Effects on property prices in Coolock

Look up that again and scroll down and you will see price reductions for Coolock for new builds

They were going to but 800-1000 people in that one building!! I don't think so.

Not the point of the thread either way. Public attention to the area and how rough it is and off putting for 20% of the population of Dublin directly. It will also keep the area as insular and it won't gentrify

I am quoting the CSO and you are quoting hearsay. I know how big the building is and you can look too and that figure is impossible. You are drinking the coolaid

Quite clearly racist and you are propagating obvious lies so taking part. There was local engagement about the development. If you think this is a genuine protest then you are really misguided as this is opportunists just causing trouble. As said they do this at Halloween too.

I said no foreign national would want to live in Coolock and pointed out that is 20% of Dublin population straight away thus reducing demand for property. That means the property price is going to be effected. Others dismiss this as doing anything to prices in the area.

You have to be kidding.I do talk to people I work with who are foreign nationals. The ask about areas they are looking at. Pretty standard expectation is to feel safe where you plan to buy. You think it is a huge leap to assume these people will be fine with an area where far right protestors joined forces with the locals to attack a building? You are playing silly buggers

The far right groups are certainly racists. They are the people using the figure 800-1000 which you are repeating thus aligning yourself with them what is obviously not a "genuine" concern. Don't lie down with dogs if you don't want fleas. It is not name calling it is reality. I am not calling you a racist or all the people there as many just want to cause trouble.

Never wanted this discussion just wanted to ask about the effect on property in the area. You seem to think it has no effect and it nothing to be concerned about. So yes the discussion is over

LOL

This isn't going on in my mind but in public view and certainly right wing not working class

"including claiming the government wanted to pump “Illegal male
migrants” into poor communities (asylum seekers have the right to stay
in Ireland while their cases are processed).

“It’s a Jewish plan!” one man with a loudspeaker was recorded saying.

“They’re going to tell you how many calories you can eat. And they’re going to text you what you can eat.

He added that it “has nothing to do with immigration, nothing to do with anything, it’s to do with White destruction”."

Absolute nonsense, I grew up with people from Coolock and we are still friends. They are professionals with degrees and masters. Others I know are in prison on and off with others long term unemployed. There are people inbetween too. I do feel sorry for them as they were never encouraged at home by their family and that was the deciding factor not the area they came from. They had the same opportunities in education and went to same schools as me and others in the local area
