Unbelievable number of Indians coming here. Is there no limit?

    The only unbelievable thing is your willingness to demonstrate your complete lack of knowledge on the topic, although actually it probably is not as you are just trying to get your jollies. Your statistics are a complete fabrication, had you spend any time at all looking at the actual statistics you would at least have avoided some of the bloopers in your trolling nonsense.

    Now take your racist trolling nonsense and go peddle it soon where else.

    Yes - anecdotally from work I know that if it's a new estate where there's also going to be social housing, they find other Indians buying in the same estate , band together and get houses as neighbours. So a road might be 90% Indians. This way they believe they rule out antisocial behaviour. It's actually a reasonable strategy. I'm not saying I agree or disagree BTW.

    I work with a number of Indians, all qualified and competent.

    We have a serious amount of chancers coming to this country seeking asylum with nothing to offer the country, that is not a category any of the Indians I've encountered fall into.

    I'm as concerned about bogus asylum seekers as anyone else, but anyone who comes here legally to work has an entitlement to do so and if you want a group of people who integrate well in this country and cause no trouble whatsoever look no further than Indians, no religious extremist baggage, nice friendly people, good eggs in general.

    Glazers Out!

    The thing is I know some indians. The readily admit that you buy your degree in India. Take from that what you will.

    Yep, you have no issues with their brownness at all, absolutely no racial stereotyping going on in these posts.

    I interviewed an Indian guy once remotely. Very impressive. We had a 2nd interview in the office and a different guy turned up. Priceless. The 2nd guy was the actual guy that was named on the CV. He hadn't a clue when asked the same basic questions.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?

    The bastards! Imagine them copying what every other nationality does when they are in a foreign country.

    You certainly wouldn't catch the Irish at this craic in the US for the last 60 years or so, no siree!

    I fully support legal migration but these figures are pretty high. It's probably a bit of not enough skilled Irish workers and wages. There's no doubt companies will priorities wages and if they there's an Irish worker or Indian with the same C.V they'll hire the international worker because of the lower wages

    Brazil as number 2 surprises me, what industry are these workers going to?

    Meat plants? Deliveroo?

    Our flags are almost identical so it will be an easy transfer of power if one of them ever becomes Taoiseach and leader of our little island. We'd barely even know that we've been colonised, very clever.

    Well no, not really. The relative mentioned is on good money and is not in any sort of management position.

    Greebo, you're my older brother and I love you, but don't ever take sides with anyone against the family again. Ever.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,045 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Ah yes I forgot about those unskilled jobs.

    I presume most of these Brazilians are on a student visa which I presume a high percentage are abusing this especially when it comes to Deliveroo.

    I've hired two Brazilians and one Indian in the past year for Site Reliability Engineering positions. They'd all be earning in excess of €85-90,000 before bonuses. One Irish person applied from the twenty odd applicants we had.

    -The Indian girl is really good although a touch emotional - I've always found Indian women to be a lot more focussed than their male counterparts but that is a bit of a generalisation
    -The two Brazilians are unreal. One of them was a maths professor in Brazil at one stage. I feel like an idiot talking to both of them technically and I've been in the industry for 25 years

    Also had to check the date of this thread. I remember outsourcing to India starting around 2005 and we all thought we'd be screwed because of the wage differential. Simple fact is the pool of talent coming from Irish Universities is nowhere near enough in numbers to fill vacancies here.

    The government have chosen this as part of their economic model and I can't see that changing.

    FFFGG want it this way. Indians are better for our globalist neo liberal system.

    The Government and media also love to misdirect blame on Asylum seekers meanwhile they open the floodgates to legal migration via some of the loosest Visa rules in the entire world. Just like the UK.

    We are also now a bigger place for EU migration since Brexit.
