Mother of two Teresa McDonagh, a daughter-in-law of Kathleen McDonagh, said she “got really vexed when she heard these foreign people had arrived in a bus”. She said she had put her name down for the property involved but the council told her the quota for Traveller families on the estate had been reached and they would not be able house another Traveller family there.https://www.google.ie/amp/s/www.irishtimes.com/news/social-affairs/travellers-picket-mayo-council-over-efforts-to-relocate-syrian-family-1.2879465%3fmode=amp
A number of local sources in the town say that a Traveller family living next door to the house in question were “not happy” about the Syrian family being housed there and protested outside the house as a result.

When I was crossing the road, another woman approached me, same deal with two kids in a pram and third older kid walking with her. She had an address in Gardiner Street and was trying to figure out which end it was at - to be fair its a long street and you don't want to go the wrong way with three kids in tow. So I googled the place, told her where it was, but also noted the google reviews that came up for the place she was heading for. Some sort of B&B up near Dorset st. All I can say is that you crib all you want about people living off the state but I really would not like to be in the shoes of that woman trudging up Gardiner Street to some sh*thole B&B with two toddlers and a four year old in tow. Free money it may be, but its not a pleasant life.

It is very irresponsible to be bringing children into the world when you don't have the basic things like a roof over their heads, food and education. And then they have more children to try and push themselves up the housing list. They don't care where their children sleep, why should I. If you can't afford them/look after them/provide for them, don't have them. It isn't compulsory to be a parent.

Police are said to think a criminal traveller family are responsible after a second attempted burglary at their £6 million estate.

A bias which makes them view a group that is not thier own as one - as one who all think or act the same leading to stereotypes.https://psychologydictionary.org/outgroup-homogeneity-bias/ Which is why I tried to make the point that settled people are not grouped into one group, yet they have committed the majority of serious crimes (murders etc) in this country. In fact it is only settled people that have ever led this country to civil war for example! The above logic is as sound as people saying that all travellers are xyz, one and the and the same! Unfortunately, the point I was making was lost on a lot of people on this thread, which they do not wish to, or cannot grasp. If you were to take the majority of this thread as gospel, travellers assault everyone, steal, constantly fight, none want to go to education beyond Junior Cert. Yet it was telling when I brought up the fact that a traveller became the first Primary techer in Ireland it was siezed upon as unfair because it was an access programme. But exactly the same thing is tried for disadvantaged groups in the settled community who need a push in the right direction.
