Our response to BBC News on the story of attempts to impose the gondola project on Rostrevor. We sent the below comment with photograph (March 2025) of an “infrastructure” of crumbling barrels of concrete on the shore side of Mourne Coastal route between Rostrevor and Killowen.

Cartoons to give people a lift. When council officials and their cheerleaders go into pantomime mode, they must prepare for the sound of very loud laughter in their ears. Sign the petition to say NO to the gondola in Kilbroney Forest Park, Rostrevor ⬇️ change.org/p/say-no-to-go…

“Who will champion the voices of the people, demand that projects align with community needs, and ensure that proper consultation and transparency guide the council's actions moving forward?" An excellent letter from Jim Boylan. Public confidence in NMDC has hit rock bottom.

"Tiocfaidh ár gondola” How much more reasoned pressure and backstory is required before NewryMourneDown decision-makers and their cheerleaders come up with an alternative proposal for their £45 million white elephant Mourne gondola project in Rostrevor?

Respecting the environment involves respect for all life on earth - human life included. Our respect to all who protest peacefully for a return to human empathy and sanity, as witnessed yesterday on The Great March for Gaza in Newry.
