Ukrainian refugees in Ireland - Megathread

What bloody questions!

This thread has run it's course if your post is the level of interaction which posters on the other side deem constructive

Shutting down the thread is probably what you'd like given there's some rational opposition to your agenda

Where am I posting from?

The links are to show you what/who are racist or Xenophobic in all of this, not your bullcrap quote of my post. I was not saying anything that isn't in mainstream media already, and been said time and time again, before the war. I only didn't link to any of it in that post as I didn't feel I needed to, nor was I bothered going looking for any links. I have left, at least, some links for you to follow and look it up yourself. The title 'most racist country in Europe' I am pretty sure came from a BBC panoram doc around 2012, prior to the Euros.

Anyone suggesting that we have taken in far more than our infrastructure allows for, does not make them xenophobic, it is merely pointing out more facts.

So to recap. You suggest closing down the thread or that the thread has 'run it's course', throw around the word xenophobia without actually mentioning who it is you were referring to, then when pushed, you mention it was me, and quote a post that was made long after you used the word. I repeatedly asked you for any proof (which you have still been unable to give) as to how I am xenophobic, after you claim your are doing Gods work by 'calling out xenophobia' on this thread, (which you weren't), and the post you quote is still not me being xenophobic, so I ask for more, and now it appears I am not posting from this country, nor is English my first language.

Are you going to back anything up or just constantly deflect with this bullsh*t? Or are you just completely blind to any issues that arise from taking in too many people from anywhere, we are now moving refugees from one country, to make room for more coming in, with the initial ones being moved to tents without toilets down in Clare. Or are you blind to that too. Yet also seemingly defending Ukraine with regard to it being well known as a racist country. You really do try to pick and choose which side to be outraged by. What you are accusing one person of on here, is literally what the people and bodies you are defending here have been practicing.

This was all over the news at the time . Ukraine were only looking after the whites and the rest were left.

the Ukrainians won’t like seeing that beds are full here with non whites but that’s just tough ****

That's gas. It's almost word for word(apart from the war bit) the same as a post about travellers that appeared on another thread!

I think the gestures of those good enough to pledge accomodation is being entirely conflated with Government prioritising and offering Modular, Temporary Homes to one Cohort (Skipping the Q, so to speak) over people in Emergency Accommodation and on housing lists.

Indeed Housing charities also at this disgraceful behaviour.

Let's be abundantly clear.

A private Citizen offering accommodation on the basis of a humanitarian gesture, wether it be a full house or rooms is entirely different to.....

A Government, with some obligations blatantly and in my view discriminating, allowing one cohort (wether they be Refugees or not) is disgraceful, particularly when many being discriminated against have been on waiting lists for years or in emergency Accommodation for years.

People will say, it's only a temporary measure to justify this, I say, Hogwash because I know, there's nothing temporary about it at all, no matter what spin is put on it.

There should be absolutely no discrimination and rather than government making an appalling situation worse, the solution is quite simple, put as much effort into those waiting for years, do the Virtue signalling nonsense if they wish, cap it and start addressing and reducing the crisis that's been in existence for years, its not rocket science and maybe, just maybe, government might actually get a little support, this continuing farce and chaos has led to social incohesion and people wonder why there's such unease, this aside from the utter incompetence and Shenanigans at play.

A Turd is a Turd even if polished. Some may not like some hard truths but they are glaring if only people opened their Eyes

7,000, yes 7,000 more Ukrainian refugees expected by end of August whilst Zelenskyy and his wife have time for a Vogue Magazine Shoot 🙄

I agree, but let's not forget, Government invited nearly 600 "Others" in on on top of the 43k Ukranian refugees, these are not illegal as government would like us to believe. There are currently and separately 4.5K fully processed in DP and have nowhere to go because of this farce.

Just to put this in context if we combine all those being currently accommodated in an emergency situation, a rough figure Currently is

45,000

I'm allowing for not all Ukrainian refugees in emergency Accommodation and I'm be conservative.

Just think, 45,000, and no room at the Inn and many more to come, Just Bonkers IMO
