    and it was 48 years ago this #October that my father and our family lost his #brother, my #uncle due to the #PIRA murdering him. What about the heartache they caused to their own people? Care to answer?
    33 years ago my Aunty Mairéad & her 2 comrades Dan McCann & Seán Savage were murdered by the SAS. The use of Shannon Airport to facilitate imperialist wars means other families will experience that same heartache. We must call stop.

    Appalling night for @DubCityCouncil & for #Dubliners. Tonight Councillors, not @FineGael, I might add, voted to NOT to build 853 homes on #OscarTraynorRoad lands. Sickening decision.

    Pleased to confirm that construction work on the #LiffeyStreet pedestrianisation initiative will begin in the second week of January. Full details & picture montages will be available shortly on Dublincity.ie. Local engagement to begin next month.#NorthInnerCity

    This is sickening and we’re seeing far too much of it in our #citycentre. Raised the effectiveness of #OperationCitizen with the @GardaTraffic on Tuesday given my concern the initiative has lessened in its impact. Will be following up further with Minister @HMcEntee on Monday.

    Another incident tonight in #GeorgesDock involving gangs from both sides of the city. A substantial @GardaTraffic is needed as a stabbing took place earlier this week during a similar incident. Sooner or later, someone will be killed, if this situation isn’t brought to heel. 1/2

    Grabbing defeat from the jaws of victory is what this is!!! I’m off for another few days but will be speaking with officials tomorrow, to least extend the scheme, until we secure approval from something further at our #September @DubCityCouncil meeting.
    Over the last 11 weeks, more than 300,000 people have experienced the traffic-free streets of Capel St & Parliament St. This weekend is the final scheduled weekend so be sure to check it out! #Dublin #CityRecovery #Pedestrianisation

    I will be voting against @FineGael’s involvement in a Programme for #Govt. Two reasons, I cannot in all conscience vote to bring #FF back into Govt given their track record in bankrupting our country. (1/2)
    We have agreed a Programme for Government, and I am now asking @FineGael representatives, members and delegates to vote for it. Here’s why:

    Can confirm that @DubCityCouncil will be publishing shortly details of #citycentre plans involving #CapelStreet. Spoke with officials this morning & I think they will be of huge help to businesses like @SlatterysBar @PantiBliss @boarsheaddublin #Krewe #theblacksheep & many more
