I'M sure all of my fellow boardsies will be deligted to know that they have contributed to paying for this act or corporate fraud!

Can't wait to see how the Quinn apologists explain this away.

Let them eat cake !Jeez!

Wanderer2010 · 30-09-2012 10:37AM

No point in trying to open the eyes of the Quinn lovers, truth is if that man commited multiple murder in full public view, some people would still love him and support him. And for what? Creating a few hundred jobs years ago, wow, that gives you some amount of slack with the Irish people. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Cee-Jay-Cee · 30-09-2012 10:37AM

Maybe we'll all get a slice seeing as we're paying for it!

cloud493 · 30-09-2012 10:38AM

Spending 100 grand on a cake :eek: Christ, wish I was rich.

Remmy · 30-09-2012 10:39AM

But he fixed the road!!

The cake was from a wedding in 2007. To my knowledge their business did not get taken over until 2009 or so...

How is this a taxpayer cake then?

Praetorian Saighdiuir · 30-09-2012 10:41AM

€100,000 and not a single sprinkle!

KKkitty · 30-09-2012 10:41AM

Tiers are coming into my eyes reading that

How did the taxpayer pay for it if Quinn group paid for it five years ago?

Because it was paid for with money from a dodgy business that the quinn gang ran which now owes us, the taxpayer, billions.
Every non life insurance policy sold in this country for the next 40 years will have a levy on it to pay for the quinn gangs activities, never mind the billions they owe us from their dodgy share dealings in Anglo!

Solicitors get all the wimmins

So... are you saying that every dollar they ever spent was taxpayer money? How far back does this accounting go?

van_beano · 30-09-2012 10:46AM

Don't forget he built that roundabout outside Quinndirect on the way into Cavan Town!

I was thinking the same to be honest.

Does that include the money they used to pay all the people employed at the company for the past 30 years, or just the money they spent on their family?

As much as I don't like the quinn family, this is really just clutching at straws TBH.

It happened 5 years ago and was charged to his company. Nothing wrong with that at the time

mikemac1 · 30-09-2012 10:53AM

Would have been a better article if they had a picture of this cake

I want to know what 100,000 will buy you

jd007 · 30-09-2012 10:54AM

100K on a ****ing cake?! What is wrong with people?

30-09-2012 10:56AM

Ehm...you're not supposed to bill your wedding cake to your business.

Light Switch · 30-09-2012 11:00AM

Actually, under company law there might be a whole lot wrong with it, either way it's the taxpayer who is now actually picking up the tab for it, amongst the billions of Euros these slime have cost us.
2007 by the wqay was about the time they started their dodgy share dealings in an attempt to make a quick killing in Anglo!

Ted_YNWA · 30-09-2012 11:06AM

So if the company paid for this 5 years ago, does that mean the taxpayer has paid for all expenses the business incurred ?

Stop the presses !!!!!!!

The tax payer has bought 6000 rolls of bogroll for Quinndirect staff !!!!!

Poor Uncle Tom · 30-09-2012 11:10AM

I like cake........

Like I said at the start it waould be interesting to see how the apologists for this crime gang would go about defending their greed, criminality , and excess.

no, he didnt, he ran HGV goods vehicles all over the republic wearing the roads

to add insult to injury, he bought said Lorries in N.I. thus avoiding Irish taxes and Motor Tax

The Queen was grateful for Sean Quinns loyalty to her exchequer

Is it not you who got rid of "overpaid" minimum wage workers here, to pay chinese workers instead? So is it just the quinn illegality you have a problem with, or the greed?
