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

An English public transport ad that received a single complaint has been banned for ‘perpetuating the negative racial stereotype about black men as perpetrators of threatening behaviour’. Even though he had a white accomplice, because the harasser was black, it was deemed unacceptable. This is despite the fact that, 1) there are plenty of such ads that depict a white person as the sole perpetrator, and 2) the stereotype is true and everyone knows it.

It comes in the wake of a Channel 4 (i.e. left wing) report that found that 50% of television ads feature black people, despite them being only 4% of the population. It couldn’t be clearer that the establishment is engaged in a project to make the public think their country is much more diverse than it actually is.

This is what’s coming down the line for Ireland: endless squabbling over the innumerable micro-conflicts that inevitably occur in a multicultural society. We are completely unprepared because our media refuses to inform us of what is actually happening on the ground in those countries whose immigration policy we are copying.

Reminds of the time a complaint went in because a burglar had a scouse accent, with the company having to dub in a new one.

There is always going to be someone triggered over something.

Just a reminder of who we’re dealing with:

‘After George Floyd’s death people in Ireland were looking at it like, “It’s in the US”. And I was like, “This is not just in the US. Right here in Ireland, we feel people’s knees on our neck, even me, with all my education… Yes, you’re not physically killing us, but you’re emotionally and mentally killing people”.’

There is a deep sense of resentment and anger at all of the absolute brazen chancers who flooded into Ireland over the past 25 years - certainly a factor in race relations in this country.

People are sick of being taken for fools.

I was in my local supermarket yesterday, Ash Wednesday.

I noticed an Irish person with ashes on their forehead.

Then I noticed a good few Muslim women with hijabs in the shop.

And I was angry because I thought our good Catholic country was being taken over by foreigners.

But then I noticed a good few Asian people with ashes on their foreheads, Phillipino I presume.

So now I'm confused and need help from the angry racists here.

Who should I direct my anger and hatred at ?

All foreigners, or should I go easy on the Catholic ones ?

After all they are probably more Catholic than us native Irish at this stage.

I'm very conflicted.

Mod -warned for trolling

I don't remember Ireland being racist 25 years ago. You are spouting codswallop.

Man jailed for nine years for causing unlawful termination of pregnancy

This is an absolutely horrific case. But it also brings up a debate of at what point does criminals like him become our problem? I guess we can't deport him because he moved here at a "young age" with his mother from Nigeria. They don't say what age he was and RTE didn't report this fact.

"The court heard his early teenage years were disruptive and chaotic and that he had been expelled from school a number of times but had completed his education."

He was 22 at the time of this particular offense.

"In terms of mitigating circumstances, Judge Aylmer said Adeleke Adelani entered a plea of guilty on the second occasion that the case was listed for trial.

He said he spared the victim a further ordeal of a trial, which unfortunately she was expecting not once but twice.

He said Adelani had no convictions at the time of the offence, but he had quite considerable subsequent convictions and he was well known to gardaí in the area.

The court heard Adelani is serving a seven-year sentence with the final 18 months suspended for a separate offence, following sentencing last November.

Later in November 2025, he was sentenced to 21 months in prison for a separate offence. Those two sentences will run consecutively.

Judge Aylmer said Adeleke Adelani, who was 22 at the time of this offence appeared to be using his time well in prison, adding that he had completed the Choice for Change programme."

Were we dealing with a ticking time bomb? Would he and his mother have been allowed stay in Ireland had the government at the time taken a stricter view on who can stay? How many other people coming here have mental problems that may yet have dire consequences on the public?

RTE don't say what these offences are. From another site:

"He has previous convictions for assault, false imprisonment, burglary, and production of an article from an incident in July 2022."

I've seen a number of headlines call him "Dublin man", "Donegal man". He's not Irish.

A lot of places are seeing this as a good thing as a good thing as it's keeping schools and services open, but the same reasons for population decline still exist and are not being addressed.

I really fear we are turning places into something akin to native reservations of the US and Australia.

What a scam.

We really need to up the ante and get processing times down.

Quick turn around and ship any chancers back home.

I was out walking in a beautiful peaceful spot in Kerry this evening, the sun was going down and I was listening to the 5pm News.

Lead story: A "Donegal man" who forced his partner to take abortion pills, a first case of it's kind, warranting a 9 year sentence. Adeleke Adelani told his partner he would "beat the kid out of you" if she didn't take the pills. He forced the pills on her and locked her in a room until she aborted. This man is already in prison serving a sentence for another crime he committed. https://www.thejournal.ie/man-forced-abortion-pills-jailed-court-6962317-Feb2026/

2nd story: An Eastern European gang of 7 were arrested today on charges of violent assaults and intimidation relating to an International Drug gang, they are based in Ireland. It involved 16 homes and businesses. At least 2 of the gang were already in prison serving sentences for other crimes when they were arrested this morning. https://www.thejournal.ie/seven-arrests-made-during-garda-operation-targeting-drug-related-intimidation-attacks-6961715-Feb2026/

2 days ago: Ionut Danca was arrested and charged with the manslaughter of a Canadian tourist in O Connell St in 2024. Another of the men in the Romanian group was also charged with assaulting the Canadian. The Canadian (Neno Dolmajian) had come to Ireland for a Liam Gallagher concert. His head was kicked like a football as he lay prone on the street. He died in hospital a few weeks later. https://www.rte.ie/news/courts/2026/0217/1558964-court-neno-dolmajian/

I felt depressed and deeply sad listening to these stories. What has Ireland become? I know we have plenty of our own criminals, murderers and sexual offenders………. but how on earth can anyone say migration is not increasing our crime rates in this country? God help the Gardai is all I can say. This is like "the emperor has no clothes". Its clear as day, week in week out, when you listen to the news that we have a serious and growing crime rate in this country, something we are not allowed discuss! I grew up in different times, simpler time, but now I feel priviliged to have grown up then. I am 60, I have 2 daughters and 3 grandkids and I feel very sad that they will not have the experiences and memories I have of Ireland when it was a more beautiful, simpler and kinder place.

I am sure I will get a barrage of abuse now saying "progress is good" and there was always bad stuff in Ireland. I know that, but it's beside the point, we have imported 10 times more! I am glad I am the age I am…………. and had the youth I had. What the Government has allowed happen in Ireland and at such a fast pace in unforgiveable.

The neck of this fella! At least this was a demonstration as to why border control is really fcukin' important.

One of the worst things to come out of this disastrous immigration scam is having to listen to Irish people defend the indefensible and wrap themselves in absolute knots to pander to their liberal friends and try to feel superior and someway enlightened.

Another thing has been the total and utter death of independent mainstream media and journalism, everyone is bought and paid for and those that arent are meticulously selected because of their brainwashed views and inability to think for themselves.

The strangest of these people are the ones that on one hand talk and act fiercely nationalistic when it comes to language , music , arts , but at the same time don’t actually dare to give one fck about what’s happening to the country now because their artsy mates would disapprove.

The country is going downhill so fast it’s frightening, 50% less footfall reported today for Dublin and all articles blame everything except immigration , tourism down because hotels are full of them , crime up, bull sht Islamic marches and prayer meetings in Ireland ffs

But fck our young people. Who cares if the can’t afford a home , can’t afford to start a life , can’t afford to have a child . There’s plenty of immigrants getting homes for nothing and they’ll have 4/5 kids while paddy will be living at home in his 30’s.

Our politicians, helped by our media and those on the inside have sold our country and our people down the fcking river and we will never ever recover , we will soon just be another France or the Uk , sht holes , Ireland that we knew is dead
