Would you care to elaborate on who exactly you are referring to when you say "TOO MANY" were let in.

Are you talking about Asylum Seekers? Or Economic Migrants, or foreigners in general?

Too many Nigerians. Too many Chinese. Too many Lithuanians. Too many Latvians. Too many Russians. Too many Romanians.

Ah shur female genital mutilation http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs241/en/

Tis no grounds for granting asylum at all. Bit of cold water on it afterwards and it'll be grand...
And shur a lot of the time filthy implements are used, like bits of broken glass, twigs etc. But put a bit of Dettol on it and that'll clear up any infection.

They're savages out there. If a Saudi person claims asylum in Ireland because they have committed a crime at home and are going to be beheaded or mutilated if they return, should be let them in ? I don't think so. It's a problem with their own country. They should start a revolution if they want to change it. Not run to Ireland expecting us to take them in.

....too many greedy fvcking Irish.

Two of those nationalities are in the EU - you do know that don't you?

And we're stillwaiting for explanations of what you mean by "neo-liberal" and exactly how the foreigners are to blame for the crisis and not the greedy Irish.

Did I hear that this woman already lost a child to female gential mutilation? Not sure Id want to go home either with two other little girls to worry about.

Yeah her first child Elizabeth, died at 18 months from profuse bleeding due to FGM.
I am horrified to hear about the courts ruling. Having met Pamela and her beautiful two daughters it saddens me greatly. They are a family very much integrated into Irish life and I hope her appeal to the Supreme court is succesful.

freedom of speech is allowed here i hope?.
there are alot of people out there that are afraid to speak their minds on issues like this in case they're called racists and thats a known fact. personally i'm delighted and my main reason is this.
they arrive here from whatever country they come from after country hopping and are immediatley housed and then go on strike if the food and accomodation isn't good enough this happened not to long ago by the way. everyday we see tens of homeless irish begging and sleeping rough on our streets and the government couldn't give a rats arse about them. another common fact is that alot of asy seekers are given s/w cheques to buy second hand cars. it's common practise for them to leave perfectly good buggies on buses knowing quiet well that they'll get a brand new one of the s/w.i have travelled on buses where a driver has told them they're forgetting the buggy and the reply was" they dont want it because they'll get a new one within days". no offence but to me our government should look after our own homeless first then the asy seekers and if it means leaving them on the streets then fair enough.i can guarantee you they'll be some other countrys problem within days if left on the streets.
now after all this i'm waiting for all the do-gooders out there to take a swipe at me

I agree with you entirely. Well said. I remember that in the throes of the Celtic Tiger boom, Dermot Ahern was on record as saying that he would do everything in his power "to speed up" the asylum seeking process. I can guarantee you that this has caused us our current problems. Bloody leeching non-EU migrants everywhere.

rkeane · 27-01-2009 03:12PM

Btw I'm a qualified pilot, in this era of cut backs I'm willing to do my patriotic duty and fly them back to Nigeria.......for free!

Dunno about the do-gooders, but the rest of us have been taking "swipes" at you for a while now. You've been ignoring them.

Actually, can I add "do-gooders" to the list of clarifications I'm STILL wainting on from you?

Hah, I'm non-EU and would almost be sure I've paid twice the taxes you have in the eight years I've been here. Stop generalising. If you have a problem with bogus asylum seekers, make your case. If you have a problem with real asylum seekers, you have issues I can't help with. If you have a problem with non-EU migrants here earning money and paying taxes... so be it, but don't for one second lump us all together as it just shows a level of ignorance I never imagined the Irish could posses.

If you really think immigrants caused this recession you are seriously deluded and are readin far too much of the Evening Herald. Yeah it was Pamela and her two 7 year old kids who cause shops to go into administration,global markets crashing, banks to collapse,buisnessess into bankrupcy.... :rolleyes:

Your anger might be better directed at corrupt politicans, bankers, speculators, developers and greedy corporations.

You're dodging the point. Your gross generalisations show nothing but a close minded xenophobic attitude and do nothing but foster poor relations and spread lies and innacuracies about what is going on out there.

Rant all you want about bogus asylum cases and illegal immigrants, I'll join you, but don't be tarring us all with the same brush.

:D Finally after costing Irish taxpayers millions with her bogus claims she is going to be deported, looks like the judges of this country are waking up and and sensing the mood of people in this country, Ireland is no longer a soft touch.

Berlin has a far stronger left-wing population by Dublin, by which I mean anarchist/punk/communist attitudes. I'd have thought it was common knowledge. I'm going by seven months living in the city, seeing them, meeting them, talking to them. It comes mainly from the city's history and a less Amercan approach to consumerism. This is, by definition, neo-liberalism.

Erm...I know the type since I'm a Berliner myself, now living in Ireland.
They're the Alternativszene, the left wing, the "Alternativ-Gruen" intellectuals from Prenzlberg & Kreuzberg and other old Berlin districts (linke Kieze). Very bohemian, very educated (and sometimes full of bull**** too) and mostly very nice people I'd have a lot in common with, but the one thing they are not is neo-liberal. They would actually consider themselves to be very opposed to neo-liberal people. The term 'neo-liberal' is used for a different mindset altogether.

Funny thing init, historically? That of all the places Berlin has a traditionally very strong left-wing, bohemian population.

Does this woman pay her taxes or live on handouts ?

As an asylum seeker, she is legally barred from entering into any type of work.

I consider the Poles to be one of the few types of migrants who are good for the country. In general they have a good work ethic. I think the Chinese are good as well but we have too many of them and they are mostly a dour lot who don't integrate well in Irish society

Argument settled so. Get rid of her back to her own country and we won't have to put up with this additional expense. What about the legal fees ? I'm assumed we the taxpayers are paying for these as well. Bloody ridiculous
