RIGHT TO HOUSING AMENDMENT
(delimiting the right to private property)
& THE HOMELESS CRISIS
Homeless Crisis
The Irish govt. caused the homelessness & housing crisis by the following policies.
-
Giving incentives to multinational corporations to buy up Irish homes (causing increased rents and raised house prices). 95% of apartments were sold to investment companies in 2019. ‘Vulture funds’ have been banned in other countries.Giving public land to private developers and
-
Making it impossible for local authorities to build.
-
Not providing social housing at cost price.
-
Not dealing with rent control and unfair evictions.
-
Not building public and affordable housing on govt. owned land (NAMA have enough land to build 80,000 affordable houses but are building and selling units at maximum profit, fuelling rising prices).
Q: why have successive Governments not built sufficient affordable housing.
A: It does NOT serve the interests of international financial corporations.
RIGHT TO HOUSING AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION
(delimiting the right to private property)
If passed this will ‘delimit’ people’s private property rights (confiscation/compulsory purchase of homes, land etc) for the ‘common good’ (decided by the state) to provide housing for ‘Residents of Ireland’ (not citizens, so anyone living here).
A right to adequate housing is already established in international law, other countries have legislated for housing while keeping the right to private property. Leave Our Constitution Alone

(World Economic Forum)
This is a Right to Housing bill, it only gives you the right to be housed somewhere not the right to own your own property. It will ensure that Irish homes are owned by global financial corporations not by Irish people The property of ordinary citizens in Ireland could be seized but as we all know, the State will not
seize the property of the multibillionaire foreign investors.
What can you do:
*Read through the Bill online: https://www.oireachtas.ie/en/bills/bill/2020/21/
* Contact TDs to ask the govt. to stop playing about with housing in theory/on paper and take immediate action without taking away the right to own a home.
* Discuss with your family & friends and look out for meetings locally
CRIME & OVERPOPULATION
For decades foreign nationals have been welcomed and integrated into Ireland. Real refugees from war torn countries are still welcome as long as we can accommodate them without destroying our own country, this point has now been reached. Never before have refugees been given more rights than Irish citizens, (this is anti-Irish racism e.g. putting non-citizens to the top of the queue for getting a house, social benefits etc; this does not happen in other countries).
What can you do: Let TDs and local government know that you support the right of homeless Irish/refugees already here for many years to be housed first.
We now have lots of unvetted, undocumented, single, male migrants from countries where there is culturally no respect for women, this increases sex crimes. From 5/1/2023 to 19/2/2023 (46 days) 32 of these men were convicted of rape/sexual assault (3 serial rapists, 2 gang rapes, 5 taxi drivers, assaults of young girls of 10, 13, 14, and 15-years old as well as a Down Syndrome girl) Many more cases have not been reported to Gardai. The media and Gardai are complicit in hiding what happens. Gardai forced a Dungarvan family to remove a Facebook post warning women to be careful after an attempted gang rape of a family member.
