A small portion of the objections raised against the Dunsink plan… They’re wiping out green fields and building non-stop. But who’s actually ending up in the new estates. CSO census data doesn’t lie. We have one country. We should not destroy it. X FB INSTAGRAM

“Citizen” is a convenient word. It hides more than it reveals.

🔭 Dunsink Observatory's dark sky protections are on the chopping block. Fingal County Council has proposed removing two planning objectives that shield the 200-year-old observatory from light pollution. The Council's argument is that the new Urban Area Plan for the area will cover it instead. Problem is, that plan is still out for public consultation. Nothing's been adopted. Nothing's confirmed. If you care about Dunsink's dark skies, now's the time to say so. 🚨 Reminder: Potest tomorrow starting at 8pm from Scribblestown Lane. See you there.

Sat down with Darren J. Prior yesterday on Near FM to talk Dunsink and the real driver behind it. 18,500 units proposed at Dunsink, 2,500 in Phase 1 alone. Meanwhile Ireland's population grew by 78,300 last year almost all of it net migration, non-Irish nationals account for effectively all of that net inflow. The regime isn't being honest with people about that link. We will be.

The idea that we can or should even attempt to “integrate” third-world Sub-Saharan Africans, Muslims and Indians into our way of life is lost on me. It has already failed in every single iteration across the Western world. Enough pretending. Time to stop the charade. Remigration now.

Sinn Féin are not only totally disconnected from their main working class vote they are disconnected from reality entirely. "The tricolour is a symbol of peace between our two great traditions of the Gael and the planter". - Mary lou McDonald - Uachtarán Shinn Féin.

Great turnout today in Scribblestown for our public consultation on the Dunsink Urban Area Plan. Real engagement, real concerns, real advice from the people who actually live here not planners in an office guessing what the area needs. Thanks to everyone who came out. Delighted to have co-hosted this with my colleague Stephen Redmond. The consultation closes 31 July. If you weren't there today, make sure your voice is still heard before the deadline and attend finglas own public consultation on the 13th of July at 2pm in Blanchardstown library.

An EU flag was raised outside the Fingal Civic Offices in Swords today, as part of a ceremony marking Ireland's EU presidency. Meanwhile, for the past 2 years the Irish people have been lectured by these same bureaucrats for daring to raise their own national flag. Housing files sit unanswered inside those offices and Irish families have nowhere to go and the priorities are out the window! We only have to remember that our own Taoiseach wants "nothing to do with the backward looking idea of sovereignty".

The audacity of letting immigration spiral so badly out of control that 36% of Irish voters now back a hard border on their own island to regain control. That ‘large cohort’ is a screaming indictment of reckless open-border policies, housing collapse, and total government failure. Secure the nation, REMIGRATION!

Lanesborough gave reliable power and local jobs but was closed for the green agenda. Now they’re building new flexible plants like Platin in Meath because renewables can’t deliver steady output on their own. A €300 million private project by SSE, due 2028. I'm sure I'll be told "this has nothing got to do with data-centres" like I was the last time a crew from Eirgrid turned up to a local area committee meeting.

The Dáil heard this week it will take 55 YEARS to clear social housing need. An Irish child born today could be drawing a pension before the State houses the people already waiting. Our own people are priced out, emigrating, or homeless in their own country! They deserve better than a five-decade waiting list. We need homes built at scale and ringfenced for our people only and we need it yesterday! Worth remembering that Simon Harris recently stated that they won't be releasing the figures pertaining to how many foreign nationals are currently on social housing lists.

DUNSINK: 18,500 "UNITS" PLANNED FOR OUR AREA. Fingal County Council has just published its Draft Urban Area Plan for Dunsink. This is one of the biggest planning decisions in this area's history, up to 18,500 "units" planned for the lands between Finglas, Blanchardstown, and Castleknock. I have already been fighting to make sure this development is done right and ringfenced for local Irish people not just rubber stamped and handed off to mass immigration, vulture funds or international conglomerates. Our people need homes with front & back gardens, to raise their children, not more cramped "units" and children playing in apartment halls. If you, as an Irish person are on a housing waiting list in Finglas/Blanchardstown or trying to purchase a home in an over heated market? YOU should be first in line for social and the regime’s supposed "affordable housing" at this site, should you wish to apply to live there when it's built. No apologies! NO TRUCKS THROUGH SCRIBBLESTOWN. I brought a motion to the local area committee on Thursday the 4th of June alongside a petition that Stephen Redmond had executed on the ground. The motion was defeated by way of the chairs deciding vote, second time on record such has happened. The voting record on the motion. Support: Jon Birtchall, Angela Donnelly, Breda Hannaphy, Myself, Gerard Sheehan, Ellen Troy. Against: Eimear Carbone-Mangan, Kieran Dennison, Tom Kitt, Ted Leddy, jk onwumereh, Siobhán Shovlin. Abstain: Tanya Doyle, Mary McCamley, John Walsh. The public consultation is open now until 31st July. You can have your say, the link is in the comment section and I want to hear YOUR concerns their too. Comment below or message myself or Stephen directly. I'll be raising all your points and more at the full council meeting on 6th July as well as in my own formal submission. In the meantime, myself and Stephen Redmond are going to continue running an extensive on the ground campaign, engaging with locals, assisting in submissions and ENSURING THEIR VOICE IS HEARD.

One in seven households in Ireland are now behind on their electricity bills, with the average arrears at €511. Energy credits were axed, prices keep rising, and ordinary families are left to absorb it. How many more "taskforces" before this government actually acts for the benefit of the people and not to the benefit of energy conglomerates.

5yo girl left wheelchair bound, non-verbal & brain damaged after the Dublin stabbing. Her attacker, Riad Bouchaker, was 'upset' over a social welfare refusal letter when he set upon her, two other children and their care worker. No words for this evil

An Irish worker in Kerry was awarded just €5,000 after being replaced by Ukrainian staff at their workplace. €5,000. That is what an Irish worker's job is worth to this State's discrimination tribunals. Not reinstatement. Not accountability. A token payout and a pat on the head. If the situation were reversed there would be outrage. There would be emergency debates and ministerial statements. Instead there will be silence from the political establishment and a fine that wouldn't cover a month's rent.

How many more graves before our leaders stop the denial?

Last night in the Chamber they tried the smear… and admitted the truth. Labour called for a cordon sanitaire. Sinn Féin repeated a blatant lie about Coolock. And the executive finally admitted the Part 5 exemptions were hidden… until I forced them to the light. Transparency only happens when we demand it.
