We’ve now been living some version of a housing crisis for two decades.
First there was the Celtic Tiger and its crazy house prices. Then there was “the crash” and its ghost estates. Now there’s the booming economy and the lack of supply.
The latest effort from the Government is a rewriting of the rules around rent pressure zones, but it will take years before we know if it’s a good plan or not. The man who is now centre stage of trying to fix the housing crisis is ‘the quiet minister’ James Browne. Is the success of Fianna Fáil riding on his shoulders?

But what was a nice return on investment for the 45th president of the US is mere pocket change for the 47th. Initially sceptical of cryptocurrency, Trump has boarded the gravy train and profited lucratively from his endeavours, dubbing himself the “crypto president”. But, at what cost?
