If Labour begin preparations for negotiating to rejoin the EU, we could be back in by around 2030-2031, turbocharging Labour's second term.

If they stick to their Brexit maximalist stance then we're not going to be rejoining until the 2040s or later, after the horror of a 2029 Reform government.

Rent Pressure Zones: Landlord 'definitely' won't take property off Airbnb after reform The Government is expected to announce changes to RPZs amid concern that the status quo is deterring investment in house building.

What's needed next is a significant tax on short term rental income, funds can be used to support landlords who can prove they have made a loss on a property in any given year.

2/5

This morning, Israeli forces raided and demolished the Seed Multiplication Unit of the Union of Agricultural Work Committees' (UAWC) national seed bank in Hebron.

Using bulldozers and heavy machinery, the Israeli army destroyed the storage warehouses and infrastructure where essential equipment, seed materials, and tools for indigenous seed reproduction were kept.

This is not just an attack on a building-its an attack on Palestinian food sovereignty, biodiversity and cultural memory.

Israel destroyed a Palestinian seed bank today. This is such a specific kind of evil, targeting literal hope for the future. Attempting to further alienate Palestinians from their home and land. So much destroyed just for the sake of destroying. It's awful.

Safer cycle lanes are coming soon to Auburn Avenue in #Castleknock.

With so many schools in the area, this will be a very welcome addition and will allow so many more vulnerable road users to choose active travel on their daily commutes.

โ€˜Enough is enoughโ€™ โ€“ households being forced to subsidise the costs of data centres, says Sinn Fรฉin MEP The energy regulator has been accused of putting the interests of data centres ahead of household electricity users.

If there had of been a way to keep Eamon Ryan and the Green Party in power, this wouldn't have been allowed to happen. Don't take my word for it, ask any data centre lobbyist, they really hated us for it. #greenparty

Yeah that's a fair point, correlation doesn't always = causation. At the same time I canvassed for the @dbngreens.bsky.social and people said they wouldn't vote for us because their children couldn't get a house. Clearly they saw causal links between government and housing.

Housing shortage, really?

How much longer will these 2 potential homes be left rot on Kyle Street, Cork city centre?
There are lots more empty on the same street & hundreds more across the city

Have no doubt its a manufactured housing crisis

If those 20 EU govts who joined Monday's strong statement by Western countries to immediately allow aid & supplies move unencumbered into Gaza are ready to put their words into action, there's already a qualified majority to act. QMV can immediately suspend the trade chapter 1/4

Like Sean Duffy, who goes on talk shows every week to shit on New York.

Demonization of cities is a big part of the international fascist movement. Cities exemplify diversity and cooperation, which clashes with their Blood and Soil ethos.

A further meeting too place at Our lady's Island last night, growing momentum in the area to get this sorted now but we can expect significant resistance from local FF and FG councillors.
