Immigration and Ireland - MEGATHREAD *Mod Note Added 02/09/25*

A different opinion is usually what makes people roll out the classic line "that's racist or are you homophobic"

Ken O Flynn and Carol Nolan are at the top of their game when it comes to highlighting issues associated with immigration.

It's hilarious to see the screeching and wailing from Labour and the Soc Dems whenever Carol and Ken use their speaking time to talk about immigration.

They could do with asking Minister O’Callaghan about the need for landlords and letting agents to confirm a non-EU individual is legally entitled to be in the state before they can rent a property. It’s standard in many EU countries and the UK but there doesn’t seem to be any obligation here on a landlord to check a visa or residence status before giving a lease.

Never heard of him

What’s it got to do with immigration?

Person (even better man) of no colour does bad thing so anything goes for all others could possibly be the thinking behind this kind of gibberish

Who is this person? Never heard of him.

It’s amusing that people who disagree with open borders / mass migration policies need to be labelled as racist or whatever label is in vogue to stifle discussion.

Those who champion those policies seem to be under the illusion that the vast majority of people who question lax migration policies are persuaded to be racist, or anti-immigration, by the likes of him and others like him on the furthest right of the scale.

Not a brain in their heads, no intelligence, education or ability to come to their own conclusions about the problems associated with the huge population increase caused by rapid migration. No, there must be a reason why regular folks are concerned, oh wait - it’s because this guy and his buddies have hypnotised the vast majority into becoming racists 😂😂.

Very perceptive post.

Absolutely this. Especially in these current few years as many kids who are now in their mid-late teens have had to endure a fair bit of isolation during covid. This happened at an important developmental stage in their social skills at their early-teens age. I notice a few youngsters who are fortunate enough to have part-time employment now are very grounded and are much more able to communicate than their peers who are less fortunate in securing part-time employment. Such a shame many teenagers are overlooked/pushed aside in the part-time employment market.

We now see that in the UK they aren't allowing British people to train as doctors because it costs too much and instead they just import doctors from Africa.

So essentially the so called kind and compassionate people of society (as all those who are pro mass immigration are labelled as such) are fine with taking valuable human resources from countries that need them and as a result reducing those countries chances of progressing.

But the only one in the thread who seems to be following him, or even knows who he is, is yourself.

Sometimes i wonder if these guys are getting views and exposure primarily from those who claim to oppose them.

It is like some sort of symbiotic relationship, with each feeding off the other.

Each needing the other.

Anyone know anything about a protest by a group of recently arrived immigrants outside Leinster House chanting ‘we want passports and we want supports’. Didn’t hear about it on RTE or other MSM, took place in the past few days.

The Irish Media will almost never show anything that might paint a cohort of migrants as demanding and entitled so and sos. Only individual migrant sob stories make the cut or stories where migrants are all great and wonderful folk and how Ireland is beyond fortunate to have them to build the utopia we never could.

I see the Indo, examiner still trying to push the cost of deportations as an issue.

Dear Indo, examiner, Rte everyone in the country knows the cost of the flight is a fraction of what it'd cost to keep the passengers here for a year. As refugee industry cheerleaders it's admirable ye keep trying to sell it, just no one buys it anymore!
