Immigration and Ireland - MEGATHREAD *Mod Note Added 14/08/25*

The ever trusty Newscorp and its subsidiary Sky news Australia, now coming as a link dump to the thread cause the mods gave up.

🤣

More conspiracy talking points from the company that in a USA court stated its news wasn't news but entertainment.

I’m not blaming you, I’m just amused that you think that fixating on an incredibly minor error in quotation somehow invalidates what the news story is (or, more amusing, that you’re fooling anybody into believing that it proves the story is untrue or a conspiracy)

What would you like to see from the Gardaí in policing this kind of thing?
You were saying how ineffective they were and how that was the real story - cmon I’ll actually take you at face value, what measures do you think would make the Gardaí more effective in this?

What’s the conspiracy?
Did the NGO criticise the Garda methods or not?

That’s over 200 people a month, not bad.
Not sure about you but I’m pretty glad they stopped a suspected rapist entering the country illegally? Seems a very productive use of Garda time in fact.

How do you think they should be going about things then?

Is this even an issue you want to see policed? Your posts suggest it’s a bit of a non issue that they shouldn’t be bothering with.

Derail the thread about immigration to Ireland that has videos of Australian fox news talking about the UK?

Good one!

It’s a shame because I actually would like to have a discussion and hear the thoughts from the other side - but I’ve asked twice now about what he would like to see from the Gardaí to police this and nothing. Stopping a rape suspect seems like a good use of police time but apparently not where Robert is concerned.

Ask him anything outside engagement with his sneering and pedantry and suddenly he forgets about you

My problem is posters lying.

Making up a quote because it suits your agenda is a form of lying.

Should we not try to discuss this issue honestly at that minimum?

This particular line of attack is ridiculous.

The article was not presented because of the unspecified sexual assault.

Not one single poster has posted anything compassionate about the unspecified victim or victims but you are attacking me over a severe lack of compassion.

Ridiculous.

Attacking the poster and hypocritical nonsense.

Where is your compassion?

Why are the powers that be hiring an Indian national with NO connections to Letterkenny be peace commissioner and carry out 'legal functions' ? The Peace Commissioner used to be for local men, and known respected men, community men.

Mod Edit: Warned for breach of site rules

You made up a quote to suit your agenda. Ridiculous stuff that you can't accept it and move on.

Stephen please go and read the article because you haven't a clue.

Your made up a quote based on the authors opinion not based on the quote from the NGO representative.

To make it easier I have copied the relevant parts from the article

Below highlighted in bold is the authors opinion.

Below highlighted in italics is the quote from the NGO.

Really basic English comprehension stuff.

I mean the article even highlights the actual quote in quotation marks.

UTV understands that includes the group known as The Firm.

Immigration numbers in Northern Ireland are rising, but remain low leading some to questions whether border checks are racial profiling or an essential tool in the fight against illegal immigration.

Human Rights groups do not believe this is the right way to deal with the issue.

Daniel Holder from the Committee on the Administration of Justice said: "What police services need to be focusing on, of course, is crime and offending on the basis of reasonable suspicion and intelligence, not on what can be, sometimes just essentially routine immigration controls on a, on a land border that is effectively open. "

Why would I, I don't support either of them.

But I hate the left a lot more and never want to see them getting a say on immigration again.

As for O Gorman he should never be let forget he destroyed this country with his stupid tweets inviting the third world over here for a free house.

And with that white paper and their not for turning ideological beliefs - the Green Party who ‘everyone’ voted for made a lot of rich people in this country very very rich. Told communities they had no veto. Never ending entertainment on here how the left defend at all costs ogormans performance.
