Homeless people, Anti-Austerity Alliance occupy Dublin estate

Homeless people and Anti Austerity Alliance (AAA) members have occupied the site of a Nama-funded housing estate under construction in Castleknock, Dublin.

The group, including AAA TD Ruth Coppinger have entered a property at the Diswellstown Manor site, opposite the Castleknock Hotel and Country Club, where 156 homes are under construction. The protesters want the estate to be used for social housing.
