Ireland's housing crisis 'one of the longest and most severe the country has seen'

Ireland's ongoing housing crisis is the one of the "longest and most severe" the country has seen, a housing campaigner said.

Macdara Doyle claimed the housing policies brought in by successive governments have failed to tackle the crisis.

On Tuesday, the Raise the Roof campaign announced plans for a series of regional and national public meetings on the housing crisis over the coming weeks.
