Drone technologies are moving fast - and legislation needs to keep pace 🚁 My bill to regulate commercial drone activity will this week advance to second stage in the Dáil. The Bill sets out clear rules on planning permission and noise complaints as drones become more common in our skies.

IrishRail is to be commended for the extra services they have put on for big events recently - I think it shows that there is an appetite for intercity services beyond 8/9pm and later services on commuter routes too. Here's their response on whether these later services could be made permanent
Was the visit to the White House worthwhile? I'm not convinced - yesterday's event has shown that the shamrock ceremony has become a charade where the main aim is appeasement, rather than diplomacy.
Further delays on the rollout of BusConnects - here's an update about the long-awaited Blanchardstown - Dublin Airport route. The deprioritising of public transport by this Govt is having a knock-on effect on the delivery of promised bus routes all over the country - just when we need them most.
Minister O'Brien has committed to introducing the Blanchardstown - Dublin Airport bus before the end of the year. This route has already been pushed back several times - now we need to make sure that this timeline is adhered to.
Another win for the car lobby this week in Brussels, as more of the Green deal is watered down. The only winners here will be Chinese EV manufacturers who will now come in to fill the gap left by these European companies.
No shame. No accountability. Irish civilians detained after being seized in international waters are now being used as political props by Israel’s far-right Government. What we’re witnessing is performative cruelty - propaganda in advance of potential elections in Israel.
Some welcome news for residents in the Kilmartin area - new shops and amenities are close to being finished in the Kilmartin Local Centre development. More apts. will also be delivered here alongside the Kilmartin Town Centre development across the road, with a new creche being delivered here too.
Across the country every year, parents of children with additional needs face a scramble for school places and supports, sometimes needing to submit multiple applications to different schools and only securing a place well into the summertime.
⁉️Just 3 bus shelters built in all of Dublin in 2025? I was a bit taken aback by the Taoiseach's dismissal of my question to him today about his Govt's delivery of bus infrastructure - have a listen here. This Govt's deprioritising of public transport - against all evidence - is apparent again.

“There are two emotions a venture capitalist can project onto a founder: fear or safety,” shares Puneet Agarwal, partner at True Ventures. Startups are built in uncertainty. Founders are constantly making decisions with imperfect information, taking risks, and pushing forward without guarantees.
Cuba condemned US threats and sanctions targeting its oil imports, warning that ordinary citizens suffer the real consequences through blackouts, shortages and economic hardship. Collective punishment of civilians is not democracy promotion, it is geopolitical coercion.
