Can Sinn Fein fix the housing crisis or is it beyond them or anybody else?

Five years in DCC.

The link confirms DCC was let with 1300 less units in 2019 than in 2014.

Incorrect on "debunked".

You are trying to blame a government that was even formed for a couple of years during the period so try again on that one.

Plus if you knew anything about politics, at a local level FF and FG worked as totally different parties as always. You would have been better trying to throw labour under the bus as well when I gave you that option but you didn't even realise it was a FG/Labour government from 2014-2016

In the Northern everything is supposed to be DUP fault, in Ireland it is FF and FG. Recurring theme here with Sinn Fein. Always someone else's fault.

So a government only in a few years are held to a lower standard than a DCC in a few years, were FF/FG combined had more seats but you claim SF were in charge. Also the other day you said the council was powerless. At least you conceded the less housing was absolutely due to demolishing and sales to tenants. Not sure why you pretended it had anything to do with SF.

In the North now with more made up claims. Ironically, currently it is the DUP.

I read your link that made you look foolish and responded to that.

It's awful how you are delighting in high homeless numbers.

You refuse to acknowledge FF and FG run DCC and its worse :) 😃

Not a great day for you.

Its clear FF/FG are okay with the crisis getting worse once there's money to be made privately.

All any new government need do is move away from FF/FG policies and towards building social and affordable.

You will get told you can’t hold Sinn Fein accountable for doing nothing for 24 years in the North

Like DCC it wasn’t their fault

”finger pointing politics” I call it and Sinn Fein and supporters are famous for it

1300 less units, disgraceful 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

For a person that accuses everyone of deflection, usually for no reason, are doing an excellent example of what defection actually is on this thread

You didn't have a problem when a Sinn Fein TD didn't pay rent for a number of years to a charity or didn't bother paying it back to any housing charity when she got her TD wages.

People are complaining about companies buying houses for rental market, people are complaining about the local county council buying houses for social housing, why do you think people are not complaining about charities buying homes?

The poster above is correct that charities buying housing is increasing demand on the market place.

I again refer back to previous point, supply is how to resolve the market. Political parties blocking and slowing down project is the main issue in the market at the moment. Something which you want to ignore.

DCC ending up in a situation with a huge population growth in the capital and after 5 year with 1300 less houses than they started with in 2014 is also a huge issue. In the middle of a housing crisis, that is a disgrace
