Like I said in another comment, AirBnB's account for less than 1% of the housing stock in Dublin. You'll have to find a different scapegoat.

1% of housing stock is misleading. Generally speaking, a 3% rental vacancy rate is considered healthy. Effectively, AirBnB is consuming 1/3 of the total available rental pool if it consumes 1% of housing stock.
