I didnāt say that homelessness was a good thing.
All I ask is for you to have a bit of perspective on things and stop following the lazy social media buzz that Ireland is the worst place in the world.
Iāll not change now.
I wax talking to a young lad today who was complaining about how hard it was to get a flat. I said it was like that when I was young. Youād look up the small ads in the Evening Press and by the time youād got out to the kip in Rathmines itād be gone. Ah no says your man, itās much worse now. I thought to myself, how the fuck would you know?

Oh sure if the app says there arenāt any apartments, well there couldnāt possibly be any apartments.
Thereās been so much noise made about The Great Homeless Epidemic, itās surprising to see thereās only 6,000 of them about. It feels like that number should be in the low milluns. New Zealand is a similar size and has something like 40,000 homeless people. You canāt move in Auckland without falling over some fella panned out on a strip of cardboard on the street.

A lot of these young wans could still be at home living with the mother/father but would rather sleep in a hotel calling joe duffy everyday waiting for their free gaff.

The planning labrynth in Ireland is causing significant issues for international investors. I was in the Mid West of the USA last week (I omitted to log it on the international business trip thread for confidentiality reasons) where this was relayed to me on more than one occasion.
