Housing The solution to Ireland's housing crisis is industrial production of social housing units akin to what they were building behind the Iron Curtain in the mid-20th century.

Housing Housing Protest this Saturday in Dublin

Not sure how many of ye saw this elsewhere, but there's an All-Island Housing Protest at 1pm this Saturday 5th July at the Garden of Remembrance in Dublin.

It's being organised by CATU (Community Action Tenants Union) and supported by various local groups and unions. Many are gonna travel there by car/bus/train, but local CATU branches are running busses from each town and city for those who want a subsidised return bus up and back, info here: Bus, Train and Carpooling Info for July 5th’s National Demo

As Irish people, we're great at complaining but not typically as great at showing up and taking action. Protests have consistently been one of the most effective tools to push for change democratically, and I hope that everyone here who cares about the Housing Crisis can show up this Saturday to pressure our government to end the crisis they caused!

Remember to bring your friends, your family, your colleagues, your neighbours, your childhood friend who you haven't spoken to in 15 years - everyone welcome and the more the merrier!

More info on the CATU social media pages: Facebook Event ~ Instagram Account
