Wibbs wrote: » What seems to be the real shift over the last few years is the shift to one extreme or the other and on all "sides". Either for Us™ or against Us™. The middle ground is fast losing traction for many. That's a worry. Not so much here in Ireland. Culturally we tend towards the middle, extremists of any hue left/right/whatever you're having yourself are the minority positions. Will a hardline "right wing" politic get votes here? Could well do, but I strongly suspect it'll be like your People Before Profit types, a couple of candidates out of the mainstream wheeled onto stages and the telly to make up numbers or act as clickbait. The Centre will hold. I mean let's face it to a visiting alien the only difference between rotating over decades governments of FF and FG are one letter.

DS86DS wrote: » I think the problem with threads like this is that there is a genuine discussion to be had about the affects of immigration on our society. In this instance, regarding African gangs attacking and threatening people in local Northside communities. But the usual leftists Invade the thread and start trying to thwart it. They've tried their best to try and thwart this thread in recent pages They are ideological fanatics with utter contempt for anybody who doesn't share their views and will do their best to run amok in threads and destroy the chance for a mature and open discussion about current Irish society.

Carry on your fear-mongering over 'the black gangs'. Give us some more hilarious pictures of black lads posing. Which website did you pick your last picture from? Was it the one with the headline "REPLACING IRISH WITH N*GGERS!" or perhaps 'Evil Irish Skanks Vote to Legalize The Murder of Their Own Children ...' or maybe 'African Youths Viciously Attacking' Some wonderful websites using your picture there.

What do you think we are/should be doing differently? This is an open series of questions to you, Dav or any other advocate for this migration on this thread. If you want your argument to be taken seriously, drop the petty name-calling and nonsense and engage constructively. Otherwise, continue as you are and the rest of us will continue to write you off as having no argument at all (and to everyone else: the best way to frustrate their "point" in that case is to simply not engage with them at all)
