Any idea what this is about?
just an organization with a lot of criminals then ? 😏😏
The word on the street is that Tom McFeely is gearing up operations to take on state procurement contracts when SF come to power. Return to Priory Hall time.
Not sure where SF comes into this but you are 100% wrong on this. Mixed tenure housing (social, affordable, private, rental etc) leads to much better outcomes overall, its not even debatable.
hmmm almost like you are couched over a computer somewhere waiting for a post
we ll yes, they are more and more proof is emerging and your weak defense is both telling and embarrassing
great you see you taking part though 😁
sf is not a terrorist or criminal organisation.
mixed developments ?? lol
terrorist apologist for a criminal organization .
you are heartbeat away from being a terrorist kid
but you properly think that a good thing
mixed developments are the policy and that is going to remain to be the case.
suck it up butter cup it's not going to change.
Statistics show that to be utter rubbish and I can only assume you're benefiting from the current system or some misguided sjw in order to believe that nonsense you write.
it does.
it removes bigotry and classism for which those who like engaging in such will be resentful but nobody cares thankfully.
actually the gardai don't have to spread the resources further as tiny pockets of anti-social behaviour spread around mean more local gardai are able to deal with it where as concentrating it together would require over all greater resources.
that's a failure of the market, meaning the state has to step in some way.
What happens when more and more people choose to be unable to house themselves?
It removes nothing. It just spreads the cancer of scumbags further around, ends up negatively affecting decent families lives and creating deep resentment.
This is evidenced by the huge increase in violence and robberies in areas where nothing like that would previously occur. The guards just had to look after small pockets of unruly antisocial behaviour and now they need to spread their resources all over the place as the thugs have been spread like seeds on the wind.
the morality is fine.
1 person chooses to buy house has to buy it at market value as they can afford it.
another is unable to house themselves so state steps in to help.
rent can be deducted at source if only the government would implement legislation to allow it and as it's a council it's a state body.
state could pay for more gards and pay proper wages to them, all very easily solved but people like you don't want it hence voting for the same 2 parties no doubt.
that's life, lots of things can bring down property value.
he could just as easily end up with a family who dispite their situation are a decent family, as in the majority of such families.
nobody is entitled to have their property value remain the same as otherwise market forces can't work.
mixing people removes bigotry and classism, segregation is of a bygone era thankfully.
Yeah but it isn't.
The amount of rent levied, the enforcement of collection and the rigour of tenant management, when it comes to damage and anti-social behaviour, are just risible.
There simply are no consequences.
Here's one of a succession of stories from an area I know pretty well. It would make any hard working person want to withhold their taxes...
You have housing estates built on the condition that 20% of the houses are social houses. A working taxpaying citizen will end up paying 300k plus for the house. Next door he could have a family of wasters with a criminal history as long as your arm, handed the same house for a nominal rent in an area they could never afford in a million years.
They can engage in all sorts of antisocial behaviour and wreck the house any way they wish. The guy next door now has a devalued property with an issue no one else wants to live next to and he's paying for their house to be repaired through his tax every day he lives.
And don't tell me it doesn't happen as its happening two doors down from me. Thankfully I'm renting but my immediate neighbour isn't so lucky.
there is no handing out houses to anyone for nothing in ireland, all individuals are required to pay rent for their houses who are receiving help from the state.
nobody is asked to pay 300k for a house, the market decides that is what a house is worth and people choose to pay it.
the morality of those who can afford it buying a house and the state helping those who are unable to afford to house themselves is perfectly fine.
you have no complaint here on that issue.
Absolutely, shíte talk of the highest order. I'm involved in the industry and finding anyone that isn't a complete waster at best or a liability at worst is nearly impossible.
In 10yrs there'll be no houses built in Ireland unless they're built in a factory and put up on site like lego. There's no quality of younger tradesmen coming through even in the cleaner trades. Brickies and plastering is a complete write off hence the prices being charged.
Typical SF waffle before you even mention the morality of handing out houses to every waster in the country for nothing and asking their neighbour to pay 300k for his house.
There's no decent party to take on real issues in this country and as a result the country is going down the shìtter. A welfare state for our deadbeats whilst affording them the opportunity to carry out crimes ad nauseum without consequences.
not ones dripping in both political and criminal blood though 🙂
Wonder did all the shinner voters shouting about "change" notice she didn't rule out a coalition with FG or FF.
Also who is going to build these 100000 houses a year when the building industry itself says there is a shortage of men to build them.
No details on how to fix the health service either, god that party is full of crap.
There have been plenty of politicians of all parties on the Late Late over the years Mary Lou on is no big deal . They generally get a soft enough interview on that show .
One hell of a PR job there by Sf, and how Mary L's handlers managed to swing such a party political broadcast on a prime time late late slot is something that has me thinking.
Might like to add Tubbs is no heavyweight so...
Jesus, they’d want to get that Jason Lambert lad on Twitter to decommission his keyboard and phone.
It's a real failure on SF part to be the largest party on the Island yet not making any progress when it comes to achieving a UI.
Ireland's Future echo chamber / fluff pieces aren't achieving anything either. Nobody gives a damn what celebrities think about a UI.
SFs attempts to be all things to all people is certainly part of the problem; the second they commit to a specific path of action they potentially alienate voters who prefer a different course.
Easier to ride two horses for as long as possible and just promise whatever the person you're speaking to wants, dander down to the next door and promise something totally different.
New research showing a 2:1 ratio in favour of remaining in the UK and only 54% of Catholics in favour of unity.
Behind a pay wall so only detail i know is what's in the podcast.
Is SF refusal to tackle how a UI would be funded part of the problem?
Heartening to see the SF TDs standing up to applaud Ursula von der Leyen in her very timely attendance at the joint sitting this afternoon. Heard some of the members of the Belfast contingent in the visitor seats weren't as keen?
Chris McManus has the unfortunate habit of making Pearse "The Accountant" Doherty look like a world-class intellectual.
Great Irish though in fairness, and steps in when the others in SF do not have the level of Gaeilge for robust debate in the language. So he can roar and shout fluently as Gaeilge while waving papers…
