Repossession of a business. It was tried before and descended into chaos, so they appear to be taking no chances this time.

Was on the Sean O'Rourke show about an hour ago.

Seems to have been rumbling on since an attempt last year, as you can see in the link from the IT in HeidiHeidi's post

It's like a mini version of Under the Dome

I guess another businessman who reckons he got a grant from his bank rather than a loan.

Exactly, the state really shouldn't be using up to 40 Garda to run an operation to close down a shop/village. The banks should be hiring a few security lads and some support from Garda. I understand you pay your bills this doesn't happen. But to use Garda in this way, doesn't exactly show them helping the public or so them any favors gaining support from the community. Surely someone up on top can see that? My word, I can see a PR nightmare unfolding on Joe Duffy in an hour or so..

The bank hired a security company backed up by a few Guards the first time and we saw what happened, the protesters decided to ignore the courts decision and the orders of the Gardai.

Apparently some people are saying it's around 10-12 Garda at the scene not the currently suggested 40-50 mentioned and a private security company has put up a temporary fence around the now court ordered business

I heard that there are approximately 25 gardaí present, 2 Dog units and a mounted unit.

RSU and ERU are on standby also as well.

Garda helicopter is over head and the army are in ready mode in case of being called in to purge the village. Apaches and MiGs are also being scrambled.

Just look at the article in the Times from last October to see the embellishments that take place when these stories are told.

Corrections & Clarifications
In this article, it was claimed that agents acting for Ken Fennell of Deloitte had illegally taken possession of a Londis supermarket at Kilmuckridge, Co Wexford. The Irish Times accepts, however, that Mr Fennell is a validly appointed receiver over this property and his agents took lawful possession of the property on October 5th, 2015.
An article in the edition of October 14th 2015, headed “Locals reclaim repossessed Wexford supermarket” wrongly reported an allegation that KTech, a security firm acting under the direction of Deloitte, forced their way into the supermarket without proper legal sanction or entitlement. In fact, KTech had legal authority to enter the premises. The article also reported accusations that KTech staff wore balaclavas and removed stock from the supermarket. The Irish Times accepts that there is no basis to these accusations and apologises to KTech and Kevin McGarry

Honestly what is the big fuss, a shop owner took a loan they couldnt pay back and the bank is proceeding through the legal means to reposess what they put up as collateral for the loan.

People can cry and moan all they like but evictions have to happen for us to move on from this mess.

The obvious signs that its all above board is you have freemen nutjobs like the new land league and right 2 homes involved

That's the whole idea here in Ireland for a lot of people to take out big loans, no intention of paying them back a lot of the time. Then when things go belly up, a big hue when the Bank wants its money back. Oh the injustice, lol

Hopefully Jerry Beades will be on Vinny Browne tonight. His appearance in support of the O'Donnells "bog standard" Killiney mansion was TV gold.
