Tell me you’re a gobshite without saying you’re a gobshite.

Refugees *are* in housing need.

It’s not an abandoned property, it’s a building undergoing renovation so people can live there. The irony of trying to combat the housing crisis by delaying works to create housing
The building appears to have been “meant for Ukrainian refugees” since about Tuesday afternoon.

This is a ridiculous propaganda campaign.
Ukrainian refugees are not part of a ‘moneyed class.’ These West Brit Corbynites are beneath contempt.
Sure let the Ukrainians join them, squats are good for everyone and those Ukrainian women would probably make a show of them.
This is pretty shite, wtf like. Embarrassing.
They think they deserve free housing so they can smoke weed, drink and party for free in a building that the owner is actively renovating to house women and children escaping a brutal war with nowhere to live? They can fuck off
50% of free housing is turned down because it’s not in a location Irish people want. The entitlement…
What an own goal
From the article:
‘A spokesman for the Salvation Army said the charity had offered the building as a premises for accommodating Ukrainian refugees. Essential works were being carried out to turn it into an emergency shelter, he said.’
‘However, activists associated with the Revolutionary Workers Union, a socialist republican organisation, took over the building on Sunday, international workers’ day.’
Claims made in this thread that homeless people simply moved in as a protest against the ‘moneyed class’ and that the Ukrainian claims by the landlord are a PR face-saving exercise are cynical and false.
This is a political group scoring an own goal at the expense of women and children fleeing war. It’s not ‘Tory propaganda’ when the political group you approve of is actually doing wrong.
