Likely use it for a migrant holding centre when it's finished.
Right, students can be sacrificed, that is, that's a sacrifice you lot are willing to allow them to make.
IMHO the students, the future of this country, should never be sacrificed, and definitely not for other countries, but that's just my ignorant racist view, or something. You people are unreal.
There's approx 160,000 hotel rooms in the state, increase the number being used, still leaves loads of capacity
So let me get this right. You think that student accommodation should be used from now on as migrant centres for the foreseeable future.
Who said anything about migrant centers? I'm talking about accommodation.
There's also the pledges which have been very slow in being allocated. A further drive to get more offers would likely see additional capacity added there too.
Lastly, additional accommodation is being built every day in the form of houses and apartments. CPO/lease/rent whatever is needed for the interim
Sure there are capacity issues and bottlenecks, but that is to be expected with the volume, I would be stunned if there weren't issues, but it'll get sorted.
Press release to day. It is intended that a Garda station will be built in RosslareHbr. It should have been started the day brexit was voted in. Verona Murphy was pilloried when she called it as it is. Being head of the IHA she knew the fears of hauliers. The damage to trucks. The spoiled cargos that had to be destroyed for health and safety reasons as it had been defecated and urinated on in the back of trucks. FG wokes turfed her out for having the gall to call it out.
Where are these same places. Please be more specific. Are they not in tents because we have ran out of these places.
Nobody seems to have an answer to this so Don't be afraid to admit that there are no more places
Just goes to show how short sighted and reactionary this shower are… so many of us foresaw this coming ffs, you didn’t need a crystal ball.
Same places we've been putting them already, just expand it further
In addition student accommodation can be used for a few years for this purpose, students can simply study from home as per covid lockdowns, no biggie. They may not like it, missing out on piss-ups, but priorities
That has nothing whatsoever to do with your original statement
We shouldn't of taken in so many that we had to resort to tents imo.
Now.your turn.
Where are we going to put these people in these tents. And mind we still have migrants landing every day and 1500 will also be looking for accommodation when the college campus accommodation is needed for students.
The Department of Foreign Affairs chartered flights to repatriate hundreds of Nigerian nationals as COVID emerged. This was well publicised at the time, as was the repatriation of Afghan nationals visiting Afghanistan as the Taliban arrived in Kabul.
How long would you like to see people staying in tents yourself?
Listening to him in the news spouting off about these tents must be for a short stay only.
I have yet to hear any of these idiots state where this accommodation is going to come from.
Total waffle.
The refugees spokesperson, a Brit.
The Anglo question is real.
The leader welcomes the new visa restrictions.
Sinn fein says that the government should of been better prepared and needs better planning.
The refugee spokesperson say it's an unwelcome development.
OGorman says the tents won't be along stay for refugees and expects them to be in accommodation within a week.
What a load of bo**ocks.
Does anyone really believe these crowd.
That's how climate change deniers frame their narrative. There's always been change in climate, this time is no different. Only it is.
Same goes for this multiculturalism fetish/faith. Yes societies have indeed undergone change and have been in flux, but like climate change in the past these changes were almost always gradual and cultural differences were not nearly so great. Where and when they weren't gradual and cultural differences were wider they were always on the back of conflict, invasion and colonisation. The climate change equivalent of a super massive volcano going off. And in these cases the native populations always suffered*.
Ireland has gone from near zero inward migration 30 years ago to one in five of the current population not Irish born today. That's a fantastically rapid change near unprecedented even in Western European multicultural nations.
*Now on the back of that we could go the What have the Roman's ever done for us argument. An amusing gag with some truth to it, but the wider truth was those living in occupied Israel were utterly screwed over and cast to the four winds in the aftermath.
That could mean virtually anything
The changes can be guided and the flux can be stemmed. We need to change for the better, not worse, and for that we need to be very careful about the contents of that flux. And we need to watch the flux level as currently its causing a severe overflow.
Society is continually undergoing change and is always in flux
When you analyse it dispassionately, such is the infinite number of people in the world who's situation is far worse than what the most impoverished in Ireland endure , taking in even half a million will only put a tiny dent in the hardship of the world's population in dire need, the only goal of taking in these people is a sort of near exercise in secular holiness.
Is this venture in generosity towards strangers and whatever feeling of decency it illicits worth it for the real risk it brings to a fracturing of social cohesion through increased pressure on the native population?
Keep people fooled into thinking something will be done to address the problem with migrants.
But the true reality is our leaders now take a 6 week break so it will be a free for All for migrants for the next 2 months before any change would be enforced. Even then I wouldn't expect anything to happen.
As I said before until some party or leaders have the balls to really call out whats happening to the country at the moment nothing will change.
Agree, this is window dressing. Will make zero difference.
Bolting the stable door after the horse has bolted would be a great motto for mcentee and this current government.
Anyhow I have no faith in our government to be capable of implementing any kind of restrictions or proper controls to stop illegal migrants entering the country.
RTE said it is a temporary suspension. But RTE also reported that France took this policy in 2003 and the UK in 1986. Did these countries do it permanently or temporarily? https://www.rte.ie/news/2022/0718/1310948-immigration-visas-cabinet/
What is this based on?
I'm sure I have read about people flying back to Nigeria for example but googles algorithm makes it difficult to find again.
Going to ask for some data or report otherwise the following statement is just as true as yours: Visits immediately after receipt of asylum are incredibly rare
Civil servants in the Departments of Justice, Foreign Affairs and Social Protection will be able to confirm the absurd extent to which this is true. Visits immediately after receipt of asylum are incredibly common and frequently result in issues of one form or another for the above mentioned Departments.
This is a sensible decision from the government, and one that should have been made long ago. It was long in the gift of successive governments to control this lever, it was one of the many reasons that made the integrity of our asylum system a contradictory mess - but it took a crisis to do it.
Great news. The penny has finally dropped. Public anger and concern were definitely growing. Has anyone asked Roderick if instead Irish people can have that own door accommodation that he offered to all around the world.
"However, where there is evidence that there may be abuse of such systems" Helen McEntee 2022
It was an admission that they got it so wrong to allow so many here.
Like Ellie Kisyombe originally from Malawi, a former Social Democrat candidate (LE19) lied in her Irish asylum application. She first secured a student visa in Ireland, before traveling to the UK and claiming asylum there. When that failed, she came back to Ireland and as expected in Ireland, she was granted leave to remain. Just recently Kisyombe was charged with assaulting a female worker at a Baleskin DP reception center in 2019. Get this...The day before her hearing, Kisyombe literally just returned from a five-week holiday in Malawi, the country which she claims to have fled as a refugee under threat of state persecution. This was her second holiday to Malawi since the Dept of Justice granted her Leave To Remain
There are far to many example's from those who have managed to get into trouble with the law. I don't think God would want to know the many many others who are in the state
