Where is this mentioned? Why would MI5 be briefing some punter on the number of Isis connected asylum seekers in Ireland? That strikes me as complete nonsense and I would safely say that yes, I do know better.
She maintains that a significant proportion of asylum seekers are terrorists. Nonsense. She maintains that they are “programmed” and so need to be deprogrammed, also clearly nonsense. It’s completely baseless and stupid.
She is not only not more informed, but clearly less informed than the average person.
No more racist than anyone on here? I’d also dispute that. There are a right few tulips on here alright but do a many people think that a “significant proportion” of asylum seekers are programmed by Isis? It beggars belief how stupid and baseless that statement is.
MI5! The one thing this country needs more of is interference from British security forces.
Her next campaign will tell a lot. She’s either racist or unbelievably ignorant. I guess we’ll soon find out based on whether she continues to chase the far right vote.
And why is a foreign security service briefing her on the proportion of asylum seekers in our country associated with Isis? That doesn’t strike you as strange? This woman is clearly a thick, and you take her at her word that what she said was conveyed to her by mI5? Do you reckon she got it straight from James bond himself?
I’m sure she got a generic briefing about being careful about migrants using containers etc. It doesn’t make her any sort of expert on terrorism or migration in general and that was abundantly clear from her absurd comments on the issue.
I appreciate you have a personal loyalty here. If you feel she’s of reputable character then fine. But her “expertise” was fairly blown out of the moment when she made those ridiculous comments.
So she’s the expert because she represents the people smuggling the Isis activists into Ireland is it? Did she interview her members to establish this or directly canvas the people being smuggled in personally?
So you’re castigating her for accusing a minority group of people (illegal immigrants) of something, yet you have no issue is doing the same thing to another minority group of people (truckers)?
What evidence do you base the accusation on? The briefing would have been to warn all truckers of the danger of illegal immigrants sneaking onto their trucks.
