She wouldnt win anything nowadays her videos are so littered with fake and false news.

If I recall correctly, her Mary Boyle award was from a pretty questionable group.

Can't see the full list of awards. There's a floating cookie notice covering some of them. It says "You can switch off cookies in your browser."

Hmm - I don't think that actually complies with the relevant directive... she's tracking me!

What would you like? Perhaps we should just rip up that silly old Geneva Convention on Refugees? Sure who needs that like.

As for the 500 million potential new inhabitants - that's not very likely is it? Do you think Henri and Marcella are going to wake up one morning and think Non! Provence and Tuscany are not for us. Ballyheigue here we come.
Why Berlin when you could have Ballymun?

I'm amazed it's taking them so long to arrive tbh.

Of course, conversely 5 million of us can go live anywhere in the E.U legally. Which is far more likely to happen.

It's called freedom of movement within the EU. It is not a new thing. And its a good thing. For people outside the EU we do not have an open border policy. No matter how many times you say we do we don't.

On the flip side you don't want immigration so you're obviously ok with no migration from Ireland (cause no one has ever left right?). If no one can come in no one can leave. That sound OK to you.

If it was up to me I'd pull out of it we have being taking for a ride for far too long.

The vast majority of asylum seekers here are bogus and have no idea how they got into Ireland.

We should look at Japan as example of "best practice" for dealing with asylum applications.

More nonsense. In 2016 out of 4,446 people deported from Ireland (most denied at point of entry) 428 failed asylum seekers were deported.

Let's hear you next accusation without a shred of evidence. Also i'm still waiting to know if your against migration from Ireland. If no one can come in no one can leave, Right?

sydthebeat · 09-04-2019 5:00pm

all i hear is "der durk aurr derbs ! "

we dont have mass immigration into ireland.
if anything we have an aging population which isnt being renewed by our own, whcih will lead to a major sh!testorm in teh future in regards to pensions and health care costs.

we dont have 'open borders' to all immigrants either.

Here's my theory about Gemma. She was always a bit out there and when she over stepped the mark by door stepping Callinan she got put in her place by the obvious powerful people who do pull a few strings. She then lost the plot and began to believe that every strata of society is controlled and it is all a big conspiracy.

I do remember Charlie Flanagan saying on TV that they just turn up and we have by law to examine the case .These are well known facts per many years you obviously know very little about this system it's also going off topic.

Sorry, do you know anybody who is in favour of corruption? If you support the stance of the likes of Gemma and her loonies then what you are saying, to differentiate yourself from saner opponents of misuse of power, is that you think it can all be resolved by:
restricting the "mainstream media" whose power, in this era of social media has never weaker;
ranting about "Dublin 4 elites" and leaving aside the false assumption that Dublin 4 equals elite or that the horrendous middle class accent often wrongly called D4 which anybody with a note in their head despises, don't you find it an irony that Gemma possesses just such an accent and went to that most D4 of schools, Muckross in Donnybrook?;
equating the recovery of legitimate debt with a "land grab" against the Irish people--rarely true and each case should be taken on its merits. Laws used to recover property, including residences, in lieu of debt defaults are Irish laws, drawn up by an Irish legislature acting in accordance with an Irish republican constitution. Bleating about "foreign banks" and "nothern mercenaries" is just populist tripe;
Blaming much of our ills on "globalism" as if that were an ideology cooked up by bogey man figures such as George Soros. Globalisation isn't an ideology; it's a technology based fact of modern life. Why do people use the Internet to buy mobile phones from China or clothes from India or consumer goods from anywhere and everywhere? Because they CAN!! And that has more to do with Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and the guys who set up Intel than it has to do with the likes of Mr Soros.

As for blaming ills on immigrants: that's NEVER a good idea, always dangerous and just appeals to the lowest instincts in people. And it's a red herring anyway. If you want to get rid of migrants, just trash your economy. That'll deter them. Of course, then WE become the migrants....again.....

I think most object to freeloaders who come in the backdoor and demand benefits. The rules for EU and welfare should also carry restrictions one of the reasons for Brexit.

LOL

i wouldnt be pointing to brexit as an argument for getting out of the EU because of border control issues.

The UK seems to have completely forgotten that they allowed actual "open border" policy for immigrants from the Caribbean due to their nationality act of 1948 which bestowed british citizenship on their colonies.

now they complain about immigrants because of the EU free movement.

i would be comical if it wasnt so tragic.

Worse still Syd, these morons voted to leave the EU because they believed that not only could they stop EU migration, but they's also stop Non-EU migration.

Being married to an Irish Citizen doesn't automatically mean the person gets Irish citizenship, it helps but doesn't mean that people can't be deporteD or even gain entry to Ireland if not an EU citizen. I'm sure your aware of this.

Also the link you provided earlier states that 90% of claims for asylum are rejected, not the open borders you and drr brown are claiming.

Better again, some of them were very upbeat about the prospect of less Muslim immigration, by essentially replacing EU immigrants with Commonwealth ones over time.

EU Muslim population: around 45mn
Commonwealth Muslim population: around 500mn

Is that what's happening? Are there hordes of "foreigners" flocking here because they've heard El Dorado-like tales of our wonderful welfare state? "Wait till you see the free Bed and Breakfast accommodation they give to the homeless in Ireland! It's fab!! And if you get sick, you only have to wait on a trolley in an emergency department for about a day while they get a bed for you. Even for the Irish themselves the wonderful free health service is a matter of national pride!!""

With all due respect, yours is a straw-man argument. In practice, what most people resent about immigrants is the work they DO, not what they don't do. They resent the competition for jobs, not their idleness. Was the Limerick pogrom of more than 100 years ago about welfare payments? No. It started off at resentment by the lower end of the business community about the unwelcome competition that had appeared in town.

This is not just an Irish thing either. Have a listen to that paragon of racial harmony [/heavy sarcasm] Ice Cube and his diatribe about Korean shopkeepers (Black Korea, it's on Youtube) who had the nerve to set up in his "hood". No mention of skiving or jumping hospital waiting lists there. Give him a white pasty face and a Limerick accent and shift his target from Koreans to Jews and he'd be indistinguishable from our forebears in 1904.

As for the EU rules on welfare and restrictions: I believe there are many such restrictions that can be put in place without breaching the "four freedoms". But that doesn't sit well with some people's agendas.

When did Gemma O Doherty go batshyt crazy?
