    No one in any party seems to care or see this anymore. Frightened of the R word I suspect.

    Whereas if they did tighten up things and just observed their UN obligations and refugee obligations too, ie you have one appeal and if it's unsuccessful, back home for you. I think most people would support them.

    I haven't met or spoken to ANYONE who supports the free arrival of people from wherever and being put up at our expense, and the lengthy process, and well you know the rest.

    Legal profession may have a big say in all this though, along with DP providers.
    Such people exist sadly. Probably around 10% or less

    Oh less than that amongst the general public but politicians fear the 90% plus a lot less than the media and activist class

    Ireland and the UK are seen as a soft touch. Asylum seekers are supposed to seek asylum at the first safe haven they reach.

    How the hell do Nigerians, Syrians, Iranians and the rest manage to arrive in Ireland under those terms?


    A lot are financial migrants, not asylum seekers, but Ireland hasnt the balls to kick them out. To many bleeding hearts.
