It was with profound sadness that we learned today of the death of Manchán Magan. The Irish language has had few greater champions in the modern age, with such enthusiasm, empathy and deep cultural understanding. Go raibh maith agat, a Mhanchán, agus suaimhneas síoraí ort.

Do the thousands of people in emergency shelters think this is funny? or those trapped on Council waiting lists? or those paying rip off rents? or those living in their parents box bedroom? or those forced to emigrate? Joking about the housing crisis is never "a good answer"
