Irish Rail & Bus Éireann require disabled people to give 24-hours notice on certain routes & 4-hours on Dart/Commuter trains.

Every activist spoke to who travelled on these services wanted a reduction & ideally a removal of this notice: jrnl.ie/5520916t

How the conversation switched from a group of “out of control people” assaulting an Olympian, to tents across the city creating fear amongst citizens??

Creating a hostile narrative of vulnerable people.

Any1 riding bikes last night thinking they are paying respect by reving horns & beeping are absolute morons.

Not what family want to hear can guarantee that.

Cop on it’s the height of disrespect to his mother & family.

Any1 disagrees is as bad as them. Life was lost !

Report does not depict the situation across the entire country. It takes in the Dublin region alone. This isn’t the report the Minskter promised. The figures are much worse than they are portrayed.

The number of deaths among homeless people in Ireland rose to 47 last year, dramatically up on the figure of 26 in 2019, and about two-and-a-half times the 19 who died the year before.

The vote for Lord Mayor of Dublin will be held this evening.

The decision on Lord Mayor was made long before a vote will ever take place as the Dublin agreement parties adhere to their agreement.

Labour will take both the Lord Mayor & Deputy Lord Mayor positions.

No other candidate has been put forward. I will be abstaining from the vote.

A real insight into the circumstances surrounding Terrance Wheelocks untimely & suspicious death.

'Homelessness activist wants inquiry into toll of deaths on the streets.'

An “urgent inquiry” must be established after more than 40 homeless people died since the start of this year, the chief executive of a homelessness charity has said.

More than 30 have died in Dublin — the youngest just 22 years old. About 10 have died outside the capital.
“We believe, and it is our fear, that the figure is much, much higher when we take into account the rest of the major cities, such as Cork, Galway, Limerick,” said Anthony Flynn of Inner City Helping Homeless.
