Dozens of Ógra Shinn Féin activists attended the Right to Work Protest outside Leinster House again this week.
At the rally outside the Dáil, hundreds of protesters heard a first hand account of how a young family were forced from their home in south Dublin due to their inability to pay mounting debts.
Speaking at the protest, Dublin Ógra spokesperson Mark Ó' Maoldomhnaigh said:
"It's great to see so many people turn out here at the gates of Leinster house to call on the government to do something about the current crisis and to initiate a job creation campaign. However, If we want real change it is the Fianna Fáil TD's who need to be out of a job. They are not interested in helping out ordinary people - they are only interested in keeping their fat-cat pals onside."
"We have seen bankers who have plunged this country into billions of debt getting bailed out by the government, meanwhile a young family in Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown are evicted from their house because they are unable to pay their bills. It is a complete disgrace!"
"A national jobs demonstration will take place in the coming weeks and we would call on everybody who is fed up with this government and fed up with being unemployed to take part and let them know what you think."
