Martin: SF trying to exploit housing crisis for political gain

Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald said the Government 'does not have a plan' and will 'sit on its hands'

Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald said 'an entire generation has been locked out of affordable housing'.

The Taoiseach has accused Sinn Féin of attempting to "exploit the housing crisis for political gain".
