Actually, Treasury have made huge losses but they were shrewd enough to get into property development in China which is still bringing in lots of money for them - for now. Interesting that NAMA itself is housed in the building that Treasury themselves own...

My point was that the property developers are still swanning around, flaunting their opulent lifestyles with mansions, big cars etc. in the faces of the little people like me and others who are left picking up the pieces of the ruin that this country is in - thankjs to same said developers, bankers and FFers.

They are basically giving us all the two finger gesture and the powers that be are letting them away with it:mad:

Property in China.......hmmmmmmmmmm

For me

Well, it got so that every piss-ant prairie punk who thought he could shoot a gun would ride into town to try out the Waco Kid. I must have killed more men than Cecil B. DeMille. It got pretty gritty. I started to hear the word "draw" in my sleep. Then one day, I was just walking down the street when I heard a voice behind me say, "Reach for it, mister!" I spun around... and there I was, face-to-face with a six-year old kid. Well, I just threw my guns down and walked away. Little bastard shot me in the ass. So I limped to the nearest saloon, crawled inside a whiskey bottle, and I've been there ever since.

I was rofl

Thread Hijack Btw Sorry.

Pity the Sheriff could not clean up the IFSC which is known as the 'Wild West of Finance'.

Yep, spot on. The papers are loving the idea that a big luxury car has been seized, but in reality the car isn't worth that much. It's not like he's been flaunting wealth, sticking two fingers up to everyone for the last year.

Paddy Kelly is the prime example of people still flaunting it! He makes a point of it.

Paddy Kelly owes the bank and us a fortune but seams to be flaunting the fact , still lives in dublin 4 .
He's got his precious car back

Like all our white collar gamblers hes handed everything over to his wife , so he aint going to go hungry - so the average punter who owes the bank anything less than 100 k will be hounded while any Fianna fail donating developer still enjoys the high life

only in ireland

"The sheriff is an officer of the court and is charged with recovering unpaid debt to businesses and banks, and it also works on behalf of the Revenue Commissioners, They are also supplied with horses along with the Garda mounted unit".

Well thank God they sorted out this little mix up

He looks really happy, bless.

mfceiling · 07-08-2010 11:14AM

About time....how the hell would he have been able to drive about all the sites that he owes millions on??
Public transport...i don't think so...it's fairly unreliable at the best of times due to years of under investment.........

paddydriver · 07-08-2010 11:17AM

He is "unapologetic" about his depts of €350m to various banks... Its funny really cause ordinarily we would not expect him to be and we would laugh at the banks stupidity for lending all this money with no guarantee of repayment.

But now we just feel like fools because its us the taxpayer that has had to pick up this €350m bill and these guys continue to drive their 7 series - albeit only a 2003:rolleyes: - and live in their Aylesbury Rd mansions.

We need to take to the streets...:)

07-08-2010 11:28AM

He's such a failure in life but still drives around like he's achieved something.. You can guarantee a couple owing 50k in negative equity after selling their house would get their lives torn apart more that this guy owing hundreds of millions.

biko · 07-08-2010 11:39AM

So his wife has two cars and he has none?
Are they insured in her name with him as a named driver? Taxed by her?

Fecking typical that these guys gets away with signing over their things to the wife and avoid bailiffs.

Look at him smiling there "haha, I'm better than you all".

shouting

I don't understand how the rich get away with signing things over to their wifes.
If you assessed for a medical card or social welfare then both are assessed together. No such thing as saying them savings are my wifes etc.

Lest we forget that while Paddy Kelly admits to owing €350million his son, Simon Kelly, is nothing to be sneezed at. This comment of his when NAMA took over his debts earlier this year says so much about our current political system:

'I owe €200m -- and feel like I have been liberated'

And on The Irish Times this evening it is reported that this Paddy Kelly guy has been given his car back and there's a lovely picture of this parasite on the website waving "his" car keys and smiling at the camera:

To think that Irish law protects these bastards. Paddy Kelly, Simon Kelly, Johnny Ronan, Seán Dunne and all the rest of them just sign over everything (except their debts) to a relative and continue to live the high life. This Kelly senior guy has not one but two homes in Dublin 4, including on Shrewsbury Road. And yet we, people who could not enjoy anything like this, are saddled with his €350 million debts. Disgusting. Immoral. And all supported, and protected, by the state named Ireland. Never lose sight of that.

This is part of the greatest betrayal in Ireland's history. From expenses - O Donoghue, Rody Molloy, Ivor Callely (and all the others whom I simply forget) to bailing out banks to the tune of tens of billions to bailing out entrepreneurs and developers to giving enormous pensions to politicians and senior civil servants the conscious people of Ireland are getting the two-fingers from this state on a daily basis. Not weekly, daily.

There's no shame, no shame. No pride. No honour. No patriotism. No belief in Ireland's future from any of the people who are calling the shots in the Irish state today.

An awful lot of people would agree with the above post.
