Taoiseach denounces ‘dishonest politics’ after Social Democrats leader says Government blames Opposition for its own ‘abject failure’
a report compiled for the Cabinet has found that the Government has potential to build at least 60,000 “affordable” homes on public landsMs Cairns said despite “lofty promises” from the Government, the Land Development Agency had yet to “deliver a single home on State land”.
The Social Democrats leaders also said Mr Varadkar’s “attacks” on the Opposition had become “as predictable as they are weak” in relation to objections to new house builds.

“But Deputy [Cairns], it’s a little bit precious for you to say that nobody can say anything back to you,” Mr Varadkar said. People Before Profit TD Richard Boyd Barrett said it was “utterly shameful” that some Independent TDs were “horse-trading” with the Government over local issues in exchange for their support.
