Delightful story line from the Daily Mail I must say, I live in Kerry so I hope it doesn't end up here; Cork or Donegal would be most likely. Imagine a new breed of Cannibal Rats.

hard to believe this vessel was just set loose if it has a 600k scrappage value, ship looks in good nick as well

Boombastic · 24-01-2014 01:36AM

At least when they land they'll be among friends

JohnFalstaff · 24-01-2014 01:37AM

Well if they're cannibals we've nothing to worry about as they'll most likely devour each other before they reach our shores.

Seriously, who writes this stuff? And don't they at least look up the meaning of the word cannibalism before they print?

'We don’t want rats from foreign ships coming onto Irish soil. If it came and broke up on shore, I’m sure local people wouldn’t be very happy about it.’
Racist! Or is that rattist?

I for one welcome our new cannibal rat overlords

Rabelais · 24-01-2014 01:39AM

I'm concerned. I've arrived over from posting comments on the Guardian to discuss this latest provocative and lurid headline from the Daily Mail. My online outrage balance is all over the place!

The tow line snapped in rough seas.

the towing op would cost close to that to run a sea going tug I'd imagine, not worth the expense for no return.

Nuke it,we've enough dirty rats in this country

Sir Arthur Daley · 24-01-2014 01:42AM

Straighten yourself out quick sharp...you'd be an easy meal for them :pac:

Kilgore__Trout · 24-01-2014 01:42AM

What a headline. The Daily Mail is so ridiculous it's become a parody of itself.

JohnFalstaff · 24-01-2014 01:42AM

If they were R.O.U.S's, then I'd be worried.

lertsnim · 24-01-2014 01:44AM

Disease ridden rats. Opposed to the clean ones we have here?

Richard Hillman · 24-01-2014 01:47AM

Are they Rats that became Cannibals or are they Cannibals that became Rats?

Rothmans · 24-01-2014 01:52AM

We don’t want rats from foreign ships coming onto Irish soil. If it came and broke up on shore, I’m sure local people wouldn’t be very happy about it

Our hard-working indigenous rats could be put out of the job.

GopErthike · 24-01-2014 01:53AM

But, if it was a year ago it went missing, there will be only one rat???

crockholm · 24-01-2014 01:54AM

Fear not,I recently informed some entreprenureial salvage engineers about 600 tonnes of scrap metal floating in the North Atlantic,now they're gone off all "Hunt for Red October".
Said they'd do a good deal on my driveway as a finders fee.

24-01-2014 02:00AM

Only the Daily Mail could do a story about a ship full of rats adrift at sea and still get a little xenophobia in there.

enfant terrible · 24-01-2014 02:06AM

Read title as Cannibas rats, was confused reading article

Christ that's gas, if it's in the daily mail it must be true, some people will believe any auld sh1te.

Id be confident the ship sank

The warning signal that got picked up in like, March only goes off when the device comes into contact with water

Nothing a bag of cats couldn't sort if they were dropped on board a few miles out!

Well, they could sail her up the Shannon, turn right into the Deel, then onto home where they'd cut her up and sell her to the breakers yard in Tournafulla. And with all the radioactive gear on board ........ the rats' eye teeth may have turned into ivory tusks. A win win situation for those purveyors of all things dodgy.
Best of luck with the driveway!
