Hence why the OP makes no sense and smacks of contrivance.

Hi OP

Why are these people talking about getting grants to make improvements to houses they don't own?

What grant are they referring to? Local authority tenants can avail of a home improvement loan if they are in the process of buying a house and will return the council house to the local authority. Said improvements are not made to the council house, but the new property. All other LA loans are for owner-occupiers and all LA grants are for owner-occupiers. No idea what kinds of grants your fellow patrons are talking about.

Why would a local authority give a grant to a local authority tenant to make improvements to a property the local authority owns? Maybe you could ask them for us? I would genuinely love to know.

Were we especially bored of a Wednesday evening, OP?

Quit your job and go on the dole if you think it's so great, good lad

I am always amazed how the people who start these threads seem to know absolutely everything about the people they complain about from their employment status to how much they get in benefits. Amazing.

And absolutely nothing about how social welfare in Ireland actually operates.

So just give them free houses then....?

Every time you buy a new house you worked for you have to pay for a layabouts one too.

Idbatterim · 13-03-2019 11:08PM

I’ve been saying it for years. Hundreds of thousands struggling , big hit to their standard of living to pay for the legions of wasters in this country. Free rent , medical card , free few hundred a week etc ... go watch skint Britain to see how their “welfare state” is run. Then you have that spineless snake varadkar jacking up welfare the last few budgets, to the tune of more euro than a worker on 30 odd thousand received in a usc cut. At a time of full employment as fg keep telling us ...

This is a strictly Irish attitude, They don’t adopt in Germany or uk. They will cut you off from welfare , I don’t believe you have a right to keep robbing people blind , either do governments in many countries ...

Yeah that's how it is it's the welfare state, I also pay for doctors and schools though I don't use either, I'm happy to say I'm not so self centred that only think about myself

I'm going to have to fuvking leave. ****ing hell like, went out for a fag to calm myself down even though I haven't smoked in years

Just **** off

You have to own the house to qualify for energy efficiency grants.

Also, you should give up the smoking. I don't want my taxes to be spent on looking after someone who chose to smoke. You MONSTER!

Free in that you don't contribute to thier upkeep paying no taxes on your little bicycle

I get a grant from Dublin city council for breaking red lights as well. Works out about €5 per light, but you have to break loads to make it worth while

Roger Hassenforder · 13-03-2019 11:27PM

Poor thread curation by OP.
2 hours later, he's either píssed in the pub and too drunk to type. Or his head exploded with the rage.

Anyway, things have picked up on the cycling front.

Tacklebox · 13-03-2019 11:29PM

They get a full set of golf clubs and
Fishing gear, and if that's too heavy or you couldn't be arsed to carry it you can drop it off at the nearest bus stop....

Free taxis and no taxes...

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1 · 13-03-2019 11:32PM

Haven't you heard? The OP has to pay a levy on his pints to pay for theirs.

Listening to Paddy o’Gorman on SoR yesterday and he went to a homeless help office. One of the ‘clients’ was bragging that your entitled to €1800 a month on the homeless HAP scheme in Dublin. My jaw hit the bloody floor.

A friend of my mine witnessed this. She told me herself. Some places you can't even get off the bus anymore, the pavement is chocca with abandoned free houses. Apparently, they spend all the free grant money for doing up a free house on free drugs . Then just go and get another free house, get the grant money and drop that house at the bus stop and on to the next free house ...

Most cyclists,especially the MAMIL variety look like they're fond of the cake alright.

When the weather improves we'll be treated to the sight of hundreds of them,straining through their disgusting lycra and maliciously blocking roads.

That's not true. You always get a spare house in case the first one starts to fret while it's on its own.
