    The government said police and other officials were removing people from tents that first appeared about a year ago on Mount Street in the centre of the capital and moving them into accommodation.

    This is all due to the government systematically undermining Irish social housing and enabling predatory landlords. There wouldn't be a migration crisis if there was ample space to live. We have one of the lowest population densities in Western Europe, and we're rich enough to solve these problems easily, but no, the government just wants us to be a tax haven for multinational corporations

      @@houseplant1016 We already have austerity dude. The housing crisis is so severe here that it’s actively impacting the corporate sector that the country relies on for 25% of it’s tax revenue, they can’t recruit and they can’t retain. The reason the government isn’t taking action is because their voting base is disproportionately private landlords and small business owners. I’m not forgetting the 2008 crisis, it was the botched response to that that led us here in the first place. We settled our debts short term but completely failed to invest in future infrastructure

That’s well over 250,000 unregulated, undocumented people we know nothing about p/y. If you drop a drop of red dye into a bath full of water, it doesn’t show up. If you pour a bucket of red dye into the same bath it changes it instantly forever. There’s much to be said for gradualism.
