I can't seem to find the story about the Islamic protests in the UK in most places, it's not on the Journal or RTE's website from what I can see. How they can justify stuff like this is beyond me. I hate to repeat myself, but if was Christians doing similar, it would be prime time news all week.

They do try to accuse her of being heartless considering her own parents were Ugandan Indians fleeing Idi Amin, but there's no comparison. Ugandan Indians had deep ties to Britain, with many of them already holding British citizenship. They were in genuine danger of death - Amin had threatened to kill them all. And they were overwhelmingly hardworking, entrepreneurial, self-sufficient and culturally compatible.

I've found that the more multicultural a school is, the less friendly it is, and the less the parents will get involved in contributing. Add the resources issue with the school having to deal with non-English speakers, and cultural and religious differences, and it becomes a place you don't want to send your kids. I saw this happen to a formerly lovely school with a strong sense of community around it - within 20 years Irish kids became a minority and everyone keeps to their own little groups. It's depressing.

Kivaro wrote: » I posted the same thing a good while back. Just looking at the lack of backbone of Irish politicians to take on the liberal left and their push for unsustainable non-EU migration into Ireland at all costs while we are sorely lacking adequate services for the people already living in the country e.g. a million people on hospital waiting lists, I envision a person from Poland or even further afield to save us. In essence, they will be saving the Irish from the Irish. When they finally step forward, they will be successful.

The minute Far Right movement in Ireland, is magnified by NGO'S who need to tilt at windmills to justify their need for existence and, crucially, get more funding.

However exceptionally these self same antennas failed them completely in the last GE when unexpectedly SF took the lions share of the 1st preference votes, while some of the "regulars" had to go as far as the 18th to get elected. But as soon as they think that anti-immigration sentiment is growing, they will change accordingly. The problem is will it change in time?
jmreire wrote: » Give it time..the Traveller issue in Ireland goes back generations, and the 330'000 who voted for Casey, all had personal experience's with them. Now the immigration issue on the other hand is relatively new here, at least in the present Nrs. But there is growing dissafaction with the whole immigration issue, but like many have posted here, to speak out or even seek informed discussion on the subject is tabboo , lest you bring the hellfire of racism, the woke and PC brigade's down on you. The problem is that the longer it takes to address the whole issue, the worse the problem will become, and the harder it will be to fix it.

TomTomTim wrote: » Being able to discuss the topic on a national level would be a start. As bad as many European countries may be, there's at least the ability to discuss immigration on the radio or on TV. In Ireland it's the elephant in the room, it can only be discussed positively, anything else is heresy. This kind of mindset is honestly a throw back to the Soviet Union, where any societal issues that can be used against the ideology of the state, must be suppressed and never spoken of. Our masters have clearly learned nothing from the past, as that kind of mindset brought down the Soviet Union.

Or is it that they can't learn a skill here? Can't hold down a job? Can't make themselves useful to society despite their lack of skills/education? Give them a shot. And if they don't contribute, or are unwilling to contribute to Irish society, then they should be sent home.
Esho wrote: » I think it's more like the NGO attitude chimes with the cancel culture. So politicians are too scared to call out any issue that could be spun as "racist". Remember the Wexford TD who pointed out some facts about the problems asylum seekers are causing truckers? She was branded a racist by the mefia and twitterati. Irish politicians listen to their constitutents- well the ones who get re-elected do.
Sand wrote: » NGOs have direct access to TDs, ministers and civil servants. NGOs often run 'training courses' which TDs and their staff attend to be 'informed' on the issue. Constituents get no such access or representation. So a TD is always going to be far more influenced by the NGOs than by their constituents. I think its reasonable that the NGO industry/complex is considered a threat the democratic process in Ireland. Certainly they should receive no state funding and no access to politicians or civil servants.
jmreire wrote: » Just as in the Peter Casey case, where he got 330'000 votes, all on just one issue. In my opinion anyway, there is or will be the same "pool" of voiceless voters based on the Immigration issue. Just because they are not highly vocal, does not mean that they do not exist. Casey proved that. Any forward thinking politician would do well to see which way the immigration wind is blowing, and act accordingly.
