Ryan Tubridy: Bring back telethon event to ease ‘Strumpet City style' poverty in Ireland
“We’re hearing about families staying in B&Bs and children having to be put up in hotels. It sickens me and it scares me and it appalls [me].
“Children are doing their homework in a hotel room and it’s not right. That’s Strumpet City not Dublin City in 2015. The kind of carry on has to stop. It’s gone too far and it’s out of control. I think we need to bring something like Children in Need to RTÉ,” said the broadcaster.
