1639530015837794305 | Eviction stories: ‘I’m 80 years old and facing homelessness’ - excellent piece by @PatrickFreyne1- where will these people go? https://t.co/O0prFHuXbp | 10 |
1639206401904898048 | Hahahaha!! This is brilliant @PatrickFreyne1 https://t.co/fIDe8g1gr5 | 3 |
1639635620325621763 | Thank you @PatrickFreyne1 for sharing these stories and dealing with this topic with such sensitivity. Depaul is continuing to protect those who are most vulnerable during this stressful time. 📰 Have a read of the @IrishTimes piece on the #EvictionBan here 👇 https://t.co/AgNiVhk7wU | 3 |
1639590297448464387 | @PatrickFreyne1 It's this tricky little bit of nuance that they find hard to keep in mind: landlords by definition already own a home | 2 |
1639298955337949186 | @PhakeJakeHowell @PatrickFreyne1 Just an amazing tune. https://t.co/TaI3RYNwMW | 2 |
1639592118736781312 | @PatrickFreyne1 “well regulated market” is the operative term - families can live securely, affordably & comfortably in rented accommodation in most other European capitals because the norm there is for long leases, right to remain, rent controls & spacious apartments 🤷♂️ | 2 |
1639731115018649602 | Great piece by @PatrickFreyne1 highlighting the real impact the current housing crisis and the lifting of the eviction ban has on families 👇 https://t.co/NXlvqUTfP1 | 1 |
1639605692725067777 | @PatrickFreyne1 I recall our government saving our banks in about 6 hours flat from imminent collapse in 2008. I also recall March 2020 when, in the awful days before the vaccine, they put the country into lockdown to save the most vulnerable. It's odd they can't act on the current emergency. | 1 |
1639574411752636416 | @PatrickFreyne1 The result is overly dramatic, utterly dumb in parts (the holodeck works while the ship is running out of power). It's still better than s1 and 2 though, and it's enjoyable in the same way a very unhealthy takeaway is. The Shaw character is one of the best things about it | 0 |
1639592217407901697 | @PatrickFreyne1 “You may need a roof over your head, but landlords are entitled to huge profit on their investment too, ya whinger” is an unhinged point of view. | 0 |

1639693989136723968 | ‘This isn’t my failure… It’s a structural issue. Food, water, housing, they’re basic human right’. Speaking truth to power by actor Jessica Freed in @IrishTimes Powerful read by @PatrickFreyne1 #HousingCrisis https://t.co/LorxDqjeWs | 8 |
1638687886814978049 | @VillageMagIRE @MichealMartinTD @MichaelMartinTD just like Village Magazine did nothing about Bogus Self Employed contracts - and I spent enough of my time emailing both of you about these contracts. At least the @IrishTimes did publish an article - @PatrickFreyne1 was the journalist - so thanks to Patrick | 7 |

1639209418658119681 | When future historians want to understand just how deeply crazy these times are, they could do no better than reading @PatrickFreyne1’s reviews of reality television. https://t.co/pmbNk24DBC | 5 |
