The way the "oh no we're not SF supporters/members, no sireee" are posting attacking Casey shows to me that HQ must be worried that Casey will poll strongly along the border, particularly Donegal. This would potentially leave Carthy in a dogfight for his seat.

Which would probably scupper the plan of McCarthy running for the Dail and putting in a nominee to the EU in his stead .

just for info, Ireland has one of the lowest figures for accepting asylum and deports hundreds every year. are there issues in the system?, of course

Casey, in fact, suggested that we should not accept any economic migrants and "send them back"

given he is an economic immigrant himself I find it a bit ironic

I don't think he's against anyone who comes to the country through the proper channels.

Ireland had a low acceptance of asylum seekers because quite obviously the vast majority are found to be bogus. Genuine refugees generally don't overfly/transit safe countries for refuge.

Ahhh FFS are you having a laugh now?

Looking after your own is not the definition of conservative.
Communists and socialist have been very adept at it.
Ever notice all those labour appointed staff when they get into government ?

If you look it up you'll see communism and socialism are differing ways of looking after everyone equally.

Casey will get their votes and there's a hell of a lot of them.

Thugs? Not automatically surely? Robbing the state? Those lying, if availing of state aid, sure.
Anyone who falls for him deserves him as a representative. He'll likely be laughing at them. He'll be advocating draining the swamp soon, like that other rich fella full of shoite.

Fascism wasn't reserved to 30's Germany. It has a long and inglorious past. Nice that you recognise your own behaviour for what it is. Casey is from Derry why would you seek to deport him? as for calling him a freeloader your ignorance is hilarious.

He's a tax dodging freeloader he contributes nothing to Irish society and is a recent immigrant to this country surely he should be booted out?

Here's generated a bit of needed debate if anything.

And that had to be a good thing.

More ignorance on your behalf. You do understand the tax arrangements of a US citizen and dual taxation I take it. Recent immigrant? He was born in Derry and holds an Irish passport. You really are looking very foolish now.

This proves to me you didn't listen to what he said. He did not suggest putting people who were genuine aslysum seekers back on a plane. I asked you yesterday to stop telling lies, you're old enough to know better.

So Peter gets to decide who is bogus or not?

There's a tribunal that determines if an individual should receive refuge in Ireland. Located just off Sandwith St in Dublin.

Yeh, I voted Higgins in the Presidential election, and planning to vote McGuinness in the Euro's.
Real fine secret SF bot activity alright!

:D

You have such an interest in Casey, surely you know the answer to your own questions?

It's actually a bad thing. People don't need sensationalist chancers to broach subjects. The danger is he's using a genuine concern some have to further himself and if any trouble comes from it he couldn't care less once he gains a few percentage points in the polls. He's not for calmly tackling issues just using low hanging fruit.

You have also indicated you plan to vote for the SF candidate aswell, even though in your own words you are not a supporter. Just a question but how does voting for a SF candidate mean you are not a SF supporter?

I know the figures. What figures did Casey give in his 'truthful' outing of this 'problem'.

Does voting McGuinness make me a FG supporter, or voting Higgins a Labour one?

Guess I have a lot of bot-ing to do so. :rolleyes:

Yes I understand it just fine thank you I'm just using the same ignorant points he raises against him or more to the point i'm just using a lazy generalisation about a group of people in this case dual citizens of USA and Ireland it's annoying when people do that isn't it?

He'll just do what he did with the traveller storm he created. He'll walk away, refuse to talk about it again and watch any good work done go up in flames.

Strange asking a question you already know the answer too. But I see your question was addressed you now engaged in goal post moving.

What figures did Casey use? Simple question. Surely if you are going to raise an issue, you would first outline the problem?

*The question wasn't about what I know.

Yesterday you clarified for a poster that Maria Walsh would be respresenting FG in Europe if elected. So ergo voting for McGuiness you support FG as a vote for McCathy is also support for SF. Twist all your want but they are party members and voting for them you support their respective parties.

So I support FG first and SF second. How does that fit with your 'I'm a shinnerbot sthick'?

Not very well eh?

I didn't call you a shinnerbot. I said you support SF that's by your own admission despite you claiming you don't.I know it's pointless asking you to stop lying but one can but hope.

You have referred to me as a member of SF.

Is this another of your 'the lovely girl contest' is not the same as the Rose Of Tralee' three card tricks?
