Hate when people leave their rubbish behind
But the city is shocking for providing suitable outdoor spaces for people. Even to just stand around, nevermind with seats, bins, toilets ect.
If the drinkers on the canal or Drury St or Portobello etc etc had different accents, this sub would consider them the most terrifying menace to ever ruin Dublin’s streets.
The tone on these threads is always “omg just give people somewhere to sit! God forbid someone has fun in the city!!1”
The council and the guards and the shop owners and the residents whose gardens are filled with piss don’t mind people having fun. But it’s not “normal street life” to have a horde of fucking barbarians full of booze screeching and dumping shite everywhere.
It’s not suddenly progressive and European just because the selfish pissheads doing it have middle class accents.
Thank god at least now Covid is over we’ll be spared the painful takes that trashing the city is somehow class warfare because the poor angles doing it don’t have homes big enough to entertain in.
Just stop being wankers!!
‘Drinkers’ 😆
If you wish to volunteer and help keep the Grand Canal clean, there is a group that meets monthly to do a cleanup.

And similar for the Royal Canal.

Great people, good fun and a fantastic way to make friends with some decent people.
Mods, hope it’s OK to post these links here. Relevant to the topic I believe.

Literally just put some bins out
This happens every single year, the council are morons
Not surprising. The cycle lane was blocked solid with young happy humans at 19:30. And Irish people aren’t as housetrained as other nations; it doesn’t occur to them that their rubbish is their business and they should bring it home.
I walked home this way yesterday evening it was like a music festival

Same shit every year, just put bins and shit there when the weather gets good.
Council are fucking useless
It’s funny how there is no issue with public bins in any other European city – the municipal authority put lots of the out and encourage everyone to use them. But that doesn’t happen here, so strange…but let’s forget about that and just blame the young people for being pigs and not using the non-existent bins.
This is one of those “on the one hand, on the other hand” things. On the one hand: When you go out for a few drinks like this, you should absolutely carry your garbage with you. On the other hand: There should be public spaces, packed with bins, and with sufficient cleaning resources available to service them, in a modern European capital city.
Irish people just don’t have respect for the areas we occupy. It’s unfortunate, but true.
No return deposit on glass was a mistake, the place would be cleaned out of glass and itd just be cardboard packaging.
Since iv moved to Dublin it’s been the same moaning about drinking here every year and yet there’s no extra bins installed, must be out of budget for it in the council
Council: More hostile architecture needed!
