Vague pronouncements concerning other cuts, and a nod at the fiction concerning Sinn Fein councillors only drawing average industrial wage? Oh Sinn Fein, never stop being so hilarious. Socialist Party can be just as silly of course; just without the arm dump maps.

mickydoomsux wrote: » The estates, unfinished though they might be, belong to someone in most cases so the government can't just roll in there and finish them and start housing people in them. Even with NAMA'ed estates the aim was to recoup some of the money that was borrowed to build them so they were looking for buyers rather than tenants. It isn't a simple matter of just handing over the keys to an empty house and letting someone have at it.

Possibly not a popular opinion but I ****ing hate them and what they stand for, ultra violent national socialists..., except they blame Brits, bankers and the middle class..instead of jews

Do you realise that the money will have to come from somewhere else, specifically by a huge increase in taxes? Please tell me exactly where you think the current government are hiding the money you think should be spent on housing? I look forward to your reply.
