The doorway close to Leinster House where Jonathan Corrie was found dead last month
A sleepover.
Hosted by Sinn Féin Dublin City councillor Chris Andrews.
He writes:
Homelessness not just about getting a room in a hostel. It needs more than that and Government needs to provide the services that are needed. Particularly addiction services and Mental Health services. We will be meeting outside the Dail on Kildare Street at 8pm and sleep out overnight to highlight the need for action. So lets wrap up and sleep out…

Didn’t sinn fein councillors vote against increasing homeless service budget somewhere recently?
Yes. In your imagination.
In Dublin, SF voted for 15% reductions in the property tax(for everyone, including millionaires) while Labour and FG sought to maintain the property charge and use 15% to fund homeless services.
And Chris Andrews is the former FFer who hid behind a fake Twitter account.

You’d almost be tempted to go down to Kildare Street this evening to see if urinating on the homeless is all it’s cracked up to be.
That made me laugh. Poor old Chris Andrews… The least able of the clan. I think his invites are often overlooked for family shindigs.

Hopefully the Dail wifi will still be accessible so Chris can promote his campaign on twitter.
I recognise that this is a solidarity thing, but Councillors could do far more quality work on this problem within office hours and not following a sleepless cold night on a doorstep.
Quiet, effective work doesn’t do much to raise the profile, Hoop.
Yeah, a photo of Dublin councilors hard at work at a desk won’t really make the papers. Governing isn’t sexy.
Maybe Chris Andrew can ask his pal Bashar Al-Assad for some ideas?

The cheap cynicism of those who put up the “Shame on You Enda” sign is cringeworthy

Sinn Fein is a collection of scumbags. Shame on anyone who votes for them.
Hey Chris, where`s Jean Mc Conville sleeping tonight?
in a shallow unmarked grave somewhere.
