End House Bidding System in IrelandBecause the current bidding system is unfair, unregulated, and deeply frustrating for homebuyers. Everyday people are misled by advertised prices, only to be drawn into unpredictable and often secretive bidding wars. This drives up costs, fuels anxiety, and locks more families out of home ownership. This isn’t just about one sale — it’s about restoring trust, transparency, and fairness in how homes are sold in Ireland. By joining this campaign, people are standing up for a housing system where: • Prices mean what they say • Buyers are treated with respect • Homes aren’t auctioned off behind closed doors. Together, we can send a clear message to the Government that this system must change — for the good of every person trying to buy a home in Ireland.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by L Brandon

Protect Our Revolutionary History - Make the GPO a National Monument not a Shopping CentreThe GPO is the most important historical site in the City of Dublin, the centre of a rebellion that marked the start of the Irish revolutionary period. The Rising was globally significant, preceding a wave of revolution against war and empire across Europe. We can not allow the government dilute or bury our revolutionary past. We can not allow soulless corporate retailers or anyone else destroy such an important space in our City - people power can stop them!1,786 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Conor Reddy

Dog Park for Monread Park, NaasAs dog ownership in Naas has increased, so too has the demand for safe, enclosed areas where dogs can exercise freely, without disrupting other park users. At present, the park does not have a designated space for off-lead dogs, which has led to safety concerns and limited opportunities for responsible dog socialisation. We believe that a designated dog park would bring meaningful benefits to the community, including: • ✅ Improved safety for children, walkers, and dog owners • ✅ Encouragement of responsible pet ownership • ✅ Enhanced social wellbeing for both humans and animals • ✅ More effective use of public green space242 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Matthew Anson

The Irish Academy of Fine Arts, at the GPOIf we were to establish an academy and house it in the GPO, it would kill three very significant birds with one stone: Firstly, it would revolutionise art education in Ireland, and a revolution is what's needed. Secondly, it would give us an institution that would be a rallying point for our national pride and our national identity. And thirdly, it would be a catalyst for the regeneration of that part of the north inner city, which as you know, has been sorely neglected. The establishment of an Academy in the GPO would also honour the memories of the men and women of 1916, and be in alignment with the ethos of the Rising, known as the Poet's Rebellion. The GPO is the building our nation was born in, it should not be used for shops and offices as the government are currently proposing, we can do much, much better.988 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Alan Clarke

Keep Your Promise - Don't Hike University FeesThe decision to restore the student contribution fee to €3,000 represents more than just an additional €1,000 expense - it creates a significant financial barrier for thousands of students and families. Many do not qualify for means-based grants and are already struggling under high living costs, including steep rent and energy bills. This reversal flies in the face of the Programme for Government’s promise to “continue to reduce the Student Contribution Fee over the lifetime of the Government”. AMLÉ, the national student union, has voiced serious concern, warning that this rollback could lead to increased deferral rates, dropouts, or a migration of students abroad . This move comes despite the Government sitting on an estimated €8.5 billion surplus and would cost just around €100 million to maintain the €2,000 fee . This isn't merely a budgetary decision—it’s a question of whether our politicians keeps their promises, prioritise equity in education, and invest in the future of Ireland’s higher education.1,868 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Patrick O'Brien

Right to a Roof 🏘️Ireland has long been a nation of laws — from the ancient wisdom of the Brehon laws to our modern democratic traditions. Now, it’s time to bring that legacy into the 21st century by enshrining the right to housing in our Constitution. We’ve already committed internationally by signing the United Nations Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, which recognises housing as a fundamental human right. It’s a powerful promise that Ireland can fulfill. By making housing a constitutional right, Ireland can lead once again — showing the world that fairness, dignity, and a safe home are not just ideals but guaranteed rights for everyone. Together, we can build a future where no one is left behind 🇮🇪☘️🤝114 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Duillean O'Sullivan

Save the GPO: Protect Our National Heritage from CommercialisationThe GPO is one of Ireland’s most iconic buildings—ground zero for the 1916 Rising and a national symbol of Irish freedom. Turning this sacred space into a shopping and office complex is not development—it’s desecration. The GPO should be strengthened as a historical and cultural hub that honours our past, not turned over to commercial interests. We believe in respecting our heritage and keeping public space for public good—not for profit. #SaveTheGPO506 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Cliff McDonagh

Health Not Handcuffs: Decriminalise Drug Use NowIreland is facing a drug-related crisis — not just in terms of health outcomes, but in how we respond to people who use drugs. Right now, our system prioritises punishment over care. Instead of support, people are criminalised, stigmatised, and pushed further into harm. Decriminalisation is not a radical idea — it’s a proven, humane, and evidence-based solution that would save lives and rebuild communities. Criminalisation causes deep and lasting harm. When someone is arrested or prosecuted for drug possession, the consequences go far beyond the courtroom. People can lose their homes, jobs, education opportunities, and even custody of their children. Families are torn apart. Young people are labelled as criminals before they ever get a chance. Fear of arrest means people are less likely to seek help when they need it — whether that’s during an overdose, a mental health crisis, or when they’re ready to access treatment. At the same time, criminalisation wastes valuable public resources. Our courts and police are overwhelmed with low-level drug offences that do nothing to improve community safety or reduce drug use. The time, energy and funding spent on punishing people could be better used on health services, harm reduction, housing, and prevention. We also know there’s a better way. Countries that have decriminalised drug use have seen clear improvements: fewer deaths, less stigma, more people accessing support, and safer communities overall. Decriminalisation isn’t about encouraging drug use — it’s about treating it as a health issue. People who use drugs deserve dignity, safety and care, not a criminal record. Most importantly, the Irish public has already made its voice heard. The Citizens’ Assembly on Drug Use recommended a health-led approach and an end to criminalising people for personal possession. But despite this, the government continues to delay action — and that delay is costing lives. That’s why we’re launching this campaign. It’s time to listen to the evidence, to centre the voices of people most affected, and to push for a system built on compassion and justice. We need a system that prioritises health, not handcuffs. The longer we wait, the more people are harmed. It’s time to act — because every life matters, and every person deserves support, not punishment.188 of 200 SignaturesCreated by UISCE Advocacy

Hourly Train Service for AthyAthy is a growing commuter town that has an overreliance on private transport. We need to increase our level of investment in public transport, particularly in rural areas where the need is greatest and growing. Irish Rail must increase the frequency of the Waterford to Dublin Heuston route, which serves Athy. This must begin with increasing the number of trains and carriages, while working towards having an hourly service. “With new DART+ fleets coming on stream through 2027 and 2028, the hope is that this will free up carriages for elsewhere. Commuter towns on the Waterford to Hesuston line must be the first location for these additional carriages. I receive daily reports and calls about the overcrowding on the current service. Government, through the National Transport Authority (NTA) and Irish Rail, must expand these train services and match that ambition with the investment required. The reply that I received from Irish Rail states that the introduction of additional services will be subject to demand and NTA approval. I am asking all those using Athy train station and those living in the surrounding area to sign the petition which I will bring to the NTA and the Minister for Transport. The town must future proof itself by availing of potential opportunities like this. We cannot leave rural communities like Athy, behind when it comes to public transport.”1,889 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Mark Wall
