Watch: Residents facing eviction in Cork vow to fight vulture fund

Residents facing mass eviction from a city apartment block have vowed to defy their notices to quit.

The tenants of the Leeside Apartments complex in Cork, which is earmarked for a €3m refurbishment, plan to write en mass to the landlord claiming the notices are invalid. The pledge came after they protested outside the Bachelor’s Quay complex last night. More protests are expected.

The residents are being supported by Threshold, the housing advice agency.
