A tent is not a home
Reality is this is what life is like for so many people in Ireland while homes lay empty everywhere
In fact within stones throw of this tent in Cork there are numerous vacant & derelict properties
Church & state are amongst the culpable
Shame on them

Wtf is going on? Why are the government de-funding public transport??
“The government keeps talking about infrastructure and enabling infrastructure – and they’ve just paused one of the big infrastructure projects."

Four-year delay to major upgrade of Dart network 'flies in the face' of best practice
It was hoped construction could begin on Dart+ South West next year – that’s now been pushed out to at least 2030.
