More trouble in Paradise

https://www.dutchnews.nl/news/2019/08/n ... or-admits/

The mayor was commenting on a new report, leaked on Wednesday morning by the Telegraaf, which said the city authorities are unable to tackle drugs-related crime.

Tackling drugs has been a low priority for the Amsterdam police for decades, with only gangland killings getting proper attention,’ the researchers say. ‘And the public prosecution department concentrates on individual cases, not the underlying structures.’ Drugs lords make use of young men with low IQs who ‘want to belong’ to carry out their business – a trade which generates billions of euros a year. And behind the scenes the big drugs bosses have no trouble amassing large fortunes in what the Telegraaf called ‘a golden age for the Amsterdam drugs criminals’.

I have never seen anyone shoot up. Using nardol's logic, no one ever has.

And being a cheapskate student in the late 70s I can remember spending several nights in the concourse of Amsterdam main railway station, and seeing groups of 10 -20 junkies shooting up. Which was rather shocking to an 18/19 yr old Irish lad back then, but actually means fúck all bar personal recollection.

Anecdotal evidence. I wasn't giving anything more or less. Notice the use of the word 'I' a lot.

I once saw a young wan sticking a needle between the knuckles on her had during the afternoon on the corner of Pearse street and Westland row. Saw it as I was walking past and then realised after I'd gone by. She didn't seem like an addict from teh brief glance as I passed by, so just told myself it was insulin or something.

You're a fool and you've been done spoofing by good old facts and you haven't the balls to admit it. Won't stop your many bullshit posts about how Holland is like the future from Demolition Man.
What colour is Ireland in the cocaine and MDMA maps you provided? Maybe you are colour blind but to me its seems to be the exact same as the Netherlands?

Also Irelands average is skewed by Dublin

1990s
“ Ireland has a drugs problem. But beyond this simple statement we must also recognise that Ireland's drugs problem is primarily an opiates problem—mainly heroin. And beyond this, we must recognise that Ireland's heroin problem is principally a Dublin phenomenon.
—Pat Rabbitte, 1996.[1]

And Hollands isn't by Amsterdam no?

Dig up Simbo
Drug addiction is a problem in every town. Athlone has a significant problem due to some charity deciding to set up a rehab there many years ago. The junkies came to Athlone quickly followed by the dealers.

Yeah he’s about 20 years out of date with that. You can walk down buckingjam street or summer hill now no bother. There was a massive crowd by the five lamps last Saturday you wouldn’t have seen back in the day too.

Is the NCT a bit of a scam- what percentage of cars pass First time?

One of my tyres failed the NCT saying there was a gash on inside, brought to tyre centre they took off the tyre and couldn't find anything wrong with it. Did my retest with exact same tyre and passed.
There were a couple of other small things that needed to get fixed as well.

We had a very suspicious test recently. Got the car fully serviced, including four new tyres. Failed on loads of points, including two which the garage completely disagreed with. Also ended up with a gash on our tyre that neither me or my wife could have caused.

He's addicted to the place. We've seen it over and over again down through the years. Happens quite a lot of people if they're not careful, particularly if they're stuck in a rut.

I read an article a while back about how when the climate crisis really begins to bite the deniers will flip and use every argument that’s been used against policy now as the justification for theirs. Like you can’t increase fuel costs too Much because people will go cold will be they need to make do on less and we’re cutting welfare to accomplish it. Bimbo is living proof. The Germans have a saying that the greens are like watermelon, green on the outside and red on the inside, in the end they become avocado.

this is like something involving a Russian oligarch ; are we saying the tee total lad that gambled 50p in card games is behind it ? that is unfcukinbelievable ; how the fcuk he's not in jail for funding insider trade deals backed by fraudulent land deals, followed by wild goose chases around....this is a whole new level of sinister

if you're a sh1t lawyer......its documented that he sat with head of said bank and told them his position regarding shareholding of company and they had to come up with a plan how not to lose everything when share price plummeted and CFD's were called in - backed up by land deals for land that didn't exist ; just because the plan didnt work doesnt mean a crime wasnt committed.
