    What about interviewing Irish people? 35,000 homes are being built for 'refugees' while Irish families go homeless. The 'unlimited amount of 'refugees' are all housed in a few months and full welfare yet Irish families are becoming homeless daily. Irish Students can't find accommodation either. The government have contempt for Irish people.

      Irish people will be passed over until they start burning down government buildings and threatening elected officials, because violence is the ultimate form of coercion to get what you want. It's the same all over Europe, in my own country I was on a wait list for social housing for 8 years until I was about to end up homeless because of rising rents in the private sector. I knew I was constantly getting passed over by "refugees" and it pissed me off. A month before becoming homeless I booked an appointment with the social worker in charge of my file and I told them straight that I had been waiting for 8 years and I had enough of this garbage, and that if I end up homeless I will take my revenge on this unfair society and bring down with me as many people I possibly can. She clearly took my statement very seriously because 1 week later they found me a home in a very nice brand new community. Europeans have been pacified over the last 70 years, but remember that violence or the threat of violence will always get you what you want 🙃

      Well, most Irish people are immigrants. Do a DNA test. You might be shocked. Most immigrants are a result of western policy of screwing with poorer nation's. By bell ends that call themselves "politicians". The UK screwed the Irish over. Plenty of Irish living in America now. It is unfair and disingenuous to say otherwise.

    there isn't a 'prejudice' by landlords, there is a fear that, after having been left with a property you can't sell and corresponding mortgage (tax on rental income took 0 account of negative equity regardless of whether the property was purchased as a primary residence), you will be left with a tenant who stops paying rent, refuses to leave and causes damage to the property - this is why landlords choose one tenant over another! everyone has heard and witnessed these situations play out

    I left Ireland a few years ago and the main reason was mainly the houses crisis. In my opinion if you want to build a family it is crucial to get your Home. I am really disappointed that Irish people are not complaining with their government. This situation can be fixed if politics work in the right direction, but neoliberalism with their corporation is ruling Ireland. No one cares about Irish and foreigners. Just system slaves.
