Ukrainian refugees in Ireland - Megathread

Funny that you only commented on the part that "it didn't say", on the one page you skimmed over. You didn't read about status s either. Which would answer your questions. So not only are you incapable of discussing, trying to deceive with nonsense and/or twisting the facts to suit, you now are quoting paragraphs about something that you aren't actually reading. Is this your first boards discussion or have you been getting away with this sort of thing for long?

It's yourself that you're smelling, and I'm not surprised it isn't passing. It's probably stuck to you.

If only I owned a hotel - I would pick the biggest number I could think of n tell these clowns to ring me back when they are prepared to pay it! I wouldn't be waiting long!

Garth brooks tickets still for sale, saying the lack of hotels in Dublin n sky high prices putting punters off

When asked how many tickets are left, a spokesperson for Aiken Promotions said there was a “handful” on sale ahead of the country superstar much-awaited performance here.

On Ticketmaster, it notes there is “limited availability” for his tickets, which are priced at around €88 including booking fees.

However, it is expected to completely sell-out, with the singer taking to the stage on September 9, 10, 11, 16 and 17.

Last Friday saw Aiken Promotions releasing a limited number of standing tickets now that production details for the stage set-up have been finalised.

A small number of tickets are also on sale privately on websites like Adverts.ie and DoneDeal with many of them being offered at face value.

Sounds horrific, even more bizarre the jealously towards them on here.

Tickets are still for sale because they printed more, it's in the article.

What are we talking quarter of a million people or more descending on Dublin? And you are someway surprised about lack of hotel rooms and profiteering?

How many articles from the past decade would you like that states this is not new?

Here was me thinking hotels were for tourists, business trips etc. When the government block books entire hotels for Ukrainians, the hotel down the road no longer has any competition n can charge accordingly. Who would have thunk it boggles? Literally no-one! It's a thing called supply n demand.

Quite simply in the aftermath of this I'll be doing research on hotels... not just rates and amenities but what guests they were housing, feeding and facilitating during this situation...

Try book to suit my needs of course but ... also rewarding business who backed irish people..

The needs of irish people to have rest, recreation for their wellbeing.

They can always get a job and pay their own way like the rest of us instead of begging for handouts. A novel idea, I know,

Kyiv is back to normal. Why is the taxpayer paying for them to stay in a hotel room? Why are we paying for their meals and board? They should be charged a nominal amount each week.

The party is over. Huge swathes of Ukraine are back to normal. The country is twice the size of Italy. Absolutely no need for them to be here clogging up accommodation and living off of Paddy. It it time for them all to think about going home. What will assist them with this decision, is the state cutting down on welfare and the handouts.

Why can't schools be used to house these people? There are dozens of community centres that could be given to refugees.

Everything possible should be done.

The government supported by migration supporters are all in favour of this.

Schools, empty buildings, army barracks . Everything should be given along with billions of euro to accommodate refugees.

Large areas in Dublin 4, Dublin 6 should be used to house these thousands of people in particular.
