Bernard and Ann McDonagh from Port Talbot

So, not Travellers then.

Perhaps they aren’t but you know full well that several of them have bought houses in the area.

Unless there is (can happen!) a very bizarre coincidence? The surname of the arrested matches a large family that once lived approx 8 miles away from Port Talbot! The individuals/family that I have in mind are not what I consider to be Port Talbot locals i.e. 'outsiders'.

Big Irish contingent in Sandfields of Irish, i know as I've worked with most of them. Swinging off steel beams 20m in the air, whilst not wearing a harness. Tough as teak they all are.

God time has flown, and on the subject of Port Talbot (on Welsh News tonight) i.e. the same bitter sweet emotions from myself, like with the sub-contract take down of Otto-Simon Carves Ltd portal frame building on the steelworks site as a kid only months out of school..... and with (yes indeed) no safety harness and no working off raised platforms. The end of an era, No Irish there however!

It was indeed a case of walk the RSJ via the left/right bottom flange(s). But still far less of a balancing act than walking a certain Aldershot Bridge, where walking on one outside beam with both feet, as opposed to using two feet on two beams was the only option allowed. No purling on bridges however!

How times have changed and the way ‘the gang’ of teenage waifs joined 9 Squadron Engineers and South Wales Police etc. And the boss now a multi-millionaire, index funds hey?

Bernard McDonagh and his wife Ann McDonagh from Port Talbot ate hundreds of pounds worth of food from restaurants then fled without paying

Long overdue a few weeks in the slammer.

Ha ha, Jesus they are going after these guys, the eldest kid walked in about teatime and showed me this picture, but it's gone everywhere. I don't blame the owner for putting it up.

Scrap that, thought it was a new thread

These were the very lot along with the Joyce traveller family who, because of EU directives/law(s) became subject to mass-protests from the communities that were shortlisted to have a traveller site situated in their locality.

There was a lot of anger from local councilors within (unreported!) Swansea City council also, because they had absolutely no say whatsoever in this issue, because undemocratic EU law meant that undemocratic EU politicians were dishing out the orders instead.
Meaning that Swansea City Council was powerless to do what was best for its own rate payers on issues that were neither democratically voted for, or agreed upon on U.K/Swansea soil.

The protestors and communities were subject to malicious false accusations of racism, but numerous criminal incidents before and after, that were/are so utterly appalling in nature gave full justification for those community protests.

The funny thing is? Residents and protestors were branded racist for NOT wanting travellers living close by! Now get this information and this is straight from the horse’s mouth, albeit unreported by biased BBC loons….And that is?.....

The shortlisted traveller families refused to share a site and to live side by side close to each other by taking a similar stance as the protesting communities. So who are the racists now? And boy didn't the BBC not arf help push the "victim status" false narrative of traveller families responsible for leaving so many traumatised victims in their wake!

So were these two travellers then? Because otherwise I'm not sure what your post has to do with this story?

A certain "Bernard McDonagh" along with a female member of the Joyce traveller family were both interviewed seperately by BBC Wales around 2013. Not on internet to my knowledge.
Both belonged to the traveller families that were subject matter regarding the consultation process involving Swansea City Council and residents opposed to traveller site.

 

[exiledclaseboy]

Yeah EU law has never specified where traveler sites should be located.

 

[Darran]

Pikeys.

 

[Wing_Stand_Wood]

Local authorities have obligations under section 6 of the Human Rights Act and Article 8 ECHR to provide adequate sites for Gypsy, Roma and Traveller people.
