    A better grasp of housing issues than the current one.

    Unless you have been in a coma even FG acknowledged he had good ideas about housing.

    Why, can't be any worse than Eoghan Murphy who was a disaster and hope loses his seat.

    Are people so naive to think that a change in minister will resolve the housing crisis. There are so many factors that are outside of the control of one individual.

    A change of ideology might make a difference to begin with, after that there is new perceptive.

    Eoin O’B.

    The only man who makes Eoghan Murphy seem like a prole.

    Looking forward to seeing SF putting their policies into place regarding this issue.

    I can almost taste the lemon off that post. 'Prole' indeed as if any FG member would be happy with that application.

    I'm waiting with interest to see if Eoin O'B gets it.

    Does he want to sit in opposition writing books about how it should be done or does he want to be the minister and actually make the decisions.

    Meh, if o broin gets it landlords will leave the market in droves. They are already but it'll compound the lack of supply.
    If yer renting just stop paying it'll probably be illegal to evict tenants with him!

    Then the should be made sell the house at a reasonable price. No selfish git should be allowed leave a house unoccupied as some kind of "statement".

    When a Tory government is calling time on buy-to-let property spivvery, maybe it's time to take your head out of your a*s.

    you honestly think ideology played any role in housing policy this past number of years ?

    every crank and malcontent must be listened to in this country when it comes to planning objections , start with that obstacle

    Well there's 6 houses to rent in drogheda on daft at the minute, population 50k iirc. Landlords are clearly calling time on it over here.
    If o broin got the gig i guarantee more anti landlord stuff would come in. This time next year there wouldn't be one house on daft!

    Your looking at it the wrong way. It would be a great victory against the landlord class. :pac:

    the priority of the left (which includes SF , the activist and QUANGO sector as well as the media ) is to punish landlords , helping tenants is secondary , hence why o broin will do nothing for the plight of those seeking accommodation , unless of course you dont work , your probably sorted then

    Indeed but a privately educated recipient of all things privilege is going to be less clued in that most.
