    We may have 135 people genuinely living on the streets, but the rest are in a far better place than those that have chronic addiction problems who live Day and night in a ****ty sleeping bag on Dublin’s pavements.
    I don’t doubt that some of those in hostels and hotels are real family’s that fell on hard times
    But a lot are just looking for a free “forever home”

    Once again we are in agreement here.

    No, it didn’t.

    Explain it to me again.


    I mentioned 'cost of rental accommodation' (especially in Dublin). The rest was a bit of melodrama to highlight the point.

    There is a trend beginning to form when it comes to housing or homelessness.

    Case 1:

    Lady in Cork with 9 kids on a beach, between her and her partner they have 13 children.

    Case 2: A couple living in a caravan/mobile home in North Cork.


    Case 3:


    The matter that triggered this thread.

    In each case the media rushed the sob story through and only afterwards did the real facts begin to emerge. It shameful the way our genuine homelessness problems are being exploited by people who could fool idiotic journalists.

    Throw up one of their facebook pages so I can check if any of the bastards have bought double ply toilet roll over single ply toilet roll in the past 5 years. Probably flaunting their millionaire lifestyle right in front of our faces.

    I’d bet none have been convicted of involvement in robberies either.

    But then I guess we should be grateful that we can see who some posters choose to lend their blind support to - tells us a lot about their character TBH

    They could but then would have to live in a tent outside their workplace considering the cost of rental accommodation. Some of the posts in this thread are hilarious. It's like I've wandered into Breitbart.....

    So you think that we have a structural unemployment problem?

    One of them went on a weeks holiday to Dungarvan in the middle of media coverage in a 7 seater car I think.

    They probably had the kitten soft toilet roll that week over the newspaper which is a bit rough on sensitive skin.

    When the Council buys a house for you because you’re a traveller and you don’t give a fučk about it.

    The children apparently did that to their own windows

    Poor creatures, you'd think the settled people would let them alone, how dare they do that to the travellers.

    You'll find that the second line of that comment was sarcasm and what you say is correct.

    Oh how I would love a life on welfare, 3 cases of it in the recent media, each and every one of them on a f**k load more mula than me.

    There's a saying - when you don't pay for something you don't appreciate it

    When I was a kid (about 6 years old) I broke a bedroom window trying to open it, window smashed (pushing the glass to open it), hand cut to bits - hid under the bed with blood gushing because I was too scared to be found by my mother.

    it's not just that though. if someone gave me a Ferrari I wouldn't just rally the sheite out of it because I hadn't paid for it. it's an appreciation for the value of money. if you have never worked you just wont have it.

    Im not aware of anyone living in a tent outside their job, have you a link?

    Its happened in Scotland.

    Thats why migrants have a better chance of getting work. They are willing to put up with poor pay and zero hours contracts.

    True. Thread on here about a chap living in a van to live in while working in Dublin. Soon people will be asking where the best place is to pitch a tent.

    The UK and Ireland have similar working practices and a similar pattern with regards to Eastern block EU migrants.

    So are people seriously still backing this woman, with her €55,000 income tax-free from the state, yet its somehow the government's fault?

    So the f**k what. You're quite the hardship denier aren't you? The view from inside the gated community is always good it seems. Thanks for that tent link prinzeugen. I wasn't being melodramatic after all........

    Both are. They do refer people to Garda stations nationwide. I’ve seen it myself. But I do believe them that they didn’t refer Ms Cash

    without doubt the 'debate' that's blown up all over twitter and social media about this bears no real relation to the reality of it. yet try and even tentatively say this and you'd be shot down. it's regrettable.
