what Ecologist recommends felling trees during nesting season? Ecologists are meant to use their expertise to solve environmental problems, meant to help us make better decisions that minimize the effects of our activities on other species & the planet.
who took money to sanction removal of trees during nesting season? @BSMConsult is on this report, provided to @LiamQuaide which recommends [in very ambiguous terms imo] the felling of 127 mature Monterey Cypress trees.

BSM's website state they provide Environmental Project Management, Environmental Impact Assessments, Strategic Environmental Assessment, Appropriate Assessment & environmental reports. where was the "environmental due-diligence" they say they provide?
What Arborist took money to recommend the felling of 127 trees during nesting season? where is the assessment showing 127 trees had irreconcilable storm damage which could not be sympathetically addressed? "Dangerous trees?" or was the only danger to insurance premiums?
this appears to any reasonable person to be callous work, lazy work, destructive work by @Corkcoco & sanctioned by financial motivations more than safety or ecological motivations. in any respect, it was cynical work, done during a lockdown when eyes were averted.
this is #Biodiversityweek, & some of the most biodiverse mini ecosystems on our island & in our county -trees- are being destroyed.

if you're as weary as i am with this status quo, pls sign up to bignature.org. with a collective voice we have a better chance of highlighting these actions of ecological destruction & demanding accountability of individuals & State agents who ignore Natl/EU law.

When Anti-Zionism becomes the normalised political position, open Antisemitism becomes the norm. Image
Zionism is simple; the belief that the Jewish people have a right to a homeland. It’s a moot question answered over 80 years ago. Israel exists.

Anti-Zionism is NOT about criticising Israeli policies or military tactics, it’s not about excoriating Bibi as a criminal or
highlighting how a racist Otzma Yehudit party was brought into government. It’s about delegitimisation through demonisation, in order to eliminate, in one way or another, the only democratic state in the Middle East. The only state in the Middle East where Muslims enjoy full

Recently @JohnSimpsonNews wrote about when he went to cover the trial of Klaus Barbie, the Butcher of Lyon. He was interviewing a man Barbie had arrested and he asked ‘How did Barbie know about you?’ ‘My neighbour betrayed me.’ ‘What happened to him?’

‘He’s still my neighbour.’
50 years later, and the neighbour was still listening in from his garden and only ran inside when they turned the camera on him.
In the last week, I've been appalled to see just how many "neighbours" there are in Ireland, the UK, the US, Australia, France, Germany, and all across the West.

I still think about the large number of QTs on the @NWCI's thread about the dangers of prostitution from self described leftists railing against the demonisation of sex work. There were absolutely excoriating and severe in their denouncements of the NWCI and their abandonment
of the "true" feminist ideals; the ideals that "TWAW and Sex Work is Work," both an affirmation and catechism requiring a suspense of reality, and they were tarred with the bigot brush.
The NWCI, the same group who penned and signed a letter with @AmnestyIreland calling on the Media and Politicians to deny legitimate representation to those in Ireland-mostly women-with a belief in biology, and concerns and/or objections to the GRA and Self-Id.

The idea of diversity is negated when thoughts aren’t allowed to differ. Inclusion can never be achieved when societal discussions that should be broad in orientation & scope are replaced with those that are narrow. Inclusion does not mean open; it means involvement, engagement.
It's hard work because true inclusion requires the greatest effort to be as right for everyone as possible. It requires dialogue, examination, debate, fact, convincing. It requires the kindness that Conor so woefully and lazily misplaces here.

It also requires humanity. & I think humanity is less about having empathy for those with whom you agree, but rather having empathy for those with whom you disagree. It also requires a grounding in empathy and reality to realise that the kindest thing to possibly say is that:

What a devastating short film.

We have to protect our girls.
They have no escape anymore; in sports, in school, in the spaces in life that they had to fight to carve out for themselves in order to give them places of safety, opportunity and confidence. They are constantly facing social pressures to conform to a hypersexualised
version of femininity in an abuse-porn addled age, where boys & Social Media are placing impossible expectations on them while telling them that they're not enough, or that they should be more. Or that their merit as a human being is determined by their compliance.

A great indicator of the moral or ethical veracity of an idea or movement is in how it deals with those who disagree. 🧵
Classic Liberalism cherishes diversity of thought. Differing voices are important in order to do the hard work of building a common world in which we can live together amidst our real and important differences. It values rationalism, reason and science. It seeks to uplift.
It is democratic and loving. Diversity of thought is Classic Liberalism's strength. Protest is peaceful, non violence is absolutely necessary, because true and lasting success lay in strength of ideas and in the power of words to effect change in order to improve the world.
