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.

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.
Today I am voting no confidence in the Government. They have not only failed in their reactions last week, but are now failing to lead us away from our fossil fuel dependence. Until we break this addiction, Irish families and businesses will all be at the mercy of the whims of Putin, Trump...
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.
⁉️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.
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.

Big claims, but a weak case presented by the airlines this week on the Dublin Airport passenger cap. EU legal opinion is that the passenger cap is likely lawful. The “Open Skies” argument is untested and unproven. What sounds convincing… isn’t holding up in court.

Affordable housing isn’t about charity. It’s not even about economics. Housing is: - healthcare - education - climate policy - economic policy Housing is everything policy. A home shouldn’t be a privilege. It's something we all need to thrive. Get housing right and everything else gets easier.

When Colin Allred decided to run for Senate, he kicked North Texans to the curb and started voting with Republicans, abandoning Democratic values. He voted to pass the Laken Riley Act and voted for a bill to make it harder for people to pay bail. We just can't trust Colin Allred. #TX33

We need fair, thorough, unbiased investigations with local & state law enforcement fully involved. The truth must come out & people must be held accountable.

I'm not sure how many are aware that this is happening. But we should be extremely concerned about this. We should not be integrated with the Israeli military. As a matter of fact, we should've cut Israel off decades ago. But right now, it's imperative to Americas survival.✂️✂️ #SheShed
