    Blah blah blah, council estate with a few bad families.

    Hardly worth a thread in itself.

    Runs Cold has a point. You just linked to an article and made no comment about it. In fairness, it's not easy to post a constructive reply when you've given us nothing to reply to. Could you at least give us a few lines out-lining your opinions about the article? You might get some better replies that way.

    This?

    The spokesperson said the tenancy unit at the council was doing everything it could to get some residents at Fairview Crescent to moderate their behaviour and there were a number of legal cases pending.

    I'd say they would want to cull their behaviour rather than moderate it

    One of the families who left is taking legal action against the city council apparently, for failure to provide duty of care

    Mr O’Hanlon said the law needs to be changed so that families who are evicted from council estates for anti-social behaviour cannot get funding from the HSE to acquire private rented accommodation.

    This is a bit ridiculous, it's just a case of shoving the problem around. I beleve that all the trouble-makers should be placed in one council estate, away from the decent people in other council and private estates.

    Ahh Fairview Crescent pops up again.

    For those with long memories, just think of the young girl who drove a robbed van to Henry street garda station so she could get a chase. The same young girl who slashed a woman's face with a bottle near Clare street. The same young girl who has made the local papers for other vicious attacks, and the same young girl whose family have been running people out of that area for the last few years.


    It would seem the one family, and that girl in particular, are in the papers on a very regular basis for one crome or another, yet it seems that ordinary people are the ones being left to suffer whilst the people committing the crimes in this case are left off scott free.

    I hope that the family that is said to be taking legal action against the city council succeeds in their action, at least then the threat of further actions may spur the city council to actually act on anti social and dangerous behaviour instead of turning a blind eye.

    I would love to see them all living in one estate. See how they would cope when faced with someone more dangerous than them

    Preferably a ghost estate in Longford but we're stuck with them for now.

    I think they would want to just cull them full stop.

    I really think it's the only way, maybe, just maybe they might cop the f**k on if they know they are in last chance saloon.

    At the moment they are almost getting rewarded for being anti-social and destroying property. "Here's a new place" is the reward.

    It does sound like it would create a ghetto but at least they are away from decent folk and the cops can keep an eye on things.

    After a while of being in "purgatory" they could be allowed move elsewhere on probation. Reward them for good behaviour, not bad.
