@@seanoceallachain it wasn't as bad as that in the past. There was a time when renting was a lot cheaper than buying. I'm not talking about just Ireland, it's happening all over the world. I have friends living in the middle of Berlin. The live in an apartment that is rent controlled and it's a lot cheaper than buying. The husband took over the lease from his parents so the tent has only gone up by inflation since the early 50's but if you want to rent a place in the centre of Berlin now it's the same as everywhere else. Look at all the apartments in Dublin owned by investment companies! Houses should be classed as a necessity not an investment!
Good to see Ireland is relatively the same nick 50 years on… The majority of the population of Ireland vs corporate turnover in Ireland currently is an utter disgrace. The politicians literally have no shame. Things are about to get much worse sadly.
Irelands obsession with social housing has not changed a bit what a concept you get on a housing list hoping to get a house that is subsidized by your fellow citizens that to me is morally wrong they think the government is a nanny state if you stand on a corner and hold a sign "Free food for the hungry" you will have a lot more hungry people than you did an hour ago.
What complete and utter nonsense. The core solution is for Ireland to do what the successful housing systems do in Europe, such as in Austria and Denmark, where social housing is provided for a broad range of incomes and anyone is entitled to access social housing and municipalities and not-for-profits are supported by the state to borrow and build significant numbers of housing every year. In these countries, between 25 percent and 40 percent of their total housing stock is non-market, not for profit or social housing. In Ireland, just 10 percent of our housing is social housing. An "obsession" with social housing would actually be very helpful right now, but it's unlikely this will become the case any time soon.

The big difference now, is the outrageous price for housing, whether to rent or buy.
Renting is throwing money at a wall that you'll never see again.

Housing crisis some things never change it seems
The interviewer was the RTE veteran John O'Donoghue

@@Mostrichkugel Actually yes. I knew something felt off when I was typing it.
@@Ligerpride There were no jeans or T-shirts in public then and no trousers on women.
@@Mostrichkugel
Wait, are you concerned with women wearing pants?
@@monkeybudge Of course not, I have just mentioned a fact.

So you think the council houses built before and after WW2 was a mistake?
So the alternative would be to starve? Correct.

You should try punctuation. It’s great!
The shame is when the Irish got rid of the English the reptiles crawled out of the rubble.
What about the Ukraine?
😂😂😂
Yes. What about it?
Ireland was neutral in WW2. Different world now. Watching RTE news now - you would mistake it for Ukrainian State media.
@@randyborstol2491 you should look up the reason we were neutral. Your not going too like it 🤣🤣
@@macattack619 Why do you think?
And theirs still a houseing crisis today🤣
