    Not very subtly either.

    And yet you still haven't qualified your post.
    Good stuff

    there is nothing to qualify. i already said what my interpretation of the 'threat' post was. if you can't find my interpretation after i've drawn you a map then maybe a message board is too complicated for you.

    In fact, it detracts from your posts.

    being deliberately obtuse and implying i'm in cahoots with someone detracts from yours

    Sadly I have to post once more on this thread. The pm that deco has been so upset by was a hardly necessary courtesy to reassure him that all was well with the world .

    "I doubt you are worried, but just to set your mind at rest if you are, I have no allegiance to these people. I genuinely just hate bullies.

    42michael24 or whatever the **** he's called was correct. It was just friendly advice that you could feel bad about yourself in the end for sneering at those posts."

    So why put it in a pm, instead of on here.
    I am still full sure that the both of you are in cahoots.

    Funny that you were the only one beside him that read it that way.

    i'm going to complain to a mod if you say this again. all i'm doing is posting in here.
    even people i've gotten a bit testy with seem to respect that i have a right to an opinion, even if it differs ever so slightly from the prevailing. the first response i got from you in this thread was asking me if i knew Cash, now you're groundlessly accusing me of tag-teaming. that's your level.

    I f_ck1ng hate bullying pr!cks (using the word, specifically, in a non-gender assigning way). This woman has been publicly torn to shreds, not because of the incident that was initially reported and the very valid point she was making, but because people perceived her as being weak and a lessor human being than themselves. They revelled in the superiority of the situation.

    What the hell are you on about? You need to take a break. People are simply annoyed that this woman is brazenly gaming the system. Obviously.

    There's something wrong when the people working in Dublin have to look for houses in the surrounding counties but leeches like this one can pick and choose where she wants to live.

    I'm sure the people down my way hitting the road at 6am or earlier to commute to Dublin would love to be given a free house up there,they wouldn't turn one down.

    Quoting for clarity, running back to figure out and remember. That's not a good sign. Yes you, and everyone is entitled to an opinion.
    Doesn't mean you cannot be called out on it.
    And by asking you if you know cash, how is that wrong?.

    However, I do see what you are trying to get me banned now.

    It's a shame that it has come to this.
    But c'est la vie.


    Glad to see you added so much to the last post I quoted. Good on ya.... Ps, I added this last bit too ;)

    I don't really blame or look down on people who make full use of our over-generous welfare system and choose not to work. (All "hard working taxpayers" will also avail of every allowance, grant, rebate, assistance etc that they're entitled to.)

    It's human nature to have as easy a life as possible and to avoid engaging in soul destroying work. If the system allows it some people will take full advantage of it.

    People should be directing their anger at the current welfare system and politicians who won't reform it, rather than at people who work (pun intended) the system.

    More apologists. It's like Murphy and Coppinger are actively recruiting them now.

    Shouldn't you be apologising for fat people on planes, complaining about prejudice etc? You tried to complain about a bullying thread in AH but revel in this.

    I hate to admit it but I think she'll get to skip the queue on the housing list after all. The papers won't let up following her story. I can't see too many landlords willing to take them in knowing that they were overholding in their last place. I think she'll get the keys to her forever home soon

    I think you’re right. I just wish that the likes of the soldier and his wife were housed before her. Or any of the numerous families struggling to work and make ends meet in order to just pay their rent and put food on the table.

    The kicker will be that when she gets housed, whenever her husband is released from jail he will be living with them and the line will be “we are trying again for the sake of our children”. The single mother thing is a myth here and it’s a kick in the teeth to all the single parents who are raising families on their own.

    I believe they will make more money if he uses someone elses address & signs on as a single man. Her money drops a fair bit if she is no longer a lone parent with him living there

    Just getting to work now - left house at 6.10am.

    Love the enablers and apologists who put hard working taxpayers in quote marks, like we're not really!!!

    Feels good yeah! /sarcasm

    I am sure these have been asked but
    • where is the father or likely fathers?
    • where are her family?
    • where are the fathers family?

    Disgusting that papers do not ask these simple questions before diving headlong into a story like this
