And he leads his country to a first ever win against Maori All Blacks. A team Ireland first played against way back in 1888.

WWN: The government celebrated its confidence vote win by ramming through a planning bill which every single interested party that isn’t a money grabbing developer has labeled ‘a disaster’. @WhisperNewsLTD

WWN smashes embargo😂
The vote doesn't happen until after debate that begins this evening at 7.09pm & ends around half nine.
The government hammered through the suspension of standing orders earlier today - a move needed because the late changes are o/s the scope of the Bill.
Watch this morning's episode unfold in our real time thread - almost as good as Being There and with echoes of Stranger Things

Haven’t we had enough planning scandals?

‘It is difficult to escape the conclusion that the amendments are being rushed through to avoid controversy, negative media coverage, and the requirement to actually explain what is at issue.”
- @Mickcliff

‘Again.’

“On Thurs. evening opposition politicians were given details of 48 pages to be added to a 20-page planning bill.
2.5 hours have been set aside on Wednesday to debate these along with amendments from the original bill. It will be impossible for proper Dáil scrutiny to be applied.’

People are not entitled to suddenly open doors without checking - Judge
#driving #MobilePhone #cycling #harming irishtimes.com/crime-law/cour…
This happened near Memorial Park, Islandbridge, Dublin.

The van driver’s door suddenly opened in the path of the man travelling by bike.

The injured man said the driver had been on his phone while seated in the van as he heard him speaking on it just as the door opened.
He was catapulted across the road. The driver had come over to him and said: “I didn’t see you. Are you okay?”

Decisions of ABP can be struck down by the Court.
There is an exceptionally short time limit to get Court permission to mount a case - just eight weeks from decision date.
That period may be extended by a Judge for 'good and sufficient reason'.

This week the Govt is pushing 'urgent' amendments to the Planning Act. They could propose allowing more allegedly tainted decisions to be reviewed by the Court.
Instead as Fred Logue shows, they are making Court challenges even harder.
Who benefits?
TDs were given 48 pages of 'urgent' changes on Friday, to be voted through, mostly with no debate, this Wednesday.

While all the media focus is on a No Confidence motion.

Building a Guillotine should need planning permission, shouldn't it?
