Watch: Simon Harris confronted over homelessness while on Dublin canvass

A People Before Profit supporter confronts Taoiseach Simon Harris about the homeless and housing crisis on Dublin’s Capel Street

Taoiseach Simon Harris has said “housing is a massive priority” after being told he should be “ashamed” at the number of children who are homeless during a Dublin canvass.

Kieran Allen, who is a former lecturer and a member of People Before Profit, said that Mr Harris should be ashamed at the homelessness figures, which have risen to almost 15,000 people.
