Daniel Sullivan, an Irish firefighter and father of two from Tramore, has been battling homelessness with his partner for three years. 

Despite working, he and his family struggle to find affordable rental accommodations in their town of 60,000 people, where available properties are scarce and quickly overwhelmed by demand. 

He notes that Ukrainians with government support can often outbid Irish renters, driving up prices.

Sullivan recounted confronting the Minister of Housing about homeless Irish firefighters but was subsequently ignored after receiving the minister's contact information. 

He also stated that after speaking out about his housing struggles to local media and politicians, he was penalized by having five years removed from the housing list. His partner also lost their combined five years of housing list eligibility.

Sullivan contrasted his struggles with the perceived preferential treatment given to migrants, suggesting it incentivizes Irish citizens to leave the country, despite government claims of wanting to retain youth. 

He highlighted his service as a firefighter and his past service in the British Army, including a tour in Afghanistan.

Please support our independent journalism on Ireland's migrant crisis!

Ezra Levant is travelling to Dublin, Ireland, to expose the truth about the country’s migrant crisis — a story the mainstream media refuses to cover. With a population of just five million, Ireland has issued 775,000 passports this year alone, flooding small towns with military-aged men and silencing locals who dare to object. Ezra’s one-day mission will cost about $1,800, and unlike the CBC, we don’t bill taxpayers — we rely on you. Please help crowdfund this essential journalism. Thank you for your support.
