    Radio interview from Ms.Cash on Ocean FM yesterday:
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/tr00dvvy645hrha/Margaret%20Cash%20on%20Ocean%20FM.mp3

    Strikes me as oddd that the host introduces her immediately as "traveller mother of seven". I thought she had settled years ago and had been commenting bad of anyone who brought up her traveller past. Now suddenly the past few days she takes part in a traveller group protest outside the Dail and is using that as her radio intro? Also I don't see how it was really relevent to the segment.

    What strikes me as odd is that Ms Cash's detractors on here haven't taken the time to distance themselves from All seeing eye who suggests that a return to magdelene laundries is a reasonable solution. Are we to take it that you all agree with him.
    No

    You’re really, really stretching this one. Anybody with half a brain and any common sense would realise that the very suggestion is outrageous. Nobody agreed with or backed up that poster and he/she was put firmly in their place.

    Do you just want to labour the point because it suits you in trying to derail the thread from the topic at hand? A leech bleeding the system without ever contributing anything back. Or is your tiny mind struggling to get past the notion that nobody agreed with him/her but you still think it might be a stick to beat others with anyway?

    For such a tiny mind it sure seems to be able to rattle your cage David. :confused:

    How dare you assign a gender to someone without checking what they want to known as.

    Jeeeaysus she's well able to talk and get her point across. Fair play to her.

    She sounds like a comedy version of a traveller

    Sorry about that I should have asked first, but women tend not to wish other women incarcerated for their reproductive choices it's usually a certain type of man, my bad.

    How can a criminal stand up and be the poster child for this group???

    What past - we and nobody else is allowed to ask about her past including criminal and asking why she has previously Evictions from properties

    Wonder why

    All she basically says is everybody is entitled to a house and nothing else.

    The average Industrial wage for a full time adult worker in this country is stated at around €45,000. After tax, PRSI, USC the take home pay is just shy of €34k. From this you need transport to and from work if you're not lucky enough to live close by. If you're in Dublin an annual bus/luas ticket is about €1,500. If you have to drive and park then obviously that figure increases.

    Margaret Cash lies on her back or sits on her a*s all year. Standard dole plus allowance for 7 kids is €21,871 a year. Childrens allowance for 7 kids is €11,760 a year. Thats just shy of €34k a year. And I'm not even going to go into rent and any other allowances you can be guaranteed she's claiming for.

    Anyone who thinks someone with 7 kids sit on their arse all day is plain stupid

    Who minds the kids while she fulfills her role as queen of the gimme, gimme brigade?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,743 ✭✭✭Wanderer2010


    No mention of the father of any of these kids.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,286 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn

    He wasn't mentioned at first. Then it turned out her was in jail for assault. Then I think he did something naughty.

    He assaults and robs from elderly people.

    Those kids aren’t brought up. They’re being dragged up!! So yes she does sit on her arse all day

    I think most peoples issue is the fact that's all she does and she expects the state to fund it.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 330 ✭✭All Seeing Eye


    Surely there must be a bleeding heart on here who’d offer to take in mags and the kids while they get sorted with a house? Better than her roaming the streets and sleeping in Garda stations.

    Disgusting to see that criminal Margaret cash given air time on RTÉ this evening.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,593 ✭✭✭Wheeliebin30


    Anyway 1,000 people attended so I think we know the support Ms Cash the criminal has.

    Has she updated her Facebook job title yet to roving reporter. If there is something guaranteed to drive a wedge through this group of protesters its this shyster. People should be careful who they put on a pedestal ,shes poison


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,519 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    I fully agree as I would say 99.9% on here there is a crisis but cash is far from it.

    She will never have to sleep rough, worry about bills, rent, cash issues, food(St Vincent will look after that) yada yada yada yada.....

    I can't get a house never mind afford to live in Dublin where I work and was brought up.

    It's actually quite sad I work full time and have to commute while paying huge rent among other bills.

    I get no help and I can't keep up the way it's going as I will never be able to afford to save to buy a home for my family.

    Sad really is to be honest.

    Was struck by one of the Workers Party banners today. It demanded "Public Housing for All"


    Should it not be "Public Housing for those who work their arses off and can't afford to buy a house"

    Take someone working minimum wage 50 hours per week and doing their damndest to provide for their family. They'll never afford to buy a house. Shouldn't they be priority for public housing?

    Why should their be an automatic right for the state to fund housing for people who are willing to abdicate all responsability for taking care of themselves and their families due to their unwillingness to work and/or make prudent decisions about their lifestyle?

    "Public housing for all" is pie in the sky stuff
