Met a young-ish heavy metal couple from Enniskillen on the bus to Donegal a few years ago, returning from a rock concert in Fairyhouse Racecourse in Kildare. Spoke very highly of Sean Quinn and family. Someone once told me reason Travellers don't wear glasses is because they won't. Seems as cissy-ish in macho Traveller culture. Or they grow old enough to need them, due to high infant mortality rate. I expect that Sean Quinn and family were seduced into borrowing money from credit-pushing banksters who exploited deeply ingrained native Irish famine-phobia. Can we anticipate a campaign to "Release the Maple 10!"
Getting an ex employee of Sean Quinns with a single bad word on him would be harder than finding a traveller wearing glass`s. Lets see how long till his thousands of employees turn into a sad workforce. They stripped him of a thriving business that would have paid the lot back long term, but he still would have owned it. Can`t have the wee man starting off with £100 getting too big for his boots.
Sean Quinn is a schyster who borrowed billions from the bank,the only thing the fool didnt understand was that he had to pay it back.That will tell you how stupit he and the banks are for lending him the money
It does seem the family is being used as the fall guys for the whole financial collapse. I don't know the whole story about the Quinns. He seems like a decent person. What about that one that took off over to the US. He seems to have gotten off lightly. He always had a sneer on his face, in the photos.
wtf From what I learned from the people I know in the Mid-lands, Sean Quinn was a hard working businessman running a thriving company. The government used Anglos problems as an excuse to get involved in Quinn’s company. Reminds me of when Ronald Regan said the most fearsome words you can hear are, I am from the government and I am here to help. The business is ruined plenty of people are out of work because of that and people are beating their chests and saying we saved you. I just don’t know what they saved us from, or who will save us from big government.
