In Lebanon. Can hear the Israeli drone constantly now. I’ve only been back for a day but folks here deal with it 24/7, for months. It’s psychological torture. You can even see it, just flying around. The Israelis want to let everyone know that they can kill whoever they want whenever they want.

Hong Kong fire and Grenfell are just alike. Fire spreading through unsafe building materials installed due to penny-pinching, killing dozens. One difference: before the HK fire is even out three executives at contractors have been arrested, eight years after Grenfell no-one has been arrested.

79% of homes sold in Dublin this year were bought by landlords, 75% by large landlords. About 1 in 5 TDs are landlords.
This is disgusting dog whistling. The problem has never been people seeking asylum. The problem is people seeking to endlessly profit from folks just looking for a home.

This is an emergency that requires a response equivalent to the measures adopted to address the pandemic. We need to keep protesting and encouraging this government to do better, while working to ensure they're ousted at the next general election. #Spéirgorm
The number of people in emergency accommodation increased last month to 16,614.
According to the latest figures from the Department of Housing, 11,376 adults and 5,238 children were in emergency accommodation in September.

There's squamishness naming who is doing this:
It's LRC Group in London via subsiduary funds in Cyprus. They have 2000+ homes here and evicted 100s of people. Their gombeens in Dublin are called "Home Club Limited" run by Michelle Savage (ex NAMA wheeler and dealer).
