      If only he were in a position to do something about all of those things

    2. Varadkar used to constantly do this too. You’re in power FFS. It’s literally your job to address these issues not talk shite about the reasons they’re happening. Absolute muppets.

      > Harris’ comments were met with scathing criticism, with many pointing out that those seeking international protection are not actually counted in the monthly homeless numbers.
      >
      > “Yeah, but Ireland is full!” Harris tripled down before chanting, “get them out, get them out”, while taking out an Irish tricolour and praising himself for taking ‘the flag back’.
      >
      > Meanwhile thousands of Irish families currently in emergency accommodation have asked the government if they could kindly build at least 3% of the 9,300 social housing they promised to this year, that would be a start.

      Why is it that a satirical newspaper can be more incisive than the Times and Indo? There’s no way Harris didn’t intend this whole story to be some sort of dog whistle.

    4. Irish politics is nothing more now than maintaining power and not being attached to actual institutional outcomes. The problem is we vote for these fuckers

      It’s sad how a satirical news site holds the government to account more than actual news/media outlets. But it’s not surprising.

      Small misdirection – IP applicants are not counted in homeless figures, but beneficiaries of IP or TP and other migrants who are homeless are counted in the figures.

      Only 54% of homeless people in June were Irish, the remainder were EEA/UK or Other (23% each).

    8. “No, it’s not our housing policy we’re fucking up. It’s actually our migration policy we’re fucking up”

      I don’t understand – what does immigrants have to do with the infamous Children Hospital?

      Aren’t developers the ones taking us for a ride with our tax money?

      Inward migration is a fundamental cause of the housing crisis – The population would be stagnating and falling without inward migration.

      Equally though it’s a fundamental reason for economic success and why the country has a strong economy.

      Migration has its benefits but it also comes with costs. There is no free lunch in the world
