    Shame on whoever is behind that (€2,800 per month for a room full of bunk beds). Although clearly when it comes to shame, they have none. The unfettered greed of the land-owning class will be the death of this country.

  2. The greed is vile, but fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

    These students do little to no investigation into Ireland, the cost of living, the housing crisis.

    They arrive, pay big money to unregulated language schools and then work shitty jobs to pay for shitty accommodation.

    The language schools should provide housing along with their fees.

    These special language visas have to stop.
