      The only way that LUAS even remotely is usable by ordinary law-abiding people is the presence of heavily built mostly Eastern European security personnel, probably hired at great cost by the operator, paid by the taxpayer and fare payer to keep the less law abiding people at bay. I seldom go into the city centre now since I have had a fall and now LOOK OLD. Human nature being what it is most nefarious individuals will not tangle with a middle aged or young man, no matter how blind or incompetant he may be in physical confrontations. They do not know the capabilities of a younger man around the town but can easily guess the vulnerability of an older man and most women. Having more police would be great but the force cannot attract enough new recruits as it is. Same with bus drivers, front facing retail and nurses, basically any sector in a public facing role are all finding it very hard to attract new recruits to replace or grow on existing people.

      I studied my masters in urban planning, my thesis was around the Dutch city centres and the ease and practicality of walking, cycling and accessing public transport and how it opens so much more space for people. Dublin lacks that ambition but it does make for a really high quality of life.
      I don't want to be rude but I think this hesitation is just because people by the the time they're in their late 30s or early 40s get set in their ways and don't like the concept of change. So they look for an excuse to bat away alternative ideas. Labelling it a conspiracy theory is sort of mad, but I guess we all need a hobbie.

    Yeah an improvement in the public transport would be massive.
    Encourage more apartment building, walking and cycling initiatives just like London, Paris and Vienna is doing.
    The increase in Garda presence would be great but I think some more fundamental work needs to be done long term to stop the stream of social issues coming out of areas like East Wall or Sheriff Street onto the city centre. Having guards will deter crime short term but it won't fix the root problem.
    There is sadly a lot of negativity in Dublin, coupled now with racism and plain stupidity. A bit of pragmatism amongst everyone would go a long way.
