More than 100 activists from across Ireland joined the Save Lough Neagh campaign today in a dramatic action at a Moy Park chicken factory in Craigavon, Co Armagh, highlighting the major role of factory farming in “killing Lough Neagh” and accelerating climate breakdown.

… In a theatrical set-piece at the Moy Park chicken factory gates, the activists appeared to vomit green sludge, highlighting the health hazards of blue-green algae and the ecological devastation of Ireland’s lakes and rivers.

Joining activists from Communities Against the Injustice of Mining including Save Our Sperrins and TreasureLeitrim this morning at Farnham Estate who are hosting Irish Mining & Quarrying Society, a group who represent toxic extractivist interests including Dalradian.

Great morning with activists from about ten groups under the Communities Against the Injustice of Mining at Farnham Estate protesting the Irish Mining & Quarrying Society golf day and €125 dinner. The message to IMQS & all potential investors is loudly that mining is a toxic industry, not wanted anywhere on this island.

From Cavan to Leitrim, Tyrone to Tara and from across the island we say No to Toxic Mining 🚫‼ As Flintridge/Galantas host games of golf for their mates, the communities threatened by their toxic imposition stand up for their rights, and our future ✊

INQUIRY SUSPENDED! In adjourning the Inquiry the Commissioner acknowledged that the process has been 'beseiged with difficulties" including Department for Infrastructure "failure to follow its own legislative procedures." Provisional Mid-Inquiry date 26th March. Greencastle5 OurLadyofLourdesPS

A public inquiry into plans to build a goldmine in Co Tyrone has been suspended because the Department for Infrastructure 'failed' to follow their own legislation & didn't notify the Irish Gov over 'transboundary' issues. The Commissioner said it was 'deeply regrettable'. #UTV
