The gridlock in supply is not going to be solved by immigration. If medium income people already here cannot compete with newcomers working in tech etc for whom new expensive apartments are being built, hard to see upside.

How? Existing supply rising slower than increase on population in need of housing; currently a slow down of new properties at a time of high immigration?

I wish it was as you say but high levels of immigration in recent years, in the absence of corresponding rise in the availability of housing, especially affordable housing for rent, is imposing a social cost on society, particularly in Dublin.

Guess what!? My biography of Henri Bergson will be available in paperback NEXT WEEK (June 19th)! John Banville called it "the most intellectually stimulating book I read this year" and the NYT called it "lively and deft". Get your copy here (or don't I'm not a cop): linktr.ee/eherring

BIG BIG news for us - this is a former hardware shop ( O'Doherty's in Patricxk Street, Templemore town Tipperary. The new home of our much larger warehouse for @thebookshopie.bsky.social , AND.. a used bookshop in the two story part - called 'The Book Temple' ( see what we did there? #templemore
The exterior of our new and future warehouse home - on Patrick Street, Templemore, Tipperary Ireland - the former O'Doherty's Hardware. The new bookshop is in the part on the right ( under Builder's Providers' ) as it was. Interior of the shop looking out to Patrick Street. The building is long so this makes it look narrower than it is , with bookshelves on both sides and the inside of the front door on the left

Ego-bruised genocide scholars squabble while world burns: a tragic farce. It matters not a jot if Gaza situation is or is not declared a genocide coz that brings no relief for obvious suffering of people - which is what is urgent & should consume all our energy www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...
