The fear is they’ll be on Daft in twenty years for 3k a month…
Instead of protesting to have modular homes for our own homeless as well thry choose to protest to have no homes for anyone. Why?
Ah, easy target mentality. Always gives a good indicator of a persons intelligence.
I am sure there are more right leaning reasons for this that haven’t come to the fore quite yet, I’m sure in time the fascism will show itself.
The argument of overloaded estates doesn’t really hold water, they have a huge.buikding program already going on by the liffey.
Scum
I think every farmer is missing a trick if they don’t think about knocking a few of these up in the next while. If we could just relieve that pressure on the rental market, give people a chance to save up a deposit and get a jump on the building we could be in a very different place in 10 years time.
I’m working in Dub + house sharing with a couple of mutants, I’d literally bite your hand off for a modular home in Kildare. I’d be willing to go up to 1.2k/month as well if it meant a place to myself. My god this country is so fucking grim, soon as I get a job offer from abroad I’m gone and I’m never coming back.
Delighted people are standing up to this nonsense. I might join them
Is there an underlying grievance here? It wouldn’t be the first time the government fucks a load of refugees into an area that is hopelessly unable to deal with their influx.
Again, all thanks to Patrica Ryan SF sending out 600 letters to local residents and sparking this particular fire.
Thanks a lot Patricia, you genius.
I live in Newbridge. Not in the area affected but it seems like a really stupid place to put refugees. I’d be worried about how appropriate it will be for them.
UKrainian refugees can’t live in their parents gaff. They can’t stay in their brother’s spare room. They can’t kip on their mate’s sofa bed.
Yes, it would be great if every Irish person who needed a house could get one, but at least most of them can be sure of a roof over their head, even if it’s not their’s. Ukrainians don’t have that safety net.
I can understand why people would be upset. Direct Provision is a shambles, students are dropping out of their degrees because they can’t find accommodation, homelessness is a record high. In light of all that, it looks like the government is doling out preferential treatment for the sake of optics, but it’s a slippery slope to begin blaming Ukranian refugees for a situation they didn’t exactly ask for. The far right will feed on that anger and use it to sow division.
Another provocation by russians living here lol? “Noreen O’ Shea” yeah right komrade
Jesus christ Sinn Fein ( Patrica Ryan stirred this pot writing to the residents ) really are the Irish MAGA .. should have hats on saying MIGA .. The sad thing is they create the stink taking advantage of circumstance and unfortunates but dont have any real manifesto . We can laugh at American and British politics but our own is no better.
Shame on the selfish Newbridge citizens protesting this. What fucking right do they have to dictate where and what war displaced people fleeing genocide live in.

Modular homes might quickly fill the gap.
