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

I can't imagine the terminally racist being happy if Ireland was 90% foreign in perpetuity like the UAE.

Research on the effect of migrants on public finances in Finland found that Somalis had a net lifetime cost of € 951,000, while Iraqis cost almost € 700,000. When the migrants’ children were added, the figure for Somalis went up to € 1.34 million

No doubt it’ll be different for Ireland for some reason

Shur can’t we afford it anyway, we’ve billions to spend supporting citizens of other nations, after all they need our help and didn’t we go all over the world 🙄.

The open borders Good Samaritans and Robin Hoods forget about our own citizens needs - shur haven’t they plenty of options 😂. The recent arrivals who risked life and limb to get here have nothing and don’t forget, we have obligations, international and EU. No problem that our own can be on waiting lists for years for health, caring or housing supports, they might have to pay through the nose for every service they need, or best of all, if things are tough they can emigrate !!

It’s a deranged way of thinking - putting citizens of other nations before our own is seriously messed up.

This is a quite literal example of being sick of paying for other peoples ****.

I see some manufacturers are dropping the word "easter" from easter eggs.

Madness

Lots of Irish companies too which is even more worrying

There’s been a controversy in the UK after a Conservative MP said ‘mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination’, referring to the Muslim prayer event in Trafalgar Square.

Keir Starmer said he should be sacked. Many other establishment types have condemned him. It comes at a time when a definition of Islamophobia is being drawn up, which will be enshrined in law. Labour have said it will have no effect on free speech, but before it has even been enacted, their leader is calling for a politician to be sacked for criticising an Islamic event.

It was discussed on Trevor Phillips’s programme on Sky News, starting at 55:00. The Muslim panellist’s first words were, ‘I mean, can we just please just stop? This is just out of control Islamophobia.’ She went on to detail how she is integrated into British society, as if that contradicts the many who are not. I post it because it illustrates a point I’ve made before - in Britain, and increasingly in Ireland, you are not allowed to talk about immigration unless in the presence of an immigrant or child of immigrants. That person will be stridently pro-immigration and chosen specifically for their presentability, and it’s impossible to criticise immigration in their presence without seeming callous or, inevitability, racist. The result is that debate is inhibited and the immigration continues.

There needs to be a ‘safe space’ in the media for indigenous Irish to reflect on the last twenty years of immigration and decide whether it should continue unabated, without the obstructive presence of someone whose very existence in Ireland depended on the immigration policy in question.

Everyone thinking placating Muslims is going to go well should have a look at what happened with Australian PM Anthony Albanese last week when he visited a mosque.Despite continually pandering to Muslims over the years he was nearly lynched in this Mosque. Will this be a lesson to all appeasers of Islam in the west? of course it won't as deep down they just hate the west themselves and appeasing Muslims is part of this.

The likes of the british Labour party who have continually pandered to Muslims in the UK are a disgrace and in my opinion I'd classify a lot of them as traitors.

So much for "Paying for our Pensions".

Dark times indeed

The abuse Ryan Casey is getting is just sickening.

Most of them hiding behind fake profiles because they are cowards who are afraid to show their face when hating on a man who is grieving the loss of his partner.

Judaism is not a proselytising religion Islam is so for that reason alone its more of a problem

Also Jews haven't held large scale prayer events in public which ban women Muslims have.They also do this constsntly in western countries , its a way if tying to assert themselves , when they do these public prayer things within Muslims countries they are often given short shrift by the authorities

Silent prayer by Christians outside abortion centres is not tolerated by the police in the UK yet mass prayer in trafalgar square is.Footballers are warned about having messages praising jesus on their jerseys yet they stop premier league games due to fasting during ramadan

Everyone with any sense knows there is an agenda behind these Muslim prayer events , everyone can see the increase in pandering to muslim beliefs despite the opposite being the case for other religions. People like you who think or pretend this isn't happening are just being used as useful idiots .

Admittedly I probably shouldn't have responded to your post as you always seem to join a thread and take the non prevailing , non common sense view just for the sake if it.

Got proof or is that another conspiracy theory of yours .

Of pushing Islam and it's values on the rest of society and slowly eroding the secularism which has developed in europe over the last 60 years.

Continual allowances are being made to Muslim beliefs and beliefs from countries that are culturally islamic over the last few years, cousin marriage (which should be banned), halal slaughter etc etc. Of course you now this you've just decided to play dumb.
