Clonmel Thread

River Island still has physical stores in Dublin at least.

Looks like the big housing development out the Coleville road is in trouble. The company building it has ceased trading and are gone into liquidation.

Still stores in Kilkenny & Waterford!

This is really concerning as it could very likely end up just left there.

That's awful, hard enough to get on the property ladder as it is. How much would a typical deposit be I wonder?

rearranged March

I see all the bleeding hearts are out crying Racism. I consider myself left leaning when it comes to politics but this is one topic I cant agree with them on.

They are slowly but surely taking over the town. Every road into the town has a halting site. The rugby club hill has a constant flow of addicts up and down constantly, syringes on the paths, calling to people's doors looking for money. The sulkies are everywhere. The land grabbing is off the charts. Robbery, intimidation, absolute filth on the roads outside the sites. Kids running amok.

People are too sh#t scared to open their mouths, and with good reason. I heard Chicken Brennan got visitors to the door and photos of his kids handed to him. I'm second guessing myself about attending the march for fear of being recognised and targeted. The council are their landlords, we all need to put pressure on them to enforce their own bloody rules. I am dying to move out of Clonmel because it's becoming unbearable.

I agree 100% on all you say

On the march, don’t attend if you have any doubts because it will make **** all difference anyway.

Clonmel has turned into a complete shithole and it’s a shame. And we both know nothing will change this and any marches are pointless. They will only laugh at it.
it’s their town now.

nothing will solve this. They do not give a **** and are a law onto themselves.
Anyone who can actually do something about it are too scared of them.

if we want real change, we need to take off the gloves. But that will never happen in today’s world.

@thamas doku - With attitudes like that you are only supporting those you're complaining about. Moan and moan online but do nothing on the day.

Keep on moaning online. Maybe it's a therapy for you.

Hopefully this protest is just the beginning of ordinary decent people standing up and taking their town back from the undesirable element who are holding it hostage and the bleeding heart extremists in Dublin who enable them.

Civil Liberties in this country have become nothing more than Criminal Liberties as ordinary civil society is left undefended. Hopefully today will send a message that the tide is turning and the public will increasingly vote for candidates who commit to defend us and our families. Our politicians would do well to remember that the next time they are brought out to dinner in fancy restaurants by the likes of the Irish Council for Criminal Liberties and Pavee Point.

A good turnout of people who act instead of terminally moaning online.

There was easily a 2:1 ratio in favour of women. No fear on them, just determination to see the right thing done. Well done to all who turned up.
