You'd think access to the EU labour force would be enough, with loads of Polish (with great work ethic) were coming over, but Fianna Fail decided to let 40,000 Africans in too. Even though we had no treaty/legal requirement to let in so many. Which part do you dispute?

If child recieves an ASBO child benefit is automatically stopped. If child gets a second ABSO, parent is fined. If child gets a third ASBO, parent loses all state benefits, welfare, housing benefit etc. There should be zero tolerance for this ****.

But for serious offences, that means jail time first, then immediate deportation, to avoid "criminal tourists" eg. Roma shoplifters.

Curious, attack happened so close to a Gardai station, and they only sent out two to confront a feral group of 40 youths?? The arrested girl, friend of victim, was giving out that the Gardai didn't do much. I am honestly getting Fed up of all these violent youth gangs running amok, and the ****ing laws protect them because they are "underage". Should be changed to have anyone past 12 to be tried the same as an adult. These groups are fully aware they are 'untouchable' because of how lenient the law is towards them, and said laws being harsh on people that did anything towards them. ****ing joke. Bring back police with batons knocking them senseless.

Courts dont ****ing work on these teenage scumbags and if Gardai were to beat the **** out of them - they would get a massive public backlash from those PC advocates: "But they are just kids, leave them be".
