Ireland's Refugee Policy cont. Please read OP before posting

Its strange that they've jumped so quickly to shut down Syrians claiming asylum, yet there's people coming in from far safer countries.

That's the attitude that has us in the mess we are in. Yes, they are human beings, and human beings have flaws. One of them is selfishness, and to take advantage of people's good nature. We are being inundated with scammers who are taking advantage our caring and docile nature.

The best way to deal with this problem, is it make it known that refugee status is not guaranteed, and they won't be free to roam the cities and the country the minute they arrive in the country.

We are being taken for mugs and the dentention centres and deportations is the only way out of this. Saying 'It won't work' is defeatist and does nothing to address the issue.

We are obviously on polar opposites of the discussion and unlikey to meet in the middle . Dentention centres and deportations are the the answer to this, not rocking up to border control and being waved through. 1,000s of unknown men and currently roaming around the country, free to leave ipas centres at their leisure. Our lax laws are being taken advantage of, people abusing the asylum system to bypass the work visa system.

Drove passed the naas tented village yesterday off the newbridge road, it's bleedin massive

Sure their passport got "lost" they probably thought they were Syrian at one point

Pointed out the casual.misinformation by that publication. The rest refers to the poster's reference to hatred of that party by other politicals / councillors , which I said was overstatng it( hyperbole) they just don't want anything to do with them

It's quite clear from my post what was meant .

Already being discussed apparently that it is under review as to whether it is a safe country as yet or not .

I don't think those that are already here will be " sent back " and many will want to ensure it is safe before returning

Let's face it Syrians ARE genuine refugees fleeing tyranny and war , which most people would not argue with.

There are more groups one would have thought that would be in line for deportation / revoking of refugee status , without targeting genuine refugees the minute their country hits the news , but that is what is happening here .

The dust needs to settle first before people can return home .

Where people are worked to death, starved or gassed, and only a small minority live from one year to the next? You think this is what is being proposed?

It's actually insulting to victims of the Holocaust, not to mention the posters here who have not mentioned anything even comparable to concentration camps, and I can't believe those words were used

The current system allowed a triple murderer from Zimbabwe fly in and walk the streets.

God knows how many others are using our system to flee countries over committing crimes.

If a stranger knocked on your door in the middle of the night would you say ah sure look sleep on the chair it's cold out.

In all walks of life you use common sense to reduce risk.

Putting people in a detention centre with a bed and food is a far more sensible approach while finding out who they are.

They are seeking refuge, they should be delighted with food and a roof over their head while their claim is decided.

How that somehow is comparable to Jews being starved,tortured and murdered in concentration camps is something I can't get my head around, but that's where we are.

The current system allowed a triple murderer from Zimbabwe fly in and walk the streets.

Alleged double murderer, who was arrested and deported.

You do know all sorts of criminals fly into Ireland and out all the time perfectly legally?

We have mass murderers "walk the streets" because we had conflict on this island for decades. We even elected some.

Do you self fear monger over those or is it just the brown ones you are terrified of?
