Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6I thought it "too" un-local to mention here before but now it seems relevant.
NYC has seen very serious lobbying and protesting these last weeks indeed months over housing issues.
on May 5th NYC housing board with responsibility for rent charges and precint "housing estates" in the NYC state increased average rents by 5.5-5.7%
Other tied issues were increases in subway fares.
This may seem far away, but unfortuanetly in todays "business management" culture, ideas which source in rightwing thinktanks in the USA "on the banks of the Potomac" find their ways into you local chamber of commerce and local council/corporation within five years.
All the nastyness of the London Authority may be traced to NYC, and trust me the Irish equivalents will be happy to "implement" such "rationalisations" as soon as they get back from the "fact finding missions".
- these people get free accomodation and they're still whineing.... um yeah, globalisation stuff.. erm militarism, corporate something etc. etc. .. go get a fucking job!
Dear Mr. Angry,
We at Bush’s Universal Military Movement [B.U.M.M] are currently scouting for future recruits to join us in our crusade of ridding the world of intelligent and interesting people and we think that you are our man.
We are impressed at your prolific ability to lash out in rage at topics you clearly don’t understand and your ability to flaunt your ignorance with force, and feel that you have a destiny with us here at B.U.M.M.
We will be in contact with you in due course,
Keep up the Good work.
They destroyed the old Towers. Pissed in and vandalised the lifts. They get new houses which would cost civilised people $350,000 and they are still not satisfied.
‘They’ unfortunately do not have golden toilet paper to wipe their precious bums or gardeners to tend their acres of land. Indeed your suggestion to ‘fuck em’ has already been suggested and acted upon by everyone and anyone that didn’t happen to grow up in a deprived area.
We did not vandalise the area or piss on our doorsteps.
