The housing crisis is a result of a for profit, developer led government policy that only considers affordability and suitability an after thought
Here is some practical advice to challenge evictions, but most importantly, organise with @CatuIreland don't fight it alone!

Parties are using the plight of refugees and asylum seekers to draw attention away from the failure of this government to undo their failed housing market policies
Punch up at those benefitting from our suffering not those escaping from war, harm and violence.

Má dhéanann tú aon cuardach ar na meán sóisialta Pobal Seachas Brabús tá Gaeilge ann.
Críochnaigh mé díospóireacht as Gaeilge an seachtain seo chaite mar ní raibh aon rud eile déanta as Gaeilge i cathair Luimnigh i rith an toghchán agus na mhaith liom an teanga a chur chun cinn.
Leagan Gaeilge den suíomh?❌
Leagan Gaeilge den fhorógra toghcháin?❌

100 years of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael has led to crises in health and housing and a cost of living crisis that is leaving people cold and hungry.
We need radical, socialist change to improve people's lives—and that starts by ditching the duopoly of FF&FG

Tá sé thar am ag Rialtas na hÉireann beart de réir briathair a dhéanamh agus dul i ngleic le hIosrael mar is ceart. Smachtbhannaí, ruaig a chur ar an ambasadóir, cosc ar eitleáin agus armlóin dul fríd aerfoirt agus aerspás na hÉireann.

This is Simon Harris engaging the Disabilty community.
By engagement I mean ignoring.
As with the scoliosis scandal he is only interested in soundbites and TikToks. Nothing meaningful comes from him or his government.
Poverty and deprivation increase and that’s the truth.
Cír reminds him he never responded to the coalition of Disabled Persons' Organisations, including us, who contacted him after on becoming Taoiseach, regarding a meeting with his new cabinet committee on disability, but is willing to meet with someone when there was bad publicity
ALT Image description: A screenshot of queer_cir commenting on Simon Harris’ video where he talked about a new willingness to talk to the person who confronted him about disabled and carers policy in a viral video where he was dismissive and defensive of them and walked away: Cír said: “I have to admit I find your apparent willingness to speak to people only when there is public outrage infuriating. However when DPOs across the country reached out to you to speak about disability issues you never even responded to our collective invite. And when TDs from PBPS raised the ignored request for meetings in the Dáil, you dismissed us and suggested we needed to be patient. If disabilities were the top of your priority you would think meeting Disabled People from DPOs would be a priority Sincerely an advocate who fought to scrap your parties ablist green paper and to scrap the discriminatory means testing of disabled people and our carers"

On November 29th vote for a left government - for our care workers, for our teachers, for the thousands forced into homelessness by Fine Gael.
The only party guaranteeing you that they will not use your vote to put Simon Harris back in power is People Before Profit. Your vote is a secure vote for change with us. #ge24 #anotherirelandispossible #peoplebeforeprofit

Today is the first day I can properly campaign—had to give 2 weeks notice for time off
I got leeway to attend some events during the day but a short election campaign excludes workers and benefit the status quo
There's a reason the Dáil of full of landlords

The electorate have seen the chaos and the crisis of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael - from record homelessness to children abandoned by the state and left inoperable by the failings of this government.
People deserve change. These parties who have offered the people of Ireland nothing but disaster for decades should not be worked with. Their ideas have played out in our hospitals, in our homes and their mark has appeared on a growing number of bills and eviction notices across the state.
We need a left government that will work for ordinary people first and take on the profiteers and the speculators who Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael have put ahead of the entire country day in and day out.
The time for change is now, vote PBP 1 and know that your vote for change is not a vote for Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael.

Government housing policy has been about boom and bust, speculation and greed, squeezing families into unsuitable homes or shackling them with obscene mortgages.
We need to develop universal public housing to ensure secure, safe and affordable homes for all

"The Government's doublespeak on Palestine is shocking."
"You've done nothing. For years. For years."
"The Palestinians want sanctions, Micheál".
@RBoydBarrett cut into the Government's spin on last night's leaders' debate. #RTÉUpfront

In the answers many parties have given on @WhichCandidate they use cybersecurity as an excuse for closer ties with NATO threatening our neutrality
See my deep dive for why this is a false choice if we want to achieve real digital security

Tá a dóthain againn tar éis céad bliain le Fianna Fáil agus Fine Gael
Má táimid chun fíor athrú a fháil sa tír seo caithfimid tosú le rialtas nua ón eite chlé a cruthú
Tabhair do vóta do Pobal Seachas Brabús ar on 29ú Samhain.

This is the typically patronising Green Party message - ‘evidence based policy’. ‘Evidence’ on its own cannot determine policy where the criteria of success are themselves politically contested

My pledge to support Palestine and pass the Occupied Territories bill
The OTB isn't enough though. We need an arms embargo, and end to exports of dual use technologies to Israel, which have increased in the past year.

Ireland is complicit with genocide so long as our government facilities the US in their support of Israel
