A UN report on housing has been called a "wake-up call" for the Government by the leader of Sinn Féin.
She said the report condemned the Government for "facilitating the financialisation of housing by providing preferential tax rates to corporate landlords and by standing over weak tenant protections". She asked the Taoiseach to accept Sinn Féin proposals to introduce a three-year rent freeze, and to support legislation by her colleague Eoin Ó Broin which would prevent buy-to-let landlords from seeking vacant possessions.
He dismissed a claim by Ms McDonald that the Government was wedded to the ideological view that the market would sort out the problem.

UN team to investigate 'unspeakable' massacre in MaliA United Nations investigation team is being sent to Mali to investigate a massacre of civilians, which left over 150 people dead, the UN Human Rights Office has announced. You conveniently left out the part where the Dogon militia were acting under the approval of the Mailian armed forces and the attack was seen as retaliation for the attack on the UN base. Moussa Keita has been removed but it doesnt change the fact that this was ethnic cleansing. You might want to get an independent source about the background of the militia that the Irish Army are training ... The ARW deployment would be seen as an act of war and every bloody terrorist nut would relate that to Ireland.. No bloddy way...

Agreed👍👍. Not just teenagers either! Let's be clear here, it's not technology that's causing a massive increase in depression in teens, it's the way they are being manipulated by various different platforms and influencers. Don't blame technology, blame the people, and more importantly, hold them accountable.
