Sailors in the navy forced to bunk on ships as can’t afford rent

Young sailors who can’t afford soaring rents are sleeping in cramped bunks onboard ships when they’re off-duty; while some soldiers who have to commute long distances to work are sleeping in cars to save money.
PDForra says the only way to prevent this from happening is for the Government to give poorly-paid personnel a rent allowance, which gardaí and prison officers get.
