    so why does he need a jag when he want the govt to redirect dole to people like him.Here is some of what he said

    T
    here are many, many ways of taking people out of unemployment and, at the same time, enhancing or inducing the employer to do so. I’d gladly hire two people right now if I thought there was a way to ease them into our budgets over the next two years. One way to do this, he says, is to redirect an unemployed person’s dole money to a "sponsor company" after a defined period of time — say, 15 months — and that company would take on that person with 60% of their wages coming from social welfare and the balance from the employer.
    and why should people do that to put a jag under his arse
    This 60% social welfare could be phased out over two years, by which time the new employee would be fully salaried by the business. "We have achieved three things. We have taken somebody and put them into the workplace which is a very positive thing. We have eased the burden on the taxpayer because over a set or agreed period of time you’ve phased out the social welfare for that individual and phased in a full salary for that individual, with money that will be spent in the community. Then I, the employer, can be supported by getting an extra two or three percent on my Vat payments as a rebate if I keep my individual on my books for three years.
    he wants a rebate as well as people's dole
    "We have got to stop enabling all these people, sitting at home watching daytime TV and getting paid for it," Mr Mordaunt says, adding it’s not the people who find themselves on the couch that he blames — but the regime that keeps them in such a situation.
    he would prefer enable them to give him half their dole

    Is he confident of a sea-change in such attitudes at official level? "I just don’t see it in [Social Protection Minister] Joan Burton’s office and in the people around her. They’re not ruthless enough and they’re not creative enough.
    ruthless? when the bank were ruthless with him he went crying about suicide
    The Mordaunt family business had three car showrooms in Clonmel, and another in Kilkenny, before the recession kicked in, and is now down to its original, core base on Clonmel’s Waterford Rd.
    and when there were rumours of failure he lied to the papers and radio
    With that paring-back of operations has come an inevitable loss of jobs but, according to Mr Mordaunt, such developments should not mean the end of the road for workers made redundant — as long as their expectations are realistic.
    why is his car not realistic
    "Every person I made redundant over the last four years who wanted to go back to work, went back to work. I’d say there are jobs, but you have to remove an element of pride because some people will still shy away from certain jobs, because they believe they’re beneath them.
    like he thinks any car but a jag is beneath him

    He got himself in a mess with greed, cried and whinged and now wants people dole to invest in his garage which is one of his businesses

    With all his talk i am told his showroom is quiet enough

    we do not hate in my cult:D:D, would you like to join..

    seriously look at my reply and what he said in the paper and then you may understand why so many people are annoyed. I wait for someone to call him on his BS in the media and the way the media suck up to him. i fear i may have to do it myself. Please someone call him

    Still not vrt'd?? God he's getting away with it for a long time now. He must have that yoke well over a year... If I had a uk reg I'd be done after a week. I wonder is he going the direction of other recent Irish business men seeking bankruptcy in the UK?

    But be careful what ye say here lads. I'm sure Georgie is keeping an eye on things and is in and out of any thread he's mentioned in.

    Oh and I'm not George :)

    they kind of don't like been asked that kind of question because they think they have all the power,i was down in Gerry Brennans(vj's) on saturday night and there was a drug bust and i wasn't even near the intended targets and they were over asking me and another lad were we carrying any stuff just to show their power,by the way we didn't look like dealers only up there for a game of snooker,they should be a little more suttle.

    Cops done me a few years back for not VRT ing a car. They can stop you and question you about it and while they're doing that the other lad is usually on the phone to the local customs lad to come out and seize the car if warranted. Ive since iund iut they can do it without customs being there. Time I was caught I had the car a few days but they still took it off me. So yes the cops can take foreign registered cars.

    Doubt it. Unless they are taking over the Omniplex. With Netflix and Sky about to go to war providing on demand movies I can't see anyone getting a business plan passed by investors/bank for a new cinema and certainly not in a town that already has one.

    There was to be a new cinema built down in the show grounds shopping centre but with that place in receivership I don't think it's gonna happen.
