Decision by ESB on Poolbeg Chimneys to be welcomed but action to have them included on list of Protected Structures will continue
While I welcome this interim proposed action by the ESB there is still a need to ensure that their final retention is a matter for the elected representatives of the people of Dublin through the City Council. The fact is that these Chimneys are now seen by many Dubliners as Icons of our Industrial heritage…

Herbert Park gate opening hours
During the Local Elections campaign the issue of closing/opening the gates at Herbert Park was raised a number of times. While I had no fixed view I was conscious that the official view of the Gardai was to keep some of them open and have raised the matter at successive meetings of the South East…

Their record as Councillors and candidates is…

Blocking Property Tax is not the Solution
