This is the man who said he was going to end the housing crisis in Limerick.

Former top civil servant now Landlord Mayor. This is why the country is fucked.

I think slumlord is probably a better description of this scum.

The Ditch are really turning into a sour bunch of losers

Wow it’s like having people in power that are landlords generating ridiculous profits is actually a conflict of interest, glad this doesn’t happen in dublin

What’s the problem precisely?

I feel sorry for the poor people of Limerick who have a person who is proven to be smart and successful working for them and has been voted in by them.

Man with money invests in the property market, and makes more money. Shocking!

23 properties and only 25000 a month?
That certainly doesn’t seem like he’s fleecing people. I only know of one on The Crescent in Limerick and it looks very nice and the rents are relatively high understandably so. That begs the question how little is he renting other properties for as I’d imagine the one property on the crescent is raking in quite a bit.

Was the limerick Mayor not voted in by the public this time round?
I was aware he was a landlord with a significant number of rental properties prior to the mayoral election so i dont think it was a secret.
Do people think that he had abused his short term as mayor to benefit landlords and himself or is it just another general bitching session with no real substance.

He canvassed and was very open about his background and experience? It was no secret that he is a highly successful person and people voted him in so what’s with the surprise?

These are the types of people deciding Immigration btw. I wonder if there might be a conflict of interest regarding housing and rental prices?

Lots of people adoring the taste of boot in here.

Nobody in the government should be a landlord otherwise it’s not in their best interest to end the housing crisis.

This is why good people don’t want to run for politics. We seem to hate success. Drag people over what is on the face of it normal business. If there was allegations of wrongdoing I’d get it.

23 properties is just greedy. How out of touch do you have to be to represent people when you can price so many of them out of the market. “Because I’m rich and you’re poor”

The irony of this sub is never lost on me. So socially liberal it’s insane, but also drink at the well of capitalism. Not one person here has a problem with someone in a position of power owning 25 properties. You’re all just blue shirts with a gay friend.

> among them a Manhattan apartment he lets for $6,700 a month
Crazy how international his portfolio is.

So, where’s the scandal? It’s not illegal to own 23 properties, he’s done well for himself.
