'The Government is united in an ideology of a fundamental disregard for the working people of Ireland.' Ireland needs radical change from a left-wing Government to resolve the housing crisis, according to protestors in Cork this afternoon.
SIPTU organiser Adrian Kane said the housing crisis will only be resolved by the election of a left-wing Government.
“Lifting the eviction ban and waiving development fees. It will continue not to listen because it comprises parties that are united in an ideology of... a fundamental disregard for the working people of Ireland. “We need radical political change,” he said."We need, for the first time in the history of our state, a left-wing Government.”
“That will mean parties and organisations genuinely working together, putting aside doctrinal differences, to do what is right and necessary for all people resident in Ireland,” he said.In its manifesto, Raise the Roof called for a State-led housing programme focused on affordability and the retention of all public land for the delivery of “public, affordable, and cost-rental homes”.
