A new location to tell you no cars available ha ha
Great, and very well overdue
The only way to beat a bad antisocial scrote with an attitude problem is a good Garda scrote with an attitude problem.
Police to go policing. Great to see it.
I spent a bit of time of pub doors 20 years ago and Gardai were generally on the beat within 3 or 4 streets of the pub. They’d walk past and have a chat numerous times during the night. I don’t be out as much as I used to but it seems to me you rarely see them walking the beat anymore. Yet there’s plenty of them unable to help you when you go to a station to get something stamped.
Doesnt really help if the fucking Gardai just hide in their office as usual.
Need more Gardai in general. They have a pisspoor public presence and outside of Dublin I can go days or weeks and not see a single guard. Even places like Galway or Limerick have a very poor police presence even at exactly the times they should have it.
Time to invest in the mounted unit I reckon
About time, place is getting run over by dodgy crowd. I was there briefly to collect something from the store and the amount of shady personalities I saw was making me feel unsafe. Definitely Garda stationed there will have A LOT of things to do, lets hope they will be visible on the street and not hiding inside the office behind the closed doors.
Reminder that they used to have a Garda station on O’Connell street before.
They closed it down and it became Ned Kelly’s Casino. Outstanding move /s
So will this mean more garda on the street tackling the issue or more garda in meeting talking about how to tackle the issue
Change the laws. Introduce mandatory sentences for repeat offenders
If we’re low on prison space build a new prison
Badly needed and could go some way in helping to recover the pretty bad public image Gardai have in this country. Any experience I’ve heard with any Garda is that they’re either hapless or absolute sticklers devoid of common sense, with no in between. At least if they’re out in the city centre actually doing police work and being useful, it might put more faith in them while also improving the Gardai themselves by being in more urgent situations.
Hope it’s built with a nice big exterior yard so they can play chasing or tip the can in between ignoring calls from domestic abuse victims
Leo is definitely going to be found innocent.
Isn’t there a garda station around the corner on Abbey Street?
O’Connell Street is a wild wild place these days. I think more policing is treating the symptoms rather than the illness, but it’s definitely needed there.
They’ll need a huge hose too.
If what was going on in Dublin city centre was happening in any other city in Europe it would be flooded with police.
This is a small, very positive step towards the gardaí finally getting to grips with the policing situation in the city centre.
Long term, we need to start considering whether the present structure of the Garda Síochána is fit for purpose in the third decade of the 21st century.
A lot of their time is taken up with lengthy operations (such as the burglary one which culminated) outside day to day policing, so why not have a formal split and have two police forces to handle crime – a criminal police and a public order police. If there were a public order police, this could even be devolved to county level like Spain’s local police.
This is quite common in other European countries such as Spain, Portugal, France and Germany. Even the likes of Prague have a City Police force.
It’s like when they park a sometimes manned paddy wagon down the grand parade in Cork. Kids do not care at all. Unless gards start pouring out of it after them. I’ve seen a youngin fist fight happen literally outside the door of the wagon only to show it was locked up and unmanned
Any will make no difference without any actual repercussions for those they actually catch doing things. It’s always either a slap on the wrist or if actually convicted of anything just another to add to their list of hundreds. Either way they’re back at it almost immediately
They just need to introduce more community service sentences, so they can be put to use cleaning up the streets of pineapples and the sort
The guards won’t waste time on it as there no space in prisons to put people in to them. So there zero hope of it fix anything if you want to solve the problem build a fucking prisons
There’s a Garda station behind my house in MountJoy Square and they don’t do squat in this area. The Brazilian neighbours get the worst of it from the scrots. There’s still the same old rules stopping them from doing anything to 17 year old ‘children’ lighting stuff on fire and throwing it through the letterbox or throwing cinder blocks at the windows, or shooting people with fireworks in the winter season.
I guarantee this will do nothing for antisocial behaviour if the rules behind arresting/sentencing them don’t change. I don’t expect Garda to be able to police a big social housing flat complex here anyway when all the scrots producing scumbags who own the whole turf are out numbering them anyway.
I read this with an introverted mindset and almost shat myself
My Family love Belfast due to how safe it feels and wont got near dublin. thats how bad things have got. I know its a complicated issue but this is a long long overdue step in the right direction.
Could just build housing and social services to get an actual result from the money spent in the long run by preventing the trouble occurring in the first place.
Rather than another station filled with incompetent idiots that will do nothing except cost us money.
This is just re-opening the Garda station on O’Connell st. isn’t it?
I was in town today & thought I’d play spot the Garda. We walked from Henry St North side all through the city, Sth of St Stephens Green then back up to Tara Station. Guess how many I saw?? 1. Not good enough.
It’s all irrelevant unless they lock up the perpetrators.
We need mandatory sentencing, as the judges have proven to be too soft.
Every pub needs its own Garda office. Even the Starbucks need a Garda office.
I have wondered why garda barracks are so far away from the town centres. Every town should have a unit that is manned by gardai in close proximity to the shops /restaurants to deter anti social behaviour.
