IRELAND: National Demonstration On The Housing Crisis

 The National Homeless and Housing Coalition have called a national demonstration on the housing crisis to take place on Saturday December 1st at 2pm.

After the massive success of the #RaiseTheRoof rally, on October 3^rd – when we had 12,000 on the streets outside Dáil Éireann. The National Homeless and Housing Coalition have called a national demonstration on the housing crisis to take place on December 1st at 2pm.

Grass roots groups who are; campaigning, providing front line services, and advocating for action on the housing crisis have come together, to call for water style demonstrations to put pressure on the Irish government.

We will be on the streets of Dublin on December 1st to tell the government that we will not be ignored. –

After October 3rd we got a landlord’s budget, and an abject failure to act on the Dáil motion that called for:

Radical action on the crisis,
Accelerated programmed of public housing on public land,
Additional 1bn euro funding in the budget for housing,
End to evictions,
Reduction in rents
To hold a referendum to enshrine the right to a home into the constitution.

Please spread the word about this event:

Call people
Email people,
Send it to them on social media,
Take your tinder date
Tell your mates in the pub, school, place of worship, or anywhere else you can think of.

We will see you at the National Homeless and Housing Coalition demonstration on December 1^st at the Garden of Remembrance  at 2pm.
