as children going on here.
“Roll up and vote for the highest bidder.”
Even a cursory review will tell you that the bonanza cannot last.
