Thread 1/5:- Why is @IrishTimes & @IrishTimesHome allowing Hugh Wallace @ArchitectHugh call for the destruction of Dublin’s treasured wilderness wetlands & bird habitats in Dublin Bay? @dublinbaybiospere @birdwatchie @noonan_malcolm @NatureRTE irishtimes.com/property/resid…
2/5 BirdWatch Ireland, Irish Wildlife Trust, NPWS & DPE Environment & Heritage must say Special Areas of Conservation & Special Protection Areas under EU Habitats directive are safe - forever! @birdwatchie, @irishwildlife @npwsbiodata @nswenviromedia @noonen_malcolm @naturenymph 
3/5 Not first time @IrishTimes & @IrishTimesHome have allowed architects like @ArchitectHugh & David Browne @rkdarchitects & @RIAIOnline advocate environmental destruction in Dublin Bay - and in Cork Harbour too this time! To keep auctioneer advertisers sweet?? @CorkNatNetwork
I've finally finished the West Cork podcast (yes, yes, 2 years late, I know), and by God it's gripping. What a skill to make such a compelling listen out of a story we all think we know already. Whether or not Bailey is guilty, there's no denying the man is a narcissistic...
...psychopath. When asked about his extreme violence towards his partner, he says they’re like “Richard Burton & Liz Taylor”; the arrogance and lack of self-awareness of the man is staggering.
Hoping there might be a follow up given the outcome of the French trial @jenniferpforde @bungey ?? #westcork
Recently in #WestCork and #Cork city, there has been local concern about excessive flood works which damage natural spaces and tourist amenities. However, official insistence combined with desperation amongst communities have forced these schemes through.

The government's annual #climate transition statement makes reference to a ‘coherent Whole of Government approach’ in addressing flooding. But developments on flood plains, inappropriate tree planting, and the loss of urban green spaces show this is not the reality

An effective response from the state requires action on planning, tackling insurance companies who are not providing adequate cover for whole communities & support for families & businesses who are terrified when flooding is forecast. #climatechange #justtransition @HollyCairnsTD
