Well if he was living and working abroad he wasn't entitled to social housing here

And they do check you have been resident. So its prob not him.

If it is him he clearly has form for crying discrimination.

It might have been better or at least wiser if you had kept that to yourself.

I am not saying you are not.

I just wouldn't post about it on a public forum.

I mean you have people posting his personal media accounts ...on a public forum. (if that is him.)

Your not me. I am not looking for your advice. Thanks.

I will leave it up to the department of employment affairs and social protection to investigate.
Welfare cheats cheat us all.

In general, you must already be living in the area covered by that housing authority or have a local connection with the area – though a housing authority may agree to waive this requirement
Foreign nationals: you must have a legal right to remain in the State on a long-term basis. Detailed rules are contained in Circular Housing 41/2012 (pdf).

They do check to see if you are really eligible.

If you are saying they do not ....check for any eligibility ..i find this odd.

You are suggesting they don't check for a circumstance that would make the person ineligible ?

I'd prefer Trumps America compared to how we are living in this country now like bloody idiots. You get the impression anyone earning 30-50k saving up like a loon is a bloody idiot, meanwhile someone sitting on their hole since they left school before junior cert because their arsehole waster father and his waster scum father before him has accommodation handed to them that would be €1k plus a month for a productive person to live in.

People in council housing work so your argument isn't valid.

That says right to remain it refers to asylum seekers and international protection to get on to the housing list.

If you live and work in another country such as Canada you would not be entitled to social housing

Except for ones that owe close to 100 million in unpaid rents and arrears

It is pretty much if the majority aren't arsed paying it.
Even if the rates are extremely low in general.
60 percent plus in dublin alone

It is also extremely difficult to evict someone for non payment.

How many of that 63% are children or pensioners

This is fair. Its a genuine issue.

I still think people have to live somewhere though.

But arrears in council housing is a huge problem.

I don't know why it IS ...but its there.

He's no idea. You'll learn to ignore this poster where anything to do with social assistance comes to play.

Children are not considered as tenants it's the parent who sign for properties are the tenants

0, thats the stats for named applicants on the lease . Those on pensions account for 22% .

63% of council tenants of working age are only in receipt of welfare

Huge arrears in the private sector also. 100 million isn't that bad actually i thought it would be a lot higher.

Its from the governments own housing stats that you know well ive provided copies of hundreds of times. This is just sealioning at this point when a basic search would prove me correct

But when it's being abused to that degree it's not fair on anyone ,from tenants who pay to taxpayers who fund the subsidies ,
I seen local councillor's blaming covid on the arrears but they money owed predates covid by a few years

You don't know what it is?....come on...

I do...there is close to no threat of being evicted for non payment

As of November 2019...how many social housing tennants have been evicted for non payment of rent...in dublin..
https://www.irishtimes.com/news/social-affairs/first-dublin-city-council-social-housing-tenant-to-be-evicted-for-rent-arrears-1.4085923

Possibly one...

I am speaking as someone who was brought up in a council house. But you know what my parents worked their arses off and we moved and gave it to someone else, which is what the vast majority of able bodied working age people should do if they are lucky enough to get a council house.

I don't claim to know things that i actually don't know.

I don't claim to know eviction processes for council houses. Nor why the council can't screen risky tennants well.

So that is why i said i don't understand.

You could have said just that instead of being rude.

Yeah I thought it was a great moment.

But that has nothing to do with this thread does it?


Erm not sure what your personal gripe is?

Eh, well it does have something to do with the post I originally quoted.
But your mod friends obviously deleted it.
How was I being rude???
I said you were proud of it in regards to your socialism post.

Delighted you're getting your arsse handed to you in this thread.
