Apartment complex on East Wall Road to be named after Spanish civil war hero and East Waller JACK NALTY. At this mornings CAC I proposed this.(Seconded by Cllr Perry). Fitting tribute to a great republican, socialist and trade union activist.

COBBLESTONE PLANNING REFUSED. A great day for the Cobblestone, Smithfield and Dublin. A great day for our rich musical culture, our language and our heritage! #Cobblestone

GARTH BROOKS SOLD OUT! Just had a look at ticketmaster site at 8am. Queue of over 130,000 for tickets for Saturday gig!

Great to hear ALL of the Irish women soccer team singing Amhrán na bhFiann with pride. A great example to all. We’ll done any Ath Mór in the match and the rest of the qualifiers. @FAIWomen @RTEsport

CONGRATULATIONS/ COMHGHAIRDEAS TO ELLEN KEANE - ANOTHER NORTHSIDE GOLDEN GIRL Great to see huge crowds along the seafront to welcome home Paralympic GOLD medal winner Ellen Keane this evening. Just like Kellie Harrington. Ellen overcame some of the obstacles life threw at her.

CONGRATULATIONS/COMHGHAIRDEAS to Jason Smyth @smyth_jason on his GOLD medal in the 100m today. ( number SIX!!) Great coverage by @RTEsport and great to see Joanne O’Riordan on the panel. Met her when I was @LordMayorDublin - inspirational, clever and great sense of humour.

FREEDOM OF DUBLIN CITY FOR KELLIE HARRINGTON I HAVE CONTACTED THE LORD MAYOR AND ASKED HER TO NOMINATE KELLIE FOR THE FREEDOM OF THE CITY Kellie’s achievements must be formally recognised with her being conferred with the highest award the city can give - the Freedom of the City

KELLIE HARRINGTON INTO THE OLYMPIC FINAL The dream goes on as @Kelly64kg wins her semi-final . A very close contest, but Kellie won on a split decision Roll on Sunday morning. Up early again but it’s certainly worth it! Comhghairdeas Kellie. GOING FOR GOLD!

KELLIE HARRINGTON WINS AGAIN - OLYMPIC BRONZE MEDAL GUARANTEED What a brilliant performance from @Kelly64kg as she beat the Algerian Imane Khelif in the Olympic quarter-final boxing this morning. THIS MEANS THAT NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS KELLIE IS AN OLYMPIC MEDAL WINNER! 

KELLIE HARRINGTON WINS FIRST OLYMPIC FIGHT. It was certainly worth getting up (or staying up) to watch Kellie Harrington win her first fight in the Olympics. She is now into the last eight and is one win away from an Olympic medal. Tús maith leath na hoibre.

EMMET BRENNAN LOSES TO OLYMPIC FAVOURITE BUT PUT IN A MAGNIFICENT PERFORMANCE. Emmet has just been beaten by Ruzmetov of Uzbekistan in the Olympics. Emmett did himself, his family, the North Strand, the North Inner City community, Docklands boxing club and his country proud.

FORZA ITALIA. I wonder which Micheál Martin is more upset about – Italy beating England, a team he publicly supported, or the sub 5% FF performance in the Dublin Bay South bye-election? Bad weekend for our Taoiseach anyway. #EuroFinal #ItalyEngland #ItsComingRome #Azzuri

This is an unbelievable statement from our Taoiseach. I hope it was on his own behalf and not in any way on behalf of the people of Ireland. Maybe he should concentrate on getting his party’s vote up over 5% instead of ignoring one of our EU allies. FORZA ITALIA

CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN - all of us who were watching the Denmark Finland game are hoping and praying that Christian Eriksen will be okay. His collapse on the pitch has put everything into perspective. Irish football fans and everybody else here is praying for you Christian.

KELLIE HARRINGTON OLYMPIC BOUND Our very own world champion @Kelly64kg is now on the Irish Olympic boxing team and will be heading to Tokyo next month. The North Inner City continues to “punch above its weight”. Go n-éirí leat Kellie. Táimid an-bhródiúil asat.

Late Late show with families of Ballymurphy victims was poignant. Does anyone think that ourTaoiseach Martin should apologise on behalf of the Irish government who “stood (idly) by”while Irish men and women were murdered? Not just Johnson! @RTELateLateShow

IRELAND SCORE A GOAL? Am I dreaming? No, I think it actually happened! No drink taken - yet!

ANOTHER STABBING IN OUR AREA 15 year old stabbed on Samuel Beckett bridge an hour ago following running battles between south side vs north side youths. We all hope he’s ok.
