    Previously the Irish Times referred to him as a restaurant owner, and as a director of the company which runs the Headfort Arms (i.e., the home address he gave in the above court hearing). He also seems to operate under two names.

    So he may well have been lying/perjuring to the court today about his unemployed status, or conversely someone in the right department should be having a look to see if he is claiming social welfare whilst actually running a business.

    "Company records show Mr Mureddu, who also goes by Antonio Gravegliu, is the director of the company which owns the Headford Arms Ristopub in Headford, Galway."

    Recent updates to Revenue and Social Welfare IT systems have sped up identifying instances whereby people claim and return a PRSI stamp for paid work. It makes identifying potential false claims a lot easier, so if he is then he will lose a payment. Of course, it should be pointed out that employees of a business who isn't forwarding on tax and PRSI records may not be flagged for such instances.


    Equally, it is plausible that his business is closed and he's getting PUP or other Covid payment. Ironic much?

    Last tripadvisor review is from December 2020 and then there's none before that back to 2019. No Google reviews in the past three years except one pointing out who the owner is.

    a former work colleague of mine who has gone off the deepend of anti vaxx tosh posted an article supporting an italian restaurateur from wexford who is taking the bold stand of refusing to discriminate against people due to their medical status.

    Translation, can't be arsed checking covid certs.

    I did a quick google of him hoping to find a link with the bould antonio, but instead, on the facebook page of the restaurant is Bobby of the family Sludds from a decade ago on this thread warning him to record everything.

    Still campaigning for truth justice and the freeman way after 10 years.

    Living an ordinary life without constantly looking for loopholes is just so much less stressful.

    Always the anti-government types who rely on handouts. People who don't recognise the legitimacy of various governments are quick to STFU when it comes to the topic of claiming the dole from those same institutions.

    There were a load of scruffy squatters who took over a building on Parnell St in Dublin about 5 or 6 years ago, called it the Barricade Inn or some crap. Three or four times, the guards attempted to gain entry but were ultimately pushed back. I used to work nearby and was walking past one morning when I noticed there was a Guard standing at the front door instead of the usual unwashed, man-bun hipster lad who was there. Rumours circulated soon after that the guards waited until they had all left to go to the post office to collect their "wages" before storming the place.

    Breaking News from Mayo!

    Manning today performed a citizens arrest on Gards who were serving notice to appear in Belmullet Court tomorrow committing criminal offences by tresspassing on his property. Being the honourable, brave law observing citizen that he is, he pinned in their car and told them to leave, before locking himself into his house dwelling. He then rang 999 on them to get Gards over to arrest Gards but not before performing a live stream on Facebook to beg for help. In the meantime, some five cars attended to his summons serving self.

    Of course, he's playing clueless to what it's all about other than it being some sort of a criminal conspiracy against him. After some waffle on a video of Ben (The Blind leading the blind, if you will.) he mentioned that it's at the beck of a district judge on foot of papers he's serving papers on, and he'll have videos to follow.

    Sounds like one less turkey will be required in Mayo this Christmas.

    it really is a parallel universe these lads to be living in !!

    This is the same Manning fella who failed to spot the massive traffic signs on College Green in Dublin warning drivers that the route was a bus lane and not to drive down it .... of course he drove down it and when he was pulled in he tried to say that the garda car was following him all day and due to this tail he was out of sorts and was forced down the wrong way ...... nothing is ever their fault !

    watching his videos now, I really dislike this man, he's the worst

    Gilroy on his video call with Manning said that he had carried out plenty of citizen's arrests ... are all these from his time as a security guard in a shop or from his more recent days as the saviour of the Irish people ?



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,048 ✭✭✭Bunny Colvin


    The thing about Manning and the rest of these people is that it's all about them. It's all done for attention.

    I haven't seen him in a while but I wasn't surprised to hear him going on about Covid being a hoax in order to control us, everything's a conspiracy man!



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,686 ✭✭✭whippet


    Joe Dooley is the legal wizard Manning has representing him in court - what could possibly go wrong.

    The silver bullet must be the ‘serving of a fiduciary’ on the judge ….. Hand written of course …. These magic words take all the powers of office off the judge.

    It seems like a great way to do what you like with out reproach …. When being arrested turn the game in to something like kiss chasing - arrest the arresting guards - and then like Monopoly use your ‘fiduciary’ as a Get out of Jail Free card.

    It seems that Judge Allen has had enough of the stream of Freemen who aspire to quasi-respectability. There's one or two of these who think that because they've shuffled the odd piece of paper for a solicitor, they're the finest legal minds available.

    The plaintiff acts for himself but in the background, there is a man who describes himself as a process server and crops up reasonably regularly in the chancery list as “assisting” litigants in person. The extent of this person’s involvement in the case now before the court is not altogether clear but to the extent that his involvement is clear, it clear that he does not know what he is doing. To a greater or lesser extent, this case should serve as a further reminder to litigants in person to beware of unqualified persons holding themselves out as being in a position to assist.

    Old favourite on this thread, Tom D'Arcy had another bad day recently where one of the people who he reckons cruelly stood in the way of him making untold riches as the property developer of McMansions had Tom's homespun action struck out on the grounds of delay. Tom, in his wisdom, decided not to do nothing to progress the proceedings since 2016.

    There may not be anything obviously 'freeman' about this case (yet, has potential), but I'm going to put it here anyway as it sounds like great fun. My favourite bit is the prosecuting QC standing on a chair holding his laptop up to a camera to enable the defendant to see it.

    It would appear that Jim Corr actually got vaccinated despite over a year of anti-vaccine activism

    not to be defending jimbos right to privacy, but I think to cover himself properly the manager should have responded, that "we do not comment on individual cases" and just insist no one gets in without a cert


    it's not like these chaps are wildly litigious or anything...

    Awful bang of freeman off this:

    Legal actions being brought to Irish courts by litigants-in-person are becoming a “major and increasingly problematic issue”, the Law Society of Ireland has said.

    The Law Society said on Sunday that many Irish judges have become “extremely frustrated with the needless time wasting” of individuals or parties who are unrepresented by a solicitor or barrister or self-represented – known as litigants-in-person.

    ...

    The comments follow a warning from High Court Justice Nuala Butler that too much time is being taken up sifting through the cases of litigants-in-person.

    Ms Justice Butler said there was “frequently an unwillingness” on the part of such litigants to accept any adverse ruling in actions they bring, according to a report in Sunday’s Business Post. Many of these cases are characterised by “dense, repetitive and prolix pleading” along with multiple applications and appeals, Ms Justice Butler was quoted as saying.

    She added that causes of action were “rarely clearly identified or properly pleaded” and that the time it took to deal with many of their applications was often “completely disproportionate” to the importance of the case.

    Many litigants-in-person cases come from people who cannot afford representation or do not qualify for legal aid. However, some choose to self-represent because they do not want a lawyer while others cannot find a lawyer willing to take on their case.

    It was reported in this paper last year that up to 70 per cent of home repossession cases in the Circuit Court involve litigants in person and litigants in person also feature in about one third of appeals before the Court of Appeal.

    Some good old fashioned batsh1t insane Freeman at work in Cork (and there's more in the subsequent tweets. It's been a while since we've spotted them in the wild.






  • Registered Users Posts: 3,130 ✭✭✭eldamo


    unfortunately she had to delete the main body of this due to pile on from the loonies, I can see some tweets around it with a legalese randomly CAPITALISED notice saying they would place lien on her property unless she rebutted all of her points,

    any memory of the points she needed to rebut?

    I work in the Revenue where we get post and open it up and the amount of letters we get from people like this claiming stuff to get out of taxes and doing legal action it is like you can not find these letters on a website download them change what you have to and then send it on

    Well, our friends from the Sovereign Seal Turning Society are back in town tomorrow. Sadly the seal remained unturned last year, or perhaps they turned it but didn't tell us; either way the State didn't explode with shame or hypocrisy just yet.
