Man (75) facing eviction set to hold protest outside Permanent TSB
Briefly

"I'm trying to say to people that come, look, you don't have anything to be ashamed of. We all fell into this trap. I didn't do anything wrong. You didn't do anything wrong. We borrowed on the strength of our salaries at the time."
"I find this is a great way of relieving stress and tension by going public, I’ve been an environmental campaigner all my life but this is my house on the line."
"That got me going because I had been cooperating with them trying to find a solution, so I said look, I am going to go public on this and I raised as much awareness as I could."
"I borrowed €150,000 at the age of 59 and was given a 10-year mortgage by my mortgage provider, and at that time the €1,400 a month repayments were within my means."
