Time for a zero refugee policy? - *Read OP for mod warnings - updated 11/5/24*

People aren’t really interested in those biased studies or research. Would be far more illuminating to see figures from the department of social protection on how many have remained on the live register and for how long

Yeah good luck with that.

I'm sure the airlines will be happy to facilitate this approach and the countries where the flights originate, or where we believe the reject asylum seekers are actually from, will have no issues either.

The Esri are biased now?

I guess we'll have to add them to the list so.

Maybe someday one of guys will actually explain how all this is supposed to work between O'Gorman's tweets, the MSM, the hotel owners, the NGOs, the ESRI, the people-traffickers, the lefties, the UN etc, etc.

At the moment it's looking more than a little conspiratorial.

I don't know why you seem to think it appropriate to bring my living situation into the discussion? I think it should be pretty clear it's not going to make any difference to the situation.

As for Australia, yes you would be sent back. You would also be subject to a lengthy pre clearance process before you boarded the flight. Which makes it very unlikely anybody will attempt to claim asylum on landing.

Some kind of pre-clearance system is being introduced as part of the migration pact, but considering how many of our arrivals come via sea or over the border from NI, I wouldn't expect it to make much of a difference in Europe or Ireland.

Are you also challenging the ESRI findings on IPAs joining the workforce?

”As for Australia, yes you would be sent back. You would also be subject to a lengthy pre clearance process before you boarded the flight. Which makes it very unlikely anybody will attempt to claim asylum on landing.”

You’re almost getting it. If measures are introduced it will surely cut down on claims. But we’re now known as a soft touch and nothing will happen if people show up with no ID. There’s a good reason why people don’t destroy their passports on flights to Australia

Not surprising.

Holy s**t this goes deeper than I first thought.

Researchers with a background in the area they research. What will they think of next?

I think I'm done posting for now.

I'm off to spend the weekend having BBQs. I hear they work so well in Australia…

Available data show that most enter low skilled jobs, which are characterised by lower wages and poorer working conditions. The most common reported job titles were general operative (for example, in a warehouse), healthcare assistant, kitchen porter and cleaner.

Those people are net losses as the tax they pay does not make up for the money spent on them.

Six one running with a news story of 2 Indians being attacked by teenagers, as sure as eggs are eggs if 2 Indians committed a crime they would not be named as '2 Indians' indeed a crime committed by foreign nationals or asylum seekers does not make tv headline news…..the agenda is so laughably see through

Is this what some here are cheerleading for ? the fking state of it none of this lot will ever integrate or contribute to a society much further than emptying your bins down the road

Think thats an old video, that lad is renowned for sharing old content on X, but the point still stands. Its not a good situation and only going to get worse.

One article about deportations

With a moratorium in place due to the pandemic, there were just 33 deportation orders signed and 38 carried out in 2021.

By 2022, that rose to 528 signed and 118 removals, while in the first 10 months of last year, there were 713 orders signed off and 57 deportations carried out.

And a study on non Irish citizens returning to their country of origin through deportation or otherwise.

The only article I have seen on the likely status of asylum seekers is the independent one I posted. Despite your earlier claims against a poster to which I replied, you present nothing to show the independent article is false but seem to be attempting misdirection.

Fwiw, as I have said previously, one of my best friends is a refugee. I am also very close to an adult person who is the child of refugees. I don't know the best solution but looking at the current situation, I see obvious challenges.

Also, not everyone is a software engineer and it seems not everyone can save the stupendous amounts of money needed to buy a house. Are we to say that only those who are unemployed or very poor and only those who are very rich should be housed? Should be allowed to have a family?

The current situation has challenges but denying the facts and gaslighting those who highlight the issues makes the situation worse in my opinion.

A fair few countries are looking to moderate immigration.
