1. Public Safety: Poor signal can prevent people from making emergency calls or receiving critical alerts. In a growing town, reliable access to emergency services is essential. 2. Remote Work and Education: With more people working and studying from home, especially post-COVID, strong mobile data and tethering capabilities are vital. Weak signal directly impacts productivity and access to opportunity. 3. Economic Growth: Tramore is expanding, and businesses—especially tourism-related ones—rely on good connectivity for card payments, online bookings, communications, and marketing. Bad signal limits economic potential. 4. Social Inclusion: For residents who may not have access to broadband or prefer mobile internet, poor signal can lead to digital exclusion, affecting their ability to connect with family, services, or community. 5. Population Growth: As more people move into new housing developments, infrastructure needs to keep up. Mobile coverage should be considered an essential utility—just like water or electricity. 6. Tourism Impact: Tramore is a popular tourist destination, and visitors expect reliable service. Poor signal affects their experience and can harm the town’s reputation.

Gambling has ruined so many lives. Broke up marriages,  homes repossessed, jobs lost. Gambling can be a silent addiction and is not visible to lots of people. A gaming/ gambling arcade in a rural town is the last thing we need.

If we want to live in a world where laws are respected by all and cannot simply be disregarded by those with wealth and power, we have to make a stand against this piracy of Irish (and international) writing by Meta.

The decision-making of the absentee Chief Inspector, Carol Grogan, if left to stand, will result in catastrophic job losses in Ocean View. There are currently 27 elderly, vulnerable, and frail persons from our community waiting for placement in the wonderful Ocean View. Let them do their work which they do very well with dedication and love. We ask for the unbalanced regulatory decision-making to end. Chief Inspector, stop your unreasonable interference affecting the Centre at a local level. We give our full support to save Ocean View and the jobs of the 44 employees currently employed in the nursing home. Save Ocean View Jobs for the Dingle Peninsula. Save these local facilities employees for the people of the Corca Dhuibhne region, our local Community and beyond.

We don’t have any power to stop him, but we can show how we feel and maybe he will actually think about what he’s doing if reasonable people around the world let him know. The political opposition in the USA, whose job this really is, are virtually silent 

The Triple Lock is an integral part of Ireland's neutrality and Foreign Policy. Removing the Triple Lock is an attack on our neutrality. This change opens the door to Irish troops being seconded to NATO and EU missions, with almost free-range given to the government of the day. The Triple Lock means Irish Defence Forces troops are only deployed on UN-mandated missions. A UN mandate gives legitimacy to peacekeeping missions which will be impossible to replace. The blue beret, that Irish troops have always worn, also offers them a huge level of protection. There is currently an attack on the UN with Elon Musk recently stating the United States should leave the institution. The proposed plans from the government are a further undermining of the UN at a time of increasing militarisation. So what? This is a fundamental change in Ireland's stance on neutrality - so we believe it should be put to the people in a national plebiscite. Every citizen in Ireland deserves to have a direct say on whether the Government should make this change. We recognise the importance of democratic consultation in shaping Ireland's future foreign policy, which is why we believe the only truly democratic option is a direct vote through a vote by the people on the whether Ireland should retain the Triple Lock.

Our Concerns: 1. Unclaimed Deposits:  A significant portion of the €100 million in deposits collected during 2024 remains unclaimed, yet the public has limited information on how these funds are managed and spent. Re-turn must disclose how these funds are being allocated and reinvested to benefit environmental initiatives.  2. Executive Salaries: Re-turn has refused to disclose the salaries of its CEO and executive team, despite handling millions of euros in public funds. 3. Accountability: As a not-for-profit organisation operating a nationwide scheme, Re-turn must be fully transparent about its financial operations to maintain public trust. Our Demands: 1. Full Disclosure: Publicly release the salaries of Re-turn executives and provide an annual financial report detailing the allocation of unclaimed deposits. 2. Public Oversight: Establish an independent review committee to ensure that funds are being used responsibly for environmental and community benefits. 3. Legislative Review:  We urge the Irish government to introduce regulations that enforce financial transparency for organisations managing public deposit schemes, including strict guidelines on the allocation of unclaimed deposits.  The Deposit Return Scheme was created to encourage recycling, not to generate undisclosed profits. The Irish public deserves clarity on how their money is being used. By signing this petition, we demand greater accountability and transparency from Re-turn. Let’s ensure that this initiative truly serves the public and environmental good.

We know what needs to be done to protect children from the horrific harms of climate breakdown - urgent cuts wherever possible to the pollution causing the climate crisis. This must include aviation, which is using record levels of fossil fuel and holding back climate action, even as the odds for children's futures worsen. Despite airlines polluting at higher levels and climate threats for children worsening, an aggressive campaign by vested interests has resulted in a Government commitment to disregard the harmful impacts and support lifting the Dublin Airport passenger cap. (The ‘cap’ currently allows for a colossal 32 MILLION passengers each year.)  As it is, the massive pollution from international aviation is currently not being tackled in our national climate efforts. If the cap was lifted, it would mean not only would the aviation sector continue failing to contribute to the national climate efforts kids are counting on, they'd be INCREASING their harmful pollution even more. Stand up for kids, and sign our petition to Government calling for the passenger cap at Dublin Airport to remain in place. Ireland is using more aviation fossil fuel than ever before - 1.36 billion litres in 2023 alone. Our children’s futures are being irreversibly harmed due to a failure to cut harmful global warming pollution - they face malnutrition, increased danger from more extreme weather events, and economic harm. Every fraction of a degree of global warming matters. Increasing flights via a lifting of the cap, means massive increases in fossil fuel use and pollution. Keeping the cap means responsibly protecting against even greater levels of fossil fuel pollution. Unprecedented and apparently unlawful levels of flight traffic at Dublin Airport are already reported to be causing harm. Schools and communities under flight paths have reported negative impacts on the education, sleep, well-being and home lives of children due to intolerable levels of noise pollution. All children have a fundamental right to rest, play and learn. Keeping the cap means putting communities, families and children before harmful industry expansion and pollution. Flying is the most climate-harming form of travel there is, and in Ireland we’re already flying  almost double the amount of our European neighbours. Most of this is for leisure, and very likely more money is being taken out of the country via outgoing tourism than coming in. Nor are any apparent efforts being made to limit reckless private jet use or frequent flyer incentives. We know that the more the climate crisis escalates the more harm will be done - and our kids will pay the price. We’ve seen in recent weeks, with Storm Eowyn, the horrifying damage extreme weather events cause. We urgently need every sector to do its part to help protect kids from the harms ahead. Keeping the cap means a step towards Irish aviation responsibly contributing to the essential climate action all children are counting on.  Stand up for kids, and sign our petition to Government calling for the passenger cap at Dublin Airport to remain in place - aviation must start doing its fair share for kids’ futures.

We commend all of the people who have worked tirelessly to repair our electricity network after the destructive Storm Éowyn, but we were shocked to hear the CEO of ESB Networks warning that the cost of these repairs would be passed on to customers through electricity price hikes. People across Ireland are already struggling to afford their electricity bills. So many of us are struggling to make ends meet – further electricity price hikes will push so many of us to the brink. The ESB has plenty of money – its operating profit for the first six months of 2024 was €446 million. Let the electricity companies foot the bill for storm repairs – not the people of Ireland.

Article III of the genocide convention makes it a crime to be complicit in the crime of genocide. This makes Allianz in breach of international law.  Article I states that governments have a responsibility to prevent and punish genocide. This makes the Irish Government responsible for punishing these companies in breach of the Genocide Convention eg Allianz. The GAA cutting ties with Allianz will send out a massive statement that the GAA will not be complicit in genocide.
