Honoured to be nominated by members from across the island of Ireland for the Green Party Deputy Leadership election.

In the face of climate breakdown, housing crisis, rising inequality, and global uncertainty, the Greens are needed more than ever.

“So now you have the Gardaí, the AI Minister and multiple legal experts including @iccl.bsky.social saying the legislation is all there already - it’s going to be increasingly difficult for the Government not to take a position on this”.

Should Elon Musk & X be held accountable for child sexual abuse materials? Yes.

Should all Government reps, politicians, state agencies, be off X? Yes.

Are we doing enough to tackle gender based violence? Absolutely not!

Wrote a piece covering all that and more 👉 www.thejournal.ie/readme/elon-...
Hazel Chu: Grok creates fake, sexualised images without consent and government is OK with that?
The Green Party councillor says the government’s decision to turn a blind eye to AI generation of sexual imagery without consent is not innovation, it’s negligence.

📢🌳🚶🚲 Have your say on DLR Connector!

DLR Connector would see 6km of new segregated cycle lanes and walking facilities.

I really like this project, but the Council want to hear what you think about it. More: evadowling.ie/dlrconnector

Consultation closes on July 15th

See you soon Budapest 🏳️‍🌈

Wishing everyone in Dublin an enjoyable, empowering and safe Pride this weekend.

I'll be joining the (now banned) parade in Budapest, in solidarity with our LGBTI+ siblings in Hungary. We won't allow Viktor Orban's scapegoating of minorities to row back our rights ✊

Yesterday we members of the Advisory of the National Action Plan Against Racism held a discussion with civil society on racism & met with the EU Commission Lead on Anti Racism Michaela Moua. The Government is failing in our fight against racism and needs to prioritise the implementation of the plan!

We're very sad to hear today of the passing of Benny McDonagh, who ran for the Party in the 2024 local elections. His warmth and decency will be remembered fondly by all in in the Carlow-Kilkenny Greens and wider party.

I've seen these "post-Greens roads splurge" headlines off the back of last week's announcement of road funding for councils outside of Dublin who don't fund their own local road maintenance.

This is standard annual funding that was increased every year by the last Minister for Transport too 🤭

Well done @hazelchu.bsky.social on a great campaign! #Seanad2025
Commiserations to @hazelchu.bsky.social whose recount today did not go in her favour. To the naysayers who say she’s not wanted in Irish politics, she came fourth place in a hugely competitive race. It was extremely tight. She’ll live to fight another day.

A very credible 4th place for @evadowling.bsky.social in the NUI Seanad Election :

Michael McDowell 11,390 (Elected)
Rónán Mullen 7,452
Alice Mary Higgins 6,872
Eva Dowling 3,239

Definitely something to build on here. #Seanad2025
