Ukrainian refugees in Ireland - Megathread

Edit

You brought upon yourself in some sort of twisted way to try and lay some sort of blame on the person who reported that two Refugees who are sometimes getting some cash payments for a maximum two days a week work, and not every week, that the encouragement of black market employment or whatever you called it, lay with her.

That is horsecrap. The blame is heavily with the people who are promoting the €200+ payments per week for sitting on their ass and getting free accommodation and meals. Even attempting to compare that to two semi part time (if you could even call them that) 'workers' is demented.

Why would any of them want to seek out over the counter employment, when it could cost them. Look at the sucker employer, paying taxes for xx amount of years only to see them squandered on these very same refugees coming here, that you say she should report. She's just skipping the fecking middle man.

The employer probably shouldn't even hire them, just throw money at them when they walk up, and kick any homeless people when they see them. Learn from those leading.

Laying it on thick and hard over such trivial nonsense you should be ashamed of yourself. Any nonsense stories about soldiers living in a sitting room for 30 odd years until they could afford to buy a house while eating out of a dog bowl? Surely you could pull one out that may be apt here?

Lol.. Not at all. giving it back. All the nonsense on one person because she stated what was happening where she works, a scenario that was created by neither her employer or herself, yet those that seem to think those in charge can do no wrong and every move is the right move, decided to keep pressing. Absolute horsecrap. Trying to project some sort of blame on somebody because she hasn't reported the grand tax fraud of 2022 which amounts to roughly €40 possibly. When we all know the real reason that she is in that predicament to begin.

Usually Maryanne has some sort of elaborate story that suits it.

no

What did you mean when you posted "I'm ouuta here" ?

Curious Question 🤔

I suppose so many ways to head to the hills 🤔

*skedaddle

* Depart / Retreat

* Leg it / Make a Run for it

*Take flight / Hasty retreat

* Vamoose

* au revoir

Would you have preferred me to say G**D N***T

Fascinating the interest in how I sign off 🤔😏

There are at least 3 working down here for cash into their hands one guy and two ladies. All three would be part time summer jobs. They would not be working more than three days like.

Reporting Employers is one thing, Reporting Employees being paid Cash is another thing, but Both intertwined, But ultimately its the Employers who'll be Sanctioned and to a far lesser extent employee"s. This has being going on for years, especially in hospitality.

The harsh reality is, no agency, Revenue, DSP will give this phenomenon the slightest glance, in the current climate, but that will change quite soon, now reviews will commence . They know full well what's going on and are perhaps minded not to rock the boat, so to speak, just yet.

The black market has been Thriving with Gusto since the pandemic, the amount of "Home service Businesses" on the go, is astonishing, I'd doubt there's not a single person on this thread who doesn't know of a Hair, Nail, Beauty, Cleaning home service business and on a cash only basis in their community or that they are aware of. Infact I've one hairdresser near me, who gave up working full time in hairdressing and she's never been as busy working "Privately"

Whilst I certainly don't condone this black economy, to a certain extent I understand it.

In the context of Ukrainian refugees, yes its obvious they maintain full benifits, some have practically no outgoings including, food and board and it is reprehensible to see abuses given the extraordinary generousity shown, but to criticise those who highlight this , is Bizzare, if the criticism was objective, fair enough, but its not, its essentially trying to deflect and ironically in a strange way acts to support this carry on.

IMHO 😉

This is where the inequality is arising , people are hungry and queueing at food banks because they cant make ends meet . While refugees get full benefits and three meals a day and no bills to pay our own are hungry and cant feed the kids .

I'll await your locating were I've actually said anything about encouraging cash to employees 🤔

I'm simply pointing out some obvious facts.

I wish you luck in reporting any Ukranian Refugee in receipt of cash payments or indeed rouge employers.

I don't deflect, as you well know.

I remember very early on in this debacle when Virtue signalling was. at its peak, quite a kerfuffle over Ukrainian Guests at a Bray hotel not being permitted access to leisure facilities at the hotel free,

Outrage on Joe Duffy's Liveline turned into hilarity when he soon discovered, Furious members paying Hundreds of euros per year to use such facilities were livid anyone, regardless of who they are were permitted access to leisure facilities free and taking up allotted access times, many cancelling their subscriptions.

It would seem, shockingly that despite Free accomodation and food, the. Ukrainian guests felt aggrieved that the package didnt include unlimited free access to swimming pool and leisure facilities and were horrified the beastly hotel owners decided to charge €5 for access.

Story went tits up on Joe Duffy and it was never mentioned again.
