    i wonder if it was your family on the receiving end would you be so understanding. I highly doubt it, im glad the majority of people dont share your point of view.

    And how would you feel if it was your family he owed the €18k too? What if your family couldn't afford to pay their mortgage because they didn't get paid?
    He stated he was British

    These guys could be ex-UDF, ex-paramilitaries, thugs etc. but to be fair, if someone calls pretty much any Irish person English, they immediately retort with "I'm Irish". Rightly or wrongly, I'd strongly suggest this was the case here. He said it in a response to being called Irish.

    People who are struggling to pay their mortgage due to falling on hard times but who engage with their creditor and pay what they can... do not get evicted. People should stop buying into the populist bollox that someone who is doing their best will still get turfed out. Don't be so gullible and so determined to believe that the business is always bad and the customer is always put upon.

    People who don't pay a thing, don't engage with the financial institution, and ignore REAMS of reminders, are the ones who get evicted. And when they're availing of a service but not paying towards it, something has to give.

    If anybody does not know that the lad from the UDA hit squad was leaving a marker card by identifying himself as British to these people to stoke tensions then they have no experience of these scum and how they operate.

    This case would not have had a thread but for the bank employing these scum.

    BREAKING NEWS...

    The elderly farmers and their sister are back in the house in Roscommon.

    The eviction was possibly not lawful. The "court order" was questionable.

    The family received legal advice.

    The family have said to the media that they will not be making any statements.

    Are we certain the bank employed them. I thought it would be the Sheriff who appoints the bailiffs?

    Source for them having been able to get back into the house? The story yesterday didn't make it clear whether the attack had actually been successful in driving the 'security' goons from the property.

    The problem here is that if you were to use Gardai, how would that look?

    What would that do for the public impression of the Gardai if they were to be seen "dragging old people out of their homes before Xmas!". What would it do for their morale.

    I agree that companies shouldn't resort to having to hire people to enforce their right to a court-ordered settlement.

    This should be the function of a specific agency attached to the courts whose job it is to take possession of a property, forcefully evicting residents where necessary.

    The UK have them, and it's a horrible job that should never be required, but the fact that people will ignore high court orders is what makes it necessary.

    But this agency doesn't exist, so unfortunately private companies DO need to hire thugs to evict people from the company's property.


    If you want to direct your protest somewhere, ask the Government why private citizens have to pay to enforce legal orders and why the state isn't doing it for them?

    as far as i understand evictions in the uk are contracted to private companies now. unless that has changed again.
    if it comes to a choice between the gardai and some private company then the gardai will always be the better option, even if it does mean an immage problem for them.

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    I can't talk about the legality of the eviction but how in the name of God was the court order questionable?


    Just out of curiosity, where are you getting the above information? Is it in the media?


    Edit. I see that the Liberal.ie are saying that the family are back in the house.

    So instead of a private company evicting someone (though why anyone has an issue with this I don't know, it's an issue between a private company and its customer) , the Gardai should do the bidding of a private company looking to recover debts? And your ok with that?

    Or is it just so rent a mobs can line up and chant at the Gardai for having nothing better to be doing and asking them are they proud of themselves?

    I know that page well. They usually post information about political scandals and conflicts of interest, in which case in my experience they tend to be fairly accurate - but usually, that information is compiled from public available data and reported on (for instance, videos of Dáil debates, tweets from politicians, etc). I have no idea as to their track record with breaking exclusive stories / scoops.

    Anyone else know if they have any proven record of being accurate when they report alleged facts before any other source has done so? Not casting aspersions, just genuinely unsure as to their record on this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 206 ✭✭megatron989


    One rule for those of us who pay our way. Another rule for those who don't I guess. Funny, I keep seeing this, yet I keep paying.

    Maybe I should stop paying my bills and I can live free aswel.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,063 ✭✭✭riemann


    I know next to nothing about this case or indeed the law in general, however if it's true that one of the lads has lived there for his entire life, will he not have a right to a share in the house and the property should not have been even allowed as collateral on a loan?

    If that's the case KBC, or whoever is involved, could be looking at paying out a few quid.

    So, are they illegally squatting in the bank's property - in breach of a court order?

    .

    Presumably, unless he signed the papers putting the house up as collateral.

    Of course this could have been the cute whore plan of the bother all along. Defraud the bank (he likes a bit of that) by claiming he's the sole owner and signing a contract he had no legal right to sign.

    It doesn't work that way unless he's registered owner on the deeds. And the owner still lives there and is alive.

    The answer here is, it depends. It wouldn't be unusual for one son to inherit a farm but that there would be an understanding that other relatives could live there with no legal property entitlement.

    Even up until very recently you could disinherit a spouse. Living there doesn't grant automatic title.

    Doesn't always work that simply my good man.

    If he has been 55 years living in the house, and if his sister has done the same, not many judges are going to send them to the side of the road.

    He probably built the house.

    I've heard of several instances like this, usually comes up after a bereavement where two siblings live together and the property has been willed to a niece or nephew for example. Again I don't really have a clue but time will tell.

    Someone, somewhere,
    probably earning a six figure salary had to sit at a desk in a suit and decide that hiring a British ‘security firm’ to evict Irish farmers off their land was a good idea,
    draw up the paper work and sign it
    I would love to know who that bright spark was :)

    While that bit above is true, someone somewhere who we know who they are - probably earning a six figure salary - owe money to the local quarry, bank and revenue because they didn't pay their bills.

    Someone somewhere
    decided they didn't have to pay the revenue, or co-operate with the revenue investigation,
    decided they didn't need to pay the mortgage.
    decided they didn't need to pay some of their suppliers
