I think all my old mates emigrating because there were no jobs between 2008-2014, and then most of my new mates emigrating between 2018-2025 because there are no gaffs, has had a greater effect on social cohesion than migrants

Truly shameful that close to 6,000 children will spend another Christmas in emergency accommodation in Ireland
Truly shameful homelessness has become a massive industry in Ireland
F*ck the property hoarders & all those making money off this structural violence & vandalism
#DerelictIreland #SpeirGorm
So much potential for homes wasted for a decade while people die on our streets
Shame on all the owners for hoarding while also destroying our streets with this vandalism
Time for use it or lose it across Ireland so everyone has a home

At the DCC budget meeting last month we learned that Dublin City Council spends €400mn out of a €1.6bn budget on homelessness. It is a colossal business.

Studying the #Cork Northern Distributor Road proposals it looks like it will decimate many proposed parks on the northside of Cork city. Murphy's Rock, the North West Regional Park (Hollyhill), North East Regional Park (Glanmire), Lee Fields extension. All get similar treatment. (1/n)

One lad who'll risk their life going across the English Channel in a dinghy in the hope of some shit minimum wage job instead of living at the absolute bottom rung of the capitalist exploitation ladder is worth a 1000 commentators who keep trying to tell you to give in to fascism just a little bit
