We urgently need a referendum on the right t housing.
Updating our Constitution would help the thousands upon thousands of people who need homes and those who rent and own a home. With this update, we’d have a better functioning society as #HomeMeansHope. #HomeforGood

We stand with @HomeforGood_ & call on the Government to hold a referendum on the #RightToHousing!
We need a stand-alone, enforceable right to housing in the Constitution to ensure progressive & effective housing policies across governments.

MLRC is a member of the @HomeforGood_ coalition calling for a recognition of the right to housing in the Constitution. A right to housing would oblige the Government and future Governments to take real action to solve the housing crisis. #HomeMeansHope #HomeforGood

Ireland’s housing system is broken. We need a stand-alone, enforceable right to housing that supports progressive and effective housing policies across governments. Threshold supports @HomeForGood_ 's call for a referendum on the right to housing. #HomeMeansHope #HomeForGood

Really excellent article from Mary Heavey of @CLMirl on the Right to Housing.
A referendum on the Right to Housing "represents a crucial opportunity for the Irish people to fundamentally and radically re-shape the State’s housing policies"

Why a Right to Housing?
We were founded on the value that Housing is a Human Right. We strongly believe that a #RightToHousing could will benefit all in Ireland.
If you agree, we urge you to use your voice and tell the @HouCommission: threshold.ie/campaigns/right…
Deadline: Sept 2nd!

‘Taoiseach Micheál Martin has argued the Government has been given legal advice that an eviction ban would be unconstitutional’
The current imbalance in our Constitution is blocking the State from protecting people from homelessness by eviction. (1/2)

Lovely to speak and connect with colleagues working towards introducing a right to housing in Wales yesterday afternoon.
Amazing to see growing momentum towards the right to housing on an international level.

Interesting article from Eoin Ó'Broin on the constitutional right to housing - a cause for which MLRC is a strong advocate.@HomeforGood_

A constitutional right to housing would place a legal obligation on Government to progressively realise peoples right to secure, appropriate & affordable accommodation.
Read my op-ed from last Sundays @Independent_ie on the value of a right to housing. @MLRCLaw @Home4Gd
