Belfast Far Right Riots 2026 [Mod Note in OP]

The birth rate in Switzerland is 1.29, so well below the replacement rate, so it's population is falling. I would imagine that a cap would be managed by controling migration and visa's handed out. With a population of 9.2 million people there's room for 800,000 more people, hit that and you simply don't allow anbody else in. What a surprise that the 'pro migrant' side can only think in terms of who they get to kill to achieve their numbers, as usual, it's babies and the elderly that first come to mind for your average lefty.

That last sentence is as unhinged as it is disingenuous.

I've always wondered what people get out of posting such absolute scutter. I've never gotten an answer.

It just seems that if you're to the left of Genghis Khan, you're a far left activist who supports open borders.

It's funny how every where this is happening it's the fault of all the lefties who have never been in government.

It must be a horrible existence to be that paranoid all the time.

The impression that I've had for a while is that these lads have gotten these talking points from their social media echo chambers and just repeat them here. I regularly find that, when pressed, they struggle to elaborate because that's not what happens in said echo chambers.

I recall two telling reactions to a request for a definition of the word "woke". One was hysteria that I would ask such a thing and another was a dump of hundreds of words of text from some American site.

Modern conservatism, especially Trumpism strongly discourages enquiry and debate. You simple accept and regurgitate dogma. Any questions are met with the usual tactics.

Speaking of immigration, why is it the only place when people express "genuine concerns"? Where are these concerns when it comes to austerity, the HSE, schools, infrastructure, domestic policy or mass emigration? Why do we never see the genuine concerns people then?

Or indeed, violence against the women and children they claim to want to protect.

If a white person carries out horrible attacks like that and there's talk about men being violent, they all clutch their pearls and refuse to have anything to do with it.

Why does this need to be pointed out over and over again.

Homegrown crime is unfortunately part of life in any country as sadly you'll never have a crime free country, however just because there are homegrown scumbags doesn't mean that they should be imported from abroad. Scumbags arriving here are a policy decision by government as they can restrict numbers if they wish and implement policies and strict vetting that reduces the chances of scumbags arriving.

So we shouldn't have a discussion about male violence against women when an Irish man does it. There's nothing to see here.

Got it. Let's just not listen to the women of this country and only pay attention to the skin colour of a man.

There is constant discussion about male violence against women, violence aganst women is sadly never going away though as unfortunately there are a certain percentage of scumbags in every country.

We did have a big discussion and a bout of self flagellation around Aisling Murphys murder and how we as Irish men need to do better and how Irish mens a inherent sexist and misogynistic attitude towards women caused this murder, it then turned out a few days later that he was from Slovakia and the discussion was very quickly dropped because the media didn't want to be point out that allowing scum like him and his family to live in Ireland without contributing indirectly led to her murder.

We then had another big discussion and bout of self fleggelation around the beheading of the 2 gay men in Sligo and how Irish people have in-built homophobia because we used to be a very conservative catholic country, it then turned out a few days later that the killer was an iraqi Muslim and it was decided by the media not to have a discussion about how being an Iraqi muslim might possibly contribute to hating gay people but it was ok for the same media to imply how being a catholic country might lead to someone here being homphobic.

I mean, this is the level of gobshitery you're dealing with:

They avoid discussing why they are allowed to stay here in the first place.

The mainstream media largely avoided pointing out that Puska was able to kill because he'd been allowed to leech of the tax payer for 15 years when he should have been sent home to Slovakia long ago. Same applied with the Iraqi guy who beheaded to 2 men in Sligo same applies for these Sudanese guy in Belfast. Those 3 never should have been here in the first place.

Very strict vetting procedure around immigration/asylum is what people want, it means we'll only get high quality people arriving on our shores. Sadly this appears to have been abandoned as an idea in much of the western world when in reality it should be a core principle of immigration policy in every single country in europe.

Also banned from liveline

But how can any government legislate their way around this? By all means, we should have laws that anyone who is a violent criminal cannot enter the country (or is liable to quick deportation), but some of the lone nutjobs we've seen don't have a criminal record or and are not known to psychiatric services.

There is always the risk in society that certain lone individuals will go off the rails. I don't particularly like the argument that with immigration, we are 'importing' criminals or violent individuals - it completely ignores the fact that we are also 'importing' huge numbers of decent, hard working people who can make a contribution to society. That argument focuses solely in on the rotten apples and completely ignores the good behaviour of the 99%+ who are doing well.
