Is it any wonder that renters are 2nd class citizens, treated by Govt like feudal peasants when 99% of the Dáil are homeowners. Renters need proper tenancy rights to stop them being evicted into homelessness. Will the only two renters in the place speak up for us? #the2eoins

@JohnBurns43 The man is utterly clueless and fundamentally doesn't understand public service broadcasting. I had occasion to eavesdrop on a conversation with him talking about RTÉ. A ludicrous appointment.

@rtetwip @martinheydonfg @RTEOne This is nonsensical. People want housing & hospitals not guns and jets. More jaw-jaw not more war-war! Why is Limp Micky Martin's mid life crisis dictating the direction of Govt? We need a referendum on neutrality aswell.

@EOBroin @MichealMartinTD @fiannafailparty Your party has landlord TDs & won't call for an end to landlord TDs voting on housing, which is a conflict of interest & the root of housing dysfunction. Are you opposing rent increases? Rents need to be cut btw! Still nothing on renters rights from your party? Half baked as per.

@AnMailleach @Independent_ie I don't subscribe but agree with the headline. Did you mention no hustings? Flat dwellers aren't canvassed so our views never heard (often renters) & politicians should answer to the public. In the UK there would be several per constituency- they're a staple - here, barely any.

A ceasefire in Palestine, ending the war in Ukraine and upholding peace in NI are all in Irish, American and international interests.

@RoryHearneGaffs @RebootPod @Trickstersworld I assume nothing for renters from your party of homeowners in this chumcast? And nothing on Eoin Hayes? Put him out of his misery so he can speak up for renters as an indie at least, something your party (& all other opposition parties) have spectacularly failed to do. Thanks 👍🏻

@Goatofmcginty @cilliandoyle87 No, we should have senators from the North. But from a PR perspective bringing in someone with IRA convictions gives a certain impression. And the first thing he's suggested is ludicrous. Giving millions of votes to the diaspora would not be a good idea.

Is there any update on this @OCallaghanCian @SocDems? Renters are very interested to know, given you don't represent us. @independent_ire can you offer @Eoin_Hayes a speaking spot in your group please to force this issue (& give him speaking time if they're not taking him back).

TERRIFYING. Renters have no security of tenure & rents unaffordable (& go up by 4% a year even in RPZs). Opposition parties don't give a fuck & take part in the charade about building, whilst ignoring immediate & desperately needed solutions. The media are the same. WE'RE FUCKED.

@jimobrienMSc @ciarannugent @TomClonan He's often to be found writing in the Journal in support of permawar in Ukraine, so no. He's good on disability but let's not hear from him on defence. The Journal need peace consultants, not security consultants btw.
