The D Hotel, Drogheda to house international protection applicants

I'd say that apartment is about to become even more affordable.

The new DP centre could just be rumour though?

There must be a point where local businesses start to lobby the govt and local councils for reversals of these decisions, or at least compensation from the state.

Don't worry, one of the lads will be along to burn it down soon.

I was thinking that myself. This could result in a massive bonfire in drogheda. Set by none other than the ole “far right”

Watched by individuals who ... believe that 100,000s+ illegals coming into a country of 5mil is sound? Country that has housing, healthcare and police recruitment crises? I think it would be easier to point out what Ireland has been doing right over the last 36 months.

Or who get paid 20 euros per hour to look at a screen?

I think its imminent, but probably wont get to that as too much pushback will be had starting tomorrow evening. Hopefully and thankfully.

I am yet to hear of a place in Ireland that has GPs who welcome new customers with open arms.

Unfortunately by looks of things our hotels are contracted away first, followed by school places and GPs. I've heard of a full hospital emergency department sitting there waiting for hours to be seen, only for a Ukrainian girl to walk in with high temperature, walk past the plebs and be seen straight away. I ve heard this from individual who was sitting in the room. Jaw dropped upon witnessing proceedings.

There will be no preparation.

You can't find or move doctor.

School places already difficult.

Centre of the town already a scum pit.

A town centre hotel in the largest town in the country will have much better security and more vested interest than a rural outpost.

It is highly unlikley to be burnt down and hopefully nobody tries, obviously.

I didnt say it was good for Drogheda. I said quite the opposite.

In relation to the arson, I pointed out its less likley to happen in a large town and i hope it doesnt.

Some absolute odd balls already hanging around the streets across from this hotel. I can't imagine the pubs in that part of town are too happy.

Jaysus. You’re like Facebook on legs!

😂

Leave Paddy McCabe alone,he an icon of the town!!!

I'd advise you to sit in your car tomorrow evening and Saturday and observe the area. I wouldn't advise living there tbh.

The block next door was gutted for 10 years after being burnt out in Nigeria v Lithuania culture clash. Homeless aid just around the corner n lot of drinking druggies along the river.

Throw 500 asylum seekers each side of the river into the mix now also. Having kids I'd live in a tent in a bog first!
