    What a brave little Celtic tiger boy you are mouthing from behind your computer.

    Come over from the property threads to insult country people,shop keepers and farmers.

    How many are supporting the man in this thread. The majority are from this saying they can't believe that people are backing and defending him.
    The fact that northern thugs where brought down to remove them is my gripe. The fact that a retired Garda was assaulted by them is another reason why I'm not happy about this.
    I think most people talking about this in here are very annoyed that these thugs were brought down from the north.
    Please don't mistake that as defending a man not paying him debts.
    Your wasting your time.

    They just ignore that so they can carry on their little fap fest with three or four mods joining in with them at various stages to cream themselves and letting idiots accussing all people from the country of low education.

    It really irks me that there is so much support for this man, who willingly neglected his debts.

    This is not a family struggling to keep a house over their head, with no other alternative to pay for debt accrued.

    Its bizzare.

    But that's how the countryside operates.
    Low levels of education.

    There is a discussion to be had in relation to the nature of evictions and how they are carried out but hateful comments like above are just offensive rubbish.

    I would agree that the farmers in this case aren't particularly in need of sympathy considering tax defaults etc. But there are wider implications going forward. Some people do deserve to be evicted but there are genuine hardships out there.
    This process needs to be better regulated I think that is self evident.
    But then again what would I know been an ignorant hick from a border county.

    whats "from the country"

    we're 'accussing' people who seem to struggle with concepts trickier than "i dont want to pay for stuff" and "me and mine first and fcuk the rest" of limited intellectual scope, i suppose

    country origins and education aren't a factor, unless you claim it is.

    edit: just seeing the quote again that joe40 has posted and point taken that's a sweeping negative statement of exactly the type noted.

    hardly the first sweeping negative statement in the thread and hardly the worst, but i wouldnt agree with it meself

    I might be missing something here but what’s so wrong about someone refusing to pay their debts having their assets taken from them?

    I understand that people fall on hard times but by the sounds of things in this situation the bank tried to engage with the homeowner and did not succeed. How can anyone expect them to turn a blind eye to someone refusing to engage?

    And as for the thugs that got involved after the fact - they should be ashamed of themselves.

    Let’s stop fooling ourselves that the uproar over what happened is anything more than a refusal by a certain section of society to accept that you can’t have everything for free in this life and you can’t just refuse to pay your debts and get away with it.

    TBH you're right I am worried about the implications for those that are in genuine distress. These guys aren't and the sort of hysterics that has occurred over this will push the banks to dump all their problem loans to vulture funds and then those who have genuine reasons for their difficulties will be fecked.

    Re processions of property where the debtors have no intention of servicing the debt at all should be streamlined and rather than dragging on for years it should take a year max. It was probably obvious early on that the chancer in Strokestown was gaming the system. Then there should be obligations put in place so banks have to help those with genuine reasons for not being able to meet their payments but who are engaging with the bank to find a solution. They also need to separate the residence from the rest of the farm so in the worst case scenario the farm is lost but the residence is retained.

    Brought on themselves

    i agree they brought the repossession and eviction on themselves yes but i don't agree they brought the behaviour toards them by those so called security carying out the eviction on themselves, behaviour which had no justification and which in my view went beyond anything reasonable.

    And if they left the property peacefully (lawfully) before or when the sheriff/security people showed up, then there would have been no hassle with the security people.

    that's just whataboutery in my view. unless we were talking about the gardai or another separate actual state agency, using force and removing someone from a house, for which i would then agree with your point, as they would be an actual authority of the state.

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    what behaviour

    removal from an illegally-occupied property?

    if you cannot prove anything more than this you ought to stop repeating it as a problem.

    nb it doesnt matter if you think the gardaí should be doing it. you dont need to repeat that any more either, really

    Have you watched the video? I don't see anything unreasonable in it at all. The guys refused to leave a property that was no longer theirs. They were removed. They resisted so it got a bit rough.

    that's just whataboutery in my view. unless we were talking about the gardai or another separate actual state agency, using force and removing someone from a house, for which i would then agree with your point, as they would be an actual authority of the state.

    Given we haven't enough Gardai to cover the country properly I don't believe that we should have a new force with additional costs. I think the banks need to make a concerted effort to flush out all these bad loans where the debtors are not engaging or paying anything.

    Hopefully with more stringent rules around lending and splitting the residence from the business side we will see less of these kind of evictions.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,219 ✭✭✭tipptom


    The guy evicted was a criminal, it's not surprising he knew other 'good republican' criminals. Birds of a feather flock together and scumbags seldom differ.

    Be a good little loyalist fap boy lad and post up your evidence of this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,264 ✭✭✭✭Water John


    Correct Gandalf, different cases deserve different remedies. Take a young couple who put together a deposit and get a mortgage. Then, illness strikes or one is let go from a well paying position whatever and they fall behind on repayments. It was never their intention to default but sh*t happens.
    This is a different kettle of fish, but the main residence should be separate from the business. All business and property owners should be aware of that.

    Yeah it was alright when it was suggested the locals would burn the new owner out, and then burn a new home out afterwards. I didn't hear a peep out of you then.

    It is against the charter to abuse other posters. You're supposed to attack the post and not the poster.

    By the way it's not that family's home anymore. Cabot own it now.

    A five pint Provo if ever there was one.

    Where in my post do I mention provos.

    You think you have to be a provo to get attention from this scum?

    so given that the correct process in law was carried out , possession orders eviction orders etc were sough through relevant courts , notices were served time was allowed etc and the occupants refused to leave the property now belonging to some one else how should they be removed ?

    reasonable force when required is allowed inside the law. while not nice to watch is inside the remit of bailiffs and sheriffs in Ireland today.

    and dont demand links do your own damn research

    Anyone with hardships in Strokestown will be treated the same.

    As chancers.

    =-=

    If sheriffs evicted the trio, would the trio have stayed out of their house after being evicted, or would they have just gone back in, as they have done?

    Facts, eh? Pesky things.

    You over-estimate your cleverness.

    The true picture reveals that Billcarson is absolutely spot-on in what he says.

    Latest release of the CSO Household Budget Survey is 27/3/18, for the period 2015/16.

    Refer yourself to fig. 2.5, and the following -
    The average weekly disposable income for households in the sixth highest income deciles (i.e. those with a gross weekly income in excess of €700.70) exceeded expenditure. On the other hand, households in the remaining deciles (the four lowest) recorded higher expenditure than disposable income

    So, of ten deciles, four of them have households with recorded higher expenditure than disposable income.

    https://www.cso.ie/en/releasesandpublications/ep/p-hbs/hbs20152016/hinc/

    Four out of ten is exactly as the Billcarson said, 'not all... but many'.

    Lies, damned lies, and statistics. Pesky things, eh ?

    i have watched it yes hence why i came to the conclusion i did.
    the fact they supposibly "resisted" doesn't matter to me as they weren't resisting arrest or the gardai moving them on which would be a different story as the gardai are the authority of the state unlike this lot.

    of course we should. we should be funding the gardai, and if they aren't going to be enforcers of civil law, another force along the same lines to enforce civil law. either way, private companies as enforcers is not exceptible to me and they have no place in enforcing the law.
