Family at centre of protest deported back to South Africa A mother and her three children who were at the centre of a controversy over their ordered removal from the State have been deported to South Africa, it has been revealed.

In 1966 approximately 50% of Dublins entire population lived in 'Dublin Corporation' housing, according to research by Ruth McManus, associate professor at @dculibrary.bsky.social. When we fight for fair access to housing, we fight for peoples sense of dignity and well-being

Ireland faces €26bn bill if EU climate targets missed Two Government advisory councils have come together to warn that Ireland must act to avoid massive financial costs from missing its 2030 climate targets.

Real question: is anyone listening? Ireland had the lowest score in EU in Climate Change Performance Index in 2019 & 2020 and we elected the same folks that put us there back into government. #ireland #socialmobility #taxsuperwealth #dublin #transit
