UPDATE!

The spirit of solidarity very evident on the street outside the Dail... some interesting visitors during the night so far...

A certain Senator Terry Leyden, Government Front Bench Spokesperson for Enterprise, Trade and Employment happened to chance on our protest. His surprise at the vision of so many homeless people gathered together was quite amusing. He maintained that in 2005 there was absolutely no reason why there where homeless people in Dublin or anywhere else in the country for that matter. This was a wealthy country and the money was there to end homelessness...

So we will take him at his word then so...

The people gathered in protest against the shortcomings of his government quite rightly pointed out to him, lucidly and vocally the continuing indifference of his party and government to those consigned to the streets...

Senator Terry Leyden publically pledged to me and those gathered around that he would meet me outside the Dail at 1pm to tell us the answers that he would seek as to why homelessness existed.

He has pledged that he will ask those ministers responsible why 237 people 'officially' sleep every night rough on Dublins streets...

We will await his answers with bated breath...

He is right that we are a wealthy country, he is right that Homelessness shouldnt exist in Ireland...

Now it is the time for him and others in the Dail to make available adequate funding for existing services and to develop and support new initiatives in combating homelessness and houselessness in Ireland....

Senator Leyden made these pledges publically, recorded on dictaphone and for Liber8 FM, we will transcribe these and broadcast his intereaction with our homeless people asap. It certainly makes for an interesting encounter.

We would urgently appeal for anyone free at 1pm to come down to the Dail to hear his replies!
