Ukrainian refugees in Ireland - Megathread

Mossad? Jaysus chill out.

Bully boy tactics, plain and simple, Darragh O Briens behaviour was a disgrace, along with Paul Mc Cauliffes and its now abundantly clear government will throw the Racist and anti refugee grenade in, the minute an elected representative not in government dares to question this shambles and farce.

Good read. Maybe it was posted already?

Minister for Housing responds:

Worth looking at the debate https://www.kildarestreet.com/debates/?id=2022-06-22a.71

there's no way in hell that WEF young global leader Leo is gonna do a runner and pass up his chance to grab power again in this country in December.

It comes at a frightening time having seen what his fellow WEF puppet Trudeau has turned Canada into in recent months

And not to forget the other WEF global leader in the Southern hemisphere making a disaster out of New Zealand

The Minister actually had no right according to Dail rules to ask her anything, he was obliged to take questions, do his job and answer questions posed to him. Horrid individual.

Mattie for Taoiseach!

Latest Poll out and it's Grim for FFGG

Independents doing quite nicely 😏

I'm not sure why but every time I watch Darragh O' Brien speak I think of Napoleon from Orwells's Animal Farm

Remember Animal farm well 😂

The only thing stopping this being fast tracked (open to correction) is I believe the period of residency covered by the bizzare EU directive can not be used in terms of a citizenship application but like everything, I'd not be surprised if a way was found to fast track citizenship which would make a mockery out of the process.

I wouldn't call it a debate, mature grown-up debates on any subject are not something we have in this Republic, Verboten innit

No they are not, the entire Details of the article and all TDs named are what is important.

You seem not to understand that his absence may have something to do with the fact he's actually tending to his constituents and their needs. Where for example has Alan Kelly been, since he was dropped kicked 🤔

I'd also wager Hannon as actually asked more questions in the Dail than main party or independent TD'S. He was by far one of the most inquisitive TD'S in the Dail/Convention Centre throughout the pandemic.

Why you even linked this article is a mystery, obviously a diversion tatic that won't work.

Where you happy with tonights Poll 🤔, I was 😏

Your really clutching at straws now to deflect from the topic

A TD'S job is to represent their constituents (Clearly many forgetting that basic principal)

To define the Dail as a place of work for elected representatives a little disingenuous, they have both an office in government buildings and in their constituency. The only people directly employed in the Dail are staff employed their to help run and manage it, I believe employed by the OPW.

Why your harping on about this is bewildering, I get you've little in response to the ongoing farce the Thread Topic is dealing with but this nonsense your using to deflect is just being silly.

As for what councilors do, you know full well they deal specifically with local authority matters and may assist members of the public with specific issues relating to local authority issue's that effect them, most notably housing. Councillors in the over all scheme of things politically and in particular national issues are as useful as using a bucket to hold steam.

You also clearly never heard the expression, "All politics is Local" I'm originally from Dublin and perhaps its different their but I can tell you categorically, this expression is actually very true when it comes to rural politics.
