Independent.ie reports:

“Solicitor Brian O’Donnell has barricaded himself into his palatial home in a last-ditch effort to prevent the banks taking possession of it. The high-profile legal eagle invited members of the Land League anti-repossession movement to stay with him at Gorse Hill on Vico Road, in Killiney in Dublin – once valued at €30m.”
