    Oh here we go... the poor poor landlords.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,873 ✭✭✭Skid


    The Rent Allowance is one thing that they really need to take a knife to.

    Crazy money being paid out to prop up failing Landlords.

    I think Labour will be destroyed in the next election

    Smaller parties in coalitions always seem to get punished (pds/greens) as examples.

    rent Allowance should definitely be reduced.It's the landlords dole and is creating a false market for rent.
    I can't believe this one is looking for sympathy.
    Yeah pay any allowance to landlord as long as the landlord is registered and paying tax. There needs to be a huge reduction in it.

    Liveline quote of the week:

    'renting is not fun anymore'

    But it was when you were getting 250 quid cash a week and property was appreciating in double figures annually.

    FFS up until a few years back most of the new landlords wouldn't let a rent allowance tenant draken their door...

    We need a dictator . Someone that will remove the vermin from Leinster house and its environs, a person of steel that will route the civil/public service

    They will. Even if they do a good job.

    I have heard many stories of rent allowance being abused. Agree it should be curtailed and really only given to those deserving and in real need, however this can be determined.....

    Her 2nd time being burnt....you think she would have learn't a lesson after the 1st Rent allowance tenant. They are bad bad news!!!

    CONTAGION!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,993 ✭✭✭yosser hughes


    I bought it as a pension. I bet she has a pension anyway. A lot of landlords are public servants.
    You are not entitled to profit,if you can't make it work then don't depend on the state to subsidise you.

    rent allowance should be reduced and paid directly to the landlord end of

    This wan doesn't sound sick enough to be out of work, IMO. Well enough to come and talk on radio.....if she is in an office job surely she could be sitting doing her stuff just as well as nattering on the 'phone...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    Dunno about anyone else but I never got paid for a single day's being sick in my whole working life. Most employers in the construction sector don't or didn't pay it.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭my friend


    Mary the Current female caller is the type of waster that's always 'sick'

    Useless whining biatch

    I got the flu 2 years ago and could not move for 5 days, I was puking/the other end too :o and every single part of me ached. I would not have been on the phone to Joe Duffy. Get off the phone and back to work you scammer you don't have the flu!

    She says she has the flu. If she really had the flu she would be in no condition to have a coherent conversation on the radio.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,916 ✭✭✭✭orourkeda


    She has a ragin' wide on for this travel agent


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,602 ✭✭✭joe316


    What a snotty cow, bet shes one of those types whose missing more days than she works.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,999 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    Sounds to me that this woman has "flu" not flu. She has a cold.

    I had the flu last year, didn't see anybody for a week, including my girlfriend :( Definitely wouldn't have been up for hanging around on the phone chatting to Joe..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,999 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    Ah the poor pet, can you hear her coughing in the background... :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,684 ✭✭✭scargill


    whenever someone gets a snuffle or cough they think they have the flu.

    If you really had the flu you wouldn't be able to lift your head out of bed - never mind ring Joe!

    Very true - if you get Influenza you would struggle to walk across the room.

    A Cold is not the Flu.
