While doom-scrolling on YouTube recently, I came across a very important video. This video was a short documentary exposing how the government uses excuses such “destruction of the beauty of the area” to deny vital supports of the native populations of Irelands island systems. This excuse echos similar bullshit spewed by the government when denying planning to Irish people on their own land while other projects, such as horrible looking prefab cities that house unlimited non natives, are fast tracked, approved and over funded. Candidates in Mayo for the upcoming general election such as Stephen Kerr should make this issue a centre piece of their campaign. I will let the video, which you can find below, speak for itself.

I love Bertie's work - its always top class, well researched and presented. Thanks for this Stephen
Very poignant film encapsulating the hulk smash of the country and the duplicity.
