Rather than pay the €2 to park his car in a disc parking zone in the Mary Street area of [Limerick] city this Monday afternoon, one Sinn Féin councillor opted to leave a note on his dashboard… the daring sign did not deter local authority traffic wardens from issuing 22-year-old Cmhlr [Séighin] Ó Ceallaigh with a €40 parking fine…
Just the ticket for ‘cheeky’ Limerick councillor (Alan Jacques, Limerick Post)

Fair play to the Warden. Nice job.
No one could make a sign like that in paint on a windows 95 computer. It had to have been the Shinner.
It shows how much they’ve lost the run of themselves really.
What a complete a****ole. The making of the sign also makes it quite clear that he wasn’t just stuck for the €2 in a tush or an emergency. No, he just decided he was entitled to free parking. Git.
and wheres the 40E going to come from ? cough expenses cough
Plenty of ink in the printer, so why not?
haha!! Nice!
Boom, boom !
Be careful…he knows where you live.
And we know where he works :)
I might be wrong, but there’s a bang of photoshop off this. Whats with the dark halo? and the shadow in mid air at the top?
The red arrows look ‘shopped too.
Let’s get CllrSeighin O’Ceallaigh on the line.
(Sorry, just clearing my throat there).
It’s not photoshopped. If you click on the link you’ll see that he freely admitted it and says that the car was parked outside the SF offices.
The Councilor admitted the offence – no photoshop involved.
Since when did the truth get in the way of a good conspiracy theory?
*awaits anti-religious remarks about the rosary beads hanging from the mirror*
What a KN*BJOCKEY! Look at the rosary beads hanging from his mirror!
Happy now?
Jaysus look at the ******** rosary beads, knuckle dragging shinner ****! Where is your god now m80?
Seighin? so Shane Kelly really?
Well, no. If his name is Séighin Ó Ceallaigh, then that’s what it is.
No it’s not.
That’s just makey-uppy Shinners Gealgoir nonsense.
anyone with real interest in Irish would know the proper orthography : Séin would sound like Shane
No idiot.
Séighin Ó Ceallaigh is his name. The surname Kelly didn’t exist before the English started going around Anglicising Irish names as part of the penal laws and their campaign against Gaelic culture.
So well done. You must be proud as an Irish person to continue their work. Only thing worse than a willing turncoat is one too stupid to know that they are one.
no, cl0wn.
usual tokenistic crap from monolingual muppets.
Seighin doesn’t even conform to proper modern Irish orthography. but that went right by you didn’t it!
his website is all in English too, – real fíor Gael ha ha!
kn@ckers in Celtic jerseys are never going to revive Irish. fellow travellers like you should recognise that.
Corruption it starts with dodging parking fees and ends with taking thousands from developers!
Just a misunderstanding. His mammy puts name tags on all his stuff. There’s also one on his coat and trousers.
Bet his mammy never saddled him with such an unpronounceable fake name.
Apparently, he does it all the time….. I hope they check that street everyday from now on. He seems to think that he’s entitled to free parking when on council business too, the twat.
From Limerick Post
In response, Cmhlr Ó Ceallaigh said, “I was actually parked next to the Sinn Féin office on Mary Street. I park my car there every day and was actually at a Council meeting when I got a ticket.”
Thickbait!
Be nice Anne.
Ah Anne, I always am, except when I’m not. You know yourself :)
+ Another Anne. :)
Classy guy is Séighin Ó Ceallaigh. He’s wearing a Celtic jersey on his facebuke profile.
He’s 22. Give him a break.
That’s the problem with the republicans, they’ve given too many breaks, knee caps, ankles, elbows, skulls.
Being 22 is no excuse for wearing Celtic jerseys.
Are you implying he’s going to grow out of it? Because being a Sinn Féin councillor is a fairly big jump from the usual armchair republicanism one associates with the kind of scobes who wear Celtic jerseys. I’ve a feeling this guy will be even worse when he’s 32.
eh … horribly photoshopped.
Dismount your high horse there mate, he’s admitted to it.
Bit of assumption going on here as to why he placed the notice there. I’ve been at things in the past when everyone has been asked to put their names on their car – in case it needs to be moved or is blocking something, whoever needs it moved knows where to go and who to ask. The assumption that he’s doing a ‘Do you know who I am?’ is perhaps wrong.
Why the note then?
So that if the car’s in your way and you need it moved, you know who to ask for.
How many ‘Séighin Ó Ceallaigh’s are there parking in that area that he felt the need to specify ‘councillor’?
Fair enough if that is the case but it doesn’t explain why he didn’t purchase a parking disc
That’s a
kneecappinpaddlin’If Sin Fein ever end up in power I’d say that there won’t be a brown envelope available for love nor money in the country.
Looks like its time, to call time, on my “This car belongs to Councillor Odis” stunt.
As long as it’s only tattooed on your missus’ backside you should be grand.
That warden will be getting bullets in the post so. Brave move.
I don’t see the problem.
I regularly park my car with no disc, and I get away.. (I’m usually only 5 mins, y’ know yourself)
Maybe the sign on the window is in case he forgets which car is his?
It’s not like the sign read ‘This car belongs to Sinigy O Killigy and don’t you dare give me a parking fine’
*Get away with it.
That picture looks fake. It’s appears to be retouched. Look the outer glow around the paper, unnatural shadowing. I don’t buy this at all.
Was this sent in by a young Fine Gaeler as part of their relentless smear campaign against SF?
How do you know it was his car? Couldn’t anyone print a note like that? I hate the Shinners but this could be dirty tricks by anyone.
Sure he admitted it ya clown… De Shinners are getting to like the perks all the same, imagine the abuse if they got into power.
