Irish Examiner View: Too much housing stock tied up in regulation

We can agree that President Higgins’ comments on housing are unexceptionable, but a new approach to solving the crisis may be needed.

The problem with having a symbolic head of State is that they are sometimes tempted to become a talking head.

Last week we had Prince Charles criticising his country’s plan to deport illegal immigrants to Rwanda as “appalling”. Now President Michael D Higgins has described Ireland’s housing crisis as a “disaster” which represents this country’s “great, great, great failure”.
