Amnesty scheme for undocumented migrants in Ireland

I'm expressing my opinion. I will continue to express it whether you like it or not.

Except the "haves" pay the least

I'm questioning your shoddy logic, and to even answer the question is to enter a midfield, because your "racist" and normal peoples usage of the term is very different.

Normal persons interpretation: I don't blacks, I don't like Jews= racist

Yours: We should reduce mass immigration because of cultural cohesion, cost of living, rise in crime= racist

My initial post made no judgment on the numbers, I've spoken many times before that it's somewhat hard to gauge, which is why it's best not to engage with you in most instances, as you rarely answer questions, while asking many questions of others about things that have never been said.

Exactly, don't do it. And even post Brexit, Britain cannot control it's borders, with criminals profiting from the sorry tale. It's bad news all round.

With modernization and new tech you'd honestly wonder if it was possible for some sort of system without politicians, or at least a great reduction in their numbers, where the people can vote on every issue via their phone or something. I know we might be years away from that yet, but surely it's possible?

They could, but the "far right fascist" Tories simply don't do anything about it. They've been absolutely terrible on immigration.

It's amazing how inept they are considering how easy they have it. They literally had to do one thing to appease their voters, and they didn't do anything but speak about it, so he deserves everything he gets. I've never liked him anyway, so I'll not be sad to see him go, but whoever replaces him won't be much better. It's much like Ireland, the same ****, but different politicians.

We are, and my Aunt over there said to me 15 years ago….it’s all coming to you too. Wasn’t wrong. A lifelong labour supporter, a liberal but she saw the unwillingness her government had to clamp down on illegal immigration.

The key weakness of the amnesty proposal is that it will encourage further illegal immigration. Rather than solve the problems it will simply transfer them to a successor group of illegals. This is the very clear lesson of various amnesty schemes elsewhere in the world… but we are not heeding history…or some of us are not.

People could submit the issues that matter to them, if it hits a certain target, it could move forward. The debate element is weak, because there hardly is any in Irish parliament as is, not real debate anyway, this whole policy supports that position. New methods could be created to get around those things. The bit about the constitution makes no sense either, as I said reset, a reset would obviously result in a new constitution. Anyway, I wasn't writing an academic essay on it man, I was just throwing out an idea, obviously it would need far more thought.

I'm finding it hard to believe this all came from McEntee herself, it smells of someone like Varadkar being behind it. She is a light weight, like Mary Coughlan before her & the incompetent Mary Harney.

First the MUP & now this, hare brained just isn't in it.
