Planning refused for proposed development of 65 houses in Roscommon | Roscommon Herald
Roscommon County Council has refused a planning application to erect 65 houses at Lisnamult, Roscommon. The refusal further outlined that it has not been demonstrated that the additional traffic movements arising from the proposed development would not adversely affect the capacity, safety or operational efficiency of the national road network. The proposed development would, therefore, be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area. The proposed development, if permitted, would adversely impact on the residential amenity of future residents and the residents of existing Abbeyville housing development. The proposed development would therefore set an undesirable precedent for similar types of development and would be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.

Progress made in DUP talks but no timeline for return of Stormont: Heaton-Harris
Tanaiste Micheal Martin said fiscal challenges for Northern Ireland are growing and a restored Assembly is needed to tackle them. The DUP has been blocking powersharing at Stormont for more than a year and a half in protest at the internal UK trade barriers created by Brexit’s Northern Ireland Protocol. The powersharing institutions in Northern Ireland cannot function without the involvement of the largest unionist party. I could go further and say we are in the final, final stages of this. He said: “I think the people of Northern Ireland deserve that.

Examining the truth behind Daily Mail’s reports of terrorists crossing the Channel in small boats
Such stories are the bread and butter of The Daily Mail. This is because all arrivals in small boats are considered illegal, and those who orchestrate these arrivals are guilty of trafficking. The Daily Mail had to publish a front-page correction and internally issued disciplinary notes to senior staff. Overall, The Daily Mail articles that claim small boat migrants are terrorists risk crying wolf. The implicit notion is that these small boats are filled with barbarians seeking to destroy Britain.
