I've lived in some houses that have been converted into multiple flats and I cant stress how dysfunctional and uncomfortable they are. Forgetting issues like space and privacy, you don't just double or triple the strain on a building's water, sewerage and energy needs without issues. #spéirgorm

A great time to remind everyone that the largest landlord in the Gaeltacht is now a British company letting Airbnbs.
Watch now they'll call me an elitist for bringing up that lucht na Gaeltachta are often at a severe disadvantage in terms of housing and opportunity and they don't get much support outside of their own community

Our language was rooted out of our country by our colonisers in a specific effort to LITERALLY make us less Irish and more like them instead.

Housing should be free and we should be, at minimum, compensated for commutes to and from work.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

They've voted to gut protections that would have made businesses check and report their supply chains for child labour, human rights abuse or nature destruction
