Labour targeting building one million homes in a decade, says Ivana BacikParty leader addresses conference in Cork, condemning Government’s ‘catastrophic’ failure on housing Would they ever FO Have they only just noticed? Did someone from their poverty-stricken front bench just end up at risk of homelessness? Have they stopped objecting to housing in Dublin yet? Cork City will stretch from Crosshaven to Kerry County bounds soon because Labour intends to use construction producer credit to close the gap for a short period leaving us with even more embedded costs !

Labour leader Ivana Bacik calls for ‘structural revolution’ in housing provisionSpeaking to delegates in Cork, she accused Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael of 'perpetuating an unequal Ireland'. Half the audience responded enthusiastically… the other dozen or so were busy filling out their SocDems application forms lp23 These woman from vast wealth, who spent her life on giant money being taken care of in academia, who couldn't get elected so was always given a Senate seat, and needed huge media favours to finally get in, bemoans inequality. Connolly would be proud Short memories in labour. In coalition with FG they created inequality and now they think, even Kelly does, that people have forgotten their dirty deeds during their time in Govt. People haven’t forgotten and never will.
