I would hope so. If she's spending €2,500 on a set of chairs surely she's putting them somewhere. Unless she's going hauling them around with the kids.

Theyre a 6 piece set right? She’s going to bring her own seats to Tallaght Garda station next time. “We’re not poor, just homeless”

Ya but there's only 6.

I feel another Miriam interview coming on.

She has six of those chairs already, this is for when the brood is extended.

I can think of a large storage place that they could all easily fit in to

There's already 3!! threads on the first page of this forum abusing travellers, do you go into every thread and try to link it to travellers?

What's your obsession?

Do a traveller girl you fancied shoot you down when you were a young lad and now you spend your life obsessed with them?

Oh deary me you are a sketch :pac:

He's ducked several questions

I dont think he's up yet. Or he's too busy touring his property portfolio and counting his cash.
But the "I earn more than you" stuff is pure gold. Bless his little cotton socks.

She's some buyer/seller on FB

She's selling a '€600' suit she bought her son for her daughters communion
Offer currently €250 so prob €350 loss

like new worn just for chaple

On 2nd Feb 2018 before her garda station stunt she was 'looking for a clean 7 seater'

Was able to say on a €2000 car 'wer r u i will buy 2 day'

Yet "HOMELESSNESS campaigner Margaret Cash was placed on a 12-month probation bond today.

The 28-year-old, Westpark Gate, Tallaght, had pleaded guilty to stealing clothing worth €321 from Penneys, Nutgrove Shopping Centre, Rathfarnham, on February 17, 2018.

“I don’t know what the shoplifting has to do with me being homeless, it is my private life.

"I never said I was a saint or anything, far from it.

“None of this has to do with the homeless crisis.

“I feel like I’m being attacked for highlighting the homeless crisis. It’s all about me shoplifting, they are looking for the bad.

“The clothes were for the kids. I feel like I am being targeted. It is letting the Government off the hook.”

https://www.thesun.ie/news/3274135/margaret-cash-saint-avoiding-jail-penneys/

Plenty of money for communion stuff, a car and couches

Apparently 'love's me 7 beautiful kids more than life' yet she didn't think "What would happen to your children if you were to go to jail?"

Then again “I never said I was poor. I said I was homeless. I get benefits the same as everyone else. I just haven’t got enough to get a home."

You know damn well that they're not cash or related to cash by the fact that their post is easy to read without making your eyes bleed, so cut it out.

There's not much of a discussion on this thread when it's mainly just people ranting about travellers and tarring an entire group of people in a way that would make a skinhead gang proud.

It's okay to point out that there are problems without all the histrionics on display here. It's a thread in a discussion forum that you're writing, not an attention grabbing ****piece for the daily ****wit.

It's not OK for a halting site, and the council didn't say it was - invariably the council sets things up right, and the residents make changes afterwards. This is the equivalent of the council building a pair of semi-d's, meeting all current regulations. Then you and I move in next door to each other, and decide that we'll knock down the fire barrier between the attics, and build on our own wooden lean-to's across the back of both houses. We'd like electricity in these, so we'll tap into the street light outside, and run cables taped together with sellotape through a few puddles. Then, if something happens, we'll claim that the houses provided by the council didn't meet proper standards.

However, if someone from the council drops in every week to examine the place, and to insist that we get the attic barriers repaired and knock down the dangerous wooden extensions, we'll claim we're being victimised, have no privacy and that the council should pay to bring things back to regulation standards.

This is a serious tragedy, yet you are trying to make a joke out of it by posting stuff like that. Fire extinguishers are useless anywhere everyone is unconscious. Whose fault is that? It is certainly not the council's that they were all unconscious. It is the fault of the people who drank until they were unconscious.

How would the council know that it was obvious it was no longer emergency accommodation? Are the council watching the site 24/7?

In this case, it is all the fault of the people living in the caravan. They changed the smoke alarm. They lit a chip pan and left it on. They drank until they became unconscious.

The council couldn't have changed any of that. That could have happened whether they lived in a caravan, a house or a palace.

No , that is not what I said , as you know . In a previous answer to you I accepted that the chip pan started the fire. But it is a council halting site, provided by the council so is the responsibility of the council and the fire safety officers to ensure that fire safety regulations are enacted on any site within its remit.
And in reply to another post , the council are responsible along with individuals who remove smoke alarms , and who do not take care while cooking. Of course there is individual responsibility for the actions/ inactions of people, but this applies to the council also. I have no interest personally in progressing this debate , except to tell those who were blaming the individual travellers alone for the tragedy.

I have never said this was funny, read my posts . I am angry at traveller bashing going on in this thread while this inquest is going on. The council have a list of their sites emergency or otherwise on it and this site was being monitored, but not for fire safety , it appears.

Galwayguy35 · 17-01-2019 07:12PM

If I was drinking, forgot about a chip pan and passed out from being drunk it would be my fault if i died in a fire.

Seems like the PC crowd are twisting themselves up in knots to blame everyone except the people responsible.

Fair play you are consistent in your attempt to lay blame anywhere except where it belongs. 'The lad that put on the chip pan, insisted on the smoke alarm being changed, drinking to unconsciousness is responsible '. NOONE ELSE.

Is there a failing on behalf of the councils to understand traveller culture?

Sites being cursed and an intricate web of family feuds have left many sites and houses empty.

Is it though? Can we reasonably expect the council to hold the hands of grown adults? I am not blaming the victims, because it was an accident. But it’s certainly nobody else’s fault.

If the adults have below an IQ below 70 they are technically disabled and the council have a duty of care to them.

tretorn · 17-01-2019 07:21PM

The chip pan was placed on a hot plate and the hot plate was set at its highest setting.

I think most of the victims died in bed with one male found dead in the kitchen area.

The responsibility for the danger those children were put in was the person who turned on the hot plate and put the chip pan full of oil on top of it.
