"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

I have removed... I was just trying to think for the last two hours since one of your producers rang me to go on the show.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

I think I've removed about seven clamps in the last eight years.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

Cutting locks.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

Well, the best thing, as I say to everyone, is if you go into Lidl's, when they have their tool sale on, it's 90 euro, around 90 euro for a cordless grinder.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

You get a battery and a couple of discs with that.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

And you'll have the lock taken off in less than 30 seconds, off the clamp.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

And the whole idea is you leave the clamp there and they will never bring it to court or never, you'll never hear anything you get about it.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

So basically, you are talking about private car parks.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

You won't get away with it with Clare County Council or Dublin County Council if it's a council-owned car park.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

But they won't clamp you anyway.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

They will mainly, say, give you a ticket or a fine and you'll have to pay that fine because if you don't pay the fine, they'll bring you to court.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

But the private companies will not bring you to court because it's not worth their while, CiarΓ‘n, bringing you to court for a €120 clamping fine.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

And that's the reality of it.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

I have a business in the age of 25 years and I will not bring someone to court who owes me money for less than €2,000 because it's not worth your while.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

And that is the way the law is at the minute.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

And that is just a way of taking advantage of the situation that the likes of myself, I will do it all day long because people have done it to me in the past.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

I don't know whether it's criminal damage or not.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

To be honest with you, I don't really care in a sense, CiarΓ‘n, because I think these clamping companies are money-making machines.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

And if you want the typical example of why I cut two clamps one Sunday morning, if you want to hear it, it's up to you.

Liveline
"As long as I get away with it I will do what I have to do"

Going out in Naist for a couple of drinks one Saturday night and parking in a private car park and paying for 12 hours parking.
