What are your views on Multiculturalism in Ireland? - Threadbanned User List in OP

There's also nothing stopping people in DP going back home or trying their luck elsewhere if they don't like the conditions here. It's not a prison camp.

Also, if they are denied and again on appeal, they should be put on the next plane to wherever they came from not having the taxpayer fund them chancing their arm and feeding and keeping them indefinitely.

What I really don't understand is why the illegals are such high priority item on her list. Generally the government should focus on the hard times ahead and the justice minister maybe should focus on justice for the people that voted her pay her salary.

Your posts were misleading and lacked detail on the subject . I will open threads as I see fit !

‘’ You don’t need a law degree to be a Barrister ‘’

Doing the one year year degree course at Kings Inn is a law degree !

You could have explained it better .

Perhaps you're in the minority? I wouldn't imagine too many immigrants like yourself sharing your views but you seem to think you are in the majority. Just because there are others like you in this thread doesn't mean that is reflected in the real world. We saw the pathetic results that were seen when people leaning in that direction tried to get elected, people who would want immigrants like you out of the country if they had their way. Funny how you'd probably vote for people who would dump you out of the country if they had a chance. So you probably should be happy that Helen is elected.

Ah I do remember saying that but can't recall the context exactly. I think someone was using religion as some kind of argument for something, possibly against immigration. Ireland has a secular constitution and you can see the shift away from using religion to justify things. As we all know Savita Halappanaver was told in hospital that "Ireland is a Catholic country" when she wanted an abortion. One of the most shameful moments in our history. As for your questions yes I do feel that people following a man made religion devoutly are wrong and every country should be secular, down to every policy that is introduced. Obviously many people get indoctrinated into religions as children but as adults I think they should have the right and yes, the ability, to think critically about it. But things happen in peoples lives, losing loved ones for example, and religion is a good way to cope and I understand that. I do respect peoples right to do what they want to do and believe what they want to believe, as long as it's not infringing on other people.

Well I'm happy that you're here and I would hope more people like you would come and become a part of Ireland. Clearly you feel some Irish identity now in addition to your Eastern European identity and that is great! It's people like me who support you and embrace you in the country. However you choose to side with people who ultimately would dump you out of the country if they had their way which is what some of the people who have ran have publicly said they'd do. It makes me sad to see you do that. It's even been said on here when Eastern Europeans were brought up that they were ok "because they'll all go home eventually". You should stand with the people who want you here and are happy you're here. We are always going to want you here and I would say you're one of us. Hopefully we can get your support at some point in the future.

At what point should someone not be entitled to a medical card? If they have millions in savings should they still be entitled to a medical card?

"but my parents don't have millions in savings". You'll avoid the question I'm sure.
