I just wanna say that if the tents belong to emmigrants or refugees then they can most certainly destroy them. If they belong to homeless irish people....that's wrong. There are no houses here as you know. I am too frightened to even set foot in dublin city with all the bastards there.....who get free this, free that, while us irish people have higher bills to pay, higher food prices. not enough doctors or health care..... which costs me around 200 euro each time I go. Dentists cost me 150 euro every time I go. I don't bother going to any dentist now as a result. I only get disability weekly but it's not enough to last me even just for q week. It's so little The government don't give a s^^^ about medical cards which I used to have. Not anymore tho.... its all money Money and more money now

The foreign invaders seem to have no such problems. But here in Galway they get free sleeping bags to sit begging in shop doorways, once the punters are gone they take their money and make a call to be picked up and brought to their houses.our own genuine homeless are camped out of sight as many are embarrassed by their circumstances. I have had personal experience of this due to a narcissistic Landlord whose greed and avarice ruined my health and almost cost me my life. Thanks be to God and only God I have somewhat recovered. The government bodies tasked with ensuring the standards of private rental accomodation failed me. After many complaints and requests for an inspection of the property, I was forced to pay an engineer to inspect it myself. I was advised to leave the property if it was not immediately made safe. I presented the engineers report to the Council who informed me that they would arrange an inspection within three months. I moved into a van and was told I had made myself voluntarily homeless and put back to the start on the housing list.

Compassion is slowly dripping away, something we were always known for having in abundance. These poor people don't want to go into the hostels because of the sheer terror that goes on in them. You can't sleep. You will get robbed, attacked, threatened, coerced etc.. Its not a kind place (was in them on off in the late 00s). Thats why many of these people prefer being in tents. Now we are taking that away from them. Its beyond grim. The Government were quick to build modular housing for Ukrainians tho.

Life is challenging and a lot of young single men struggle. So many unskilled jobs have left Britain and Ireland. Homelessness is a terrible struggle and how do you help yourself without a place to lay your head at night and nowhere to put even the most basic of belongings.I saw tents around the church grounds in a Welsh town. All gathered around the biggest Church in the city. They were not disturbed.Many food banks in the UK feed thousands. I don't know much about Dublin but this situation is awful.
@bogtrotterErin6 ай бұрын
Thanks for your comment and I’m glad I’ve given you a glimpse. Food is not a struggle on the streets as there are many places giving food, however these places tend to be thriving with drug dealing etc so they tend to not be ideal for those not abusing substances or say for those with families. Tents are all around the streets of the town centre, stretching out from the cities through our parks and even up into our smaller mountains and coastal regions close to Dublin. The problem there is that in these further afield or isolated regions there is little or no safety for the dwellers should the wrong people find them. The tents stay in place for periods of time until the council cleans them up. The hostels tend to be drug dens (even though they forbid entry with alcohol) and even the most hardened don’t like staying in them at times. They prefer to stay in groups in central locations in tents. If you watch my other videos I’m sure you’ll see what I mean. Dreadful saddening situation.

I contacted several homeless charities to offer theraputic services voluntarily, as part of my university course which would provide supervision. Not one homeless service got back to me or showed any interest in providing this service to people who might benefit from it. The help is out there, there are people training & qualified willing and ready to offer supports within their merit of capabilities but for what ever reason, the people in charge are not utilising this!

I’m impressed how the Irish homeless have such neat surroundings! Even in the worst circumstances, their civilized conduct is evident. Google Los Angeles, San Francisco, if you want to see homelessness coupled with degradation, that does not have to follow! Even, some of our least fortunate are. “Spoilt”!

Tented cities are on the rise. My heart goes out to all who are poor and all on the brink of despair. In powys Wales a lot is to be spent on social housing so that may be good, also an offer to buy back former council properties at true value. Our current cost of living is far too high for many on minimum wages, the majority, and people have too many barriers to jump even to get work. Its awful to want a job but then be grilled for too much like references, e mail addresses when not all have computer confidence etc. Its frustrating to even open bank accounts for some slow learners like my son who tried to transfer his cash from lloyds because the high street bank is closing and he is not tech savvy. He wants work but is voided because has no one for referees. I, too, would even find it hard to get those as guess lack of close friends in a new area is the reason. Its a cold world this new complex one of computing. We are all in a queue and stuck there it seems. God bless and comfort all you tented community!

Thanks for your comment. As a bare minimum, do you not think the council can afford an area for homeless tents to be pitched where some food and washing facilities are provided. Homelessness aside, Dublin is filthy right now. The litter is shameful. I don’t think the homeless are the cause that majorly affects neither crime nor cleanliness. The general public manage that all on their own.
