    Roderic, the minister, who's still putting asylum seekers into tents.

    "We're seeing Russia escalate in the months ahead….." - McEntee

    Does McEntee know something no one else does?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,097 ✭✭✭Oíche Na Gaoithe Móire


    I've nothing against the GAA, played and support.

    But McEntee is there because she's a GAA family TD. They are worse than the hereditary family ones, at least they began out of political interest.

    The rates of pay and support given to Ukrainians at first were not broadly supported by the public.

    Roderic should've left his 'I've done 5 days with Terry Prone' badge on

    You need a Trump style politican in there calling out ROG

    That is part of it. The country is like many individuals within it, you could have someone working a lot of overtime whose spouse suggests easing up a bit, but the busy person says that there might not be half as much overtime next year.

    Dramatic anti immigration measures would not be warranted if things are going to cool down by themselves anyway.

    In general, nobody properly answered the question about the relationship with the number of houses and the number of immigrants. Either other immigrants have to be reduced, or the proportion of builders among immigrants has to increase, no politician seems to provide a clear answer.

    We could all do with a bit of 'James Brown'🤣🤣

    I am doing my best to listen to and consider all sides, but Jesus, I'm well fed up of McEntee and Roddy at this point. How many times does Helen say, "Let me be clear," followed up with some vague waffle?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 75,425 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    Firzmaurice gets slapped down for interrupting, Roderick is let away with it with everyone

    Katie Hannon is a disgrace, completely biased. Let's ROG interrupt without saying anything to him. Cuts down the opposition TDs straight away. RTE are shameful in their pro government stance.

    So…the discussion is going to be about work visa immigrants and Ukranian refugees - they're the only components of our immigration issue are they?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,213 ✭✭✭Peter Flynt


    ROG and McEntee are losing the Greens/FG a ton of votes with their arguments tonight. Everyone knows immigration of hardworking qualified people from abroad is a positive thing. What people don't want is unlimited immigration of wasters. . . . and neither ROG or McEntee can distinguish between the two.

    Is he beating them in or do they go in of their own accord?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,577 ✭✭✭Jeff2


    There is a video on twitter of RoG at the door where a woman asked him about the tweet he posted in 8 languages inviting people here and he denied it happened. Asked if his account was hacked he said no it wasn't.

    He is a lier and everyone know about the tweets

    Matt Carthy is a very fresh 47. Usually TDs eat a lot and age quickly!

    If you decide you can go back to Ukraine for 2 weeks holliers then you should be back to square one with regard to entitlements, the same as a newcomer.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,218 ✭✭✭Glebee


    I know they said the seating was open draw but it's funny that its government one side with opposition the other side.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,464 ✭✭✭✭hotmail.com


    Roderic accusing Sinn Fein of walking away from Ukraine.

    A Ukrainian woman got kicked out of her accommodation here because she visited her sick husband in Ukraine.

    This government and the people have walked away from Ukraine a long time ago.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,097 ✭✭✭Oíche Na Gaoithe Móire


    Walking away from the Ukraine as if it was the greatest crime ever.. What da fuk would the Ukraine do for us..

    I never remember any country that was invaded getting such red carpet treatment.

    County Councils have Water, Roads, Environment etc departments and now a Ukrainian one!

    Will Coolock have a representative 🤔

    "SF want to walk away from Ukraine" - ROG

    Good. That's what the Irish govt should be doing. We are not members of NATO and it is not our responsibility to do as the EU/US tell us to do.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,464 ✭✭✭✭hotmail.com


    But he's a do gooder. Not a great do gooder is he.



  • Posts: 7,681 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    He made a fair point. Said he wouldn't have come if he had known the issue of accommodation.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,090 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    People all over the world heard of your village in Tipp.

    Go away to fuk.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,106 ✭✭✭✭Strazdas


    Putin has made it clear (via his propagandists) he would love to invade Poland, the Baltics, Finland, Moldova, Georgia, Kazakhstan as well. The idea that this is a small territorial dispute about parts of eastern Ukraine is a complete fallacy.



  • Posts: 7,681 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Have you a link?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,505 ✭✭✭run_Forrest_run


    exactly, he has a valid point. I work with lads from India, and they say the same: accommodation is a nightmare.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 672 ✭✭✭Not made with hands


    They thought she was talking about the shopping centre I'd say.
