'The Government isn't listening' - Thousands take to Dublin's streets to demand action on housing

Thousands of protestors took to Dublin's streets this afternoon calling for an end to the housing crisis.

Around 3,000 people marched on the Dail as part of the Raise the Roof protest, calling for the Government to address the housing crisis. The demonstration came just a day after record homeless figures of 11,397 were released by the Department of Housing.

Sinn Fein Housing Spokesperson, Eoin O Broin, took part in the protest, which made its way from Parnell Square to from 1pm. He told Dublin Live demonstrators were taking to the streets for the sake of the 3,480 children who were among the damning homeless figures.
