Louise O’Neill challenges politicians to volunteer in homeless shelter

One of the most influential authors of her generation has encouraged Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and Housing Minister Eoghan Murphy to spend a day volunteering in a homeless shelter.
Award-winning author and columnist Louise O’Neill, whose book Asking For It challenged society to confront rape culture and issues of consent, said spending time on the frontline of Ireland’s homeless crisis could challenge our political leaders to approach the homeless crisis differently.
