We've had a housing crisis here for years before the ukraine war as well as a floundering health system and just stretched resources across the board. The only government department that is run well is, ironically, the revenue commissioners who collect taxes.
The increased influx of ukrainian refugees as well as the usual trickle from the rest of the world has put additional strain in these areas. The government has known of these issues for some time and will continue to accept asylum seekers and refugees even though the dog on the street knows we are at breaking point.
There are some who will tell you that there is 160,000 vacant properties in ireland. What they dont tell you is that these properties, for some reason or another, are detalict and are not suitable for habitation.
