Could Fine Gael be pushed to the right?

That's complete whataboutery.

What has happened in Drogheda is a crime and just be treated as such. Vulnerable people being attacked in a racially motivated manner is a crime. It's reprehensible.

What's also reprehensible is the State's failure to deport an illegal immigrant who went on the sexually assault a minor.

Both are wrong, we don't have to apply exclusivity to either attack. Both can be condemned.

The thread is about FG moving more to the political right. Doing so with respect to illegal immigration would help mitigate the risks of both attacks mentioned above IMO.

It's not whataboutery.

IPAS Centres are the targets of these protests and chants of 'get them out' etc.

This is government policy. Nobody in the government lives in those centres.

What are people aiming to achieve by protesting outside the centres?

The government piss themselves laughing at people who do this, because those arseholes are targetting other people instead of the people who actually make the decisions in this country.

Now, today, we have a situation where children were left for dead, only for the work of the emergency services to save them.

For all the talk we have of how immigrants impact society etc, it's Irish people who are responsible for the burning of buildings and the same people who are whipping up fear about immigrants have f*ck all to say when this happens.

Even looking around at their social media profiles today - not a dickiebird from any of them. Just like they have nothing to say when victims of abuse at the hands of Irish men call out their racial hatred.

Sophie Brady, who was abused by her cousin since she was 7, called this out. She said there was f*ck-all protests against her abusers and what was the response? People gave her abuse. No empathy. These c*nts don't give a flying fiddlers about women and children. They only care when it's a foreigner they can take aim at.

Wake up.
