Town councillor hits out at ‘Prada-wearing Travellers’

A senior member of Ennis Town Council has hit out at “Prada-wearing Travellers”, saying that any Travellers convicted of being involved in feuds should have their social welfare entitlements withdrawn.

Cllr Frankie Neylon, who welcomed Muhammad Ali in 2009 to Ennis as mayor, backed a call from colleague Cllr Paul O’Shea that Travellers convicted of being involved in feuding should have their welfare entitlements withdrawn.

Cllr Neylon said: “They should be hit in the pocket.”
