Wasn’t so long ago our own shower couldn’t count. Remember them finding some money down the back of the sofa.

Who can you trust?

Don’t kid yourself, Jimmy. If a Nigerian ever got the chance, he’d eat you and everyone you care about

@anon61878697

You;re here banging on about Ireland turning super racist and right leaning - you’ve said this is growing at an alarming rate… If this is true, then i’d ask you to look beyond the surface and explain why you think this is happening?

It’s happening because people like Justin Barrett are going round to direct provision towns stoking the flames getting the locals worked up and afraid and then people like Grealish are exploiting this fear and making inflammatory comments to whip up their parish pump base.

@anon61878697

shouting down everything and anything deemed racist hardly helps either?

Shouting down? If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, talks like a duck, guess what? Its a fucking duck. Don’t exhibet the stench of racism and then have a little cry for yourself when you get called out on it

@anon61878697

I’d flip what you said on its head and suggest there’s a lot of anger in Ireland because we are being priced out of our own country - young people cant get homes - the cost of living is crazy - and at no other time in history are people more aware of what they dont have due to social media

So we need someone to blame, what minority can we blame all our troubles on this week? I know, those pesky cab driving Nigerians. Oldest right wing political strategy in the book and village idiots fall for it every time, hook line and sinker

@anon61878697

I think Grealish is guilty of being a stupid fucker more than anything here…

You are some fool if you genuinely think this. Seriously if you are an as ‘open and least racist’ person as you say you are then cop on to yourself and see the wood from the trees at the tactics he’s employing here.

@anon61878697

The national debt we were saddle with by the inept political class - and it’s the ordinary person still feeling the pinch from this… you want to tackle rising racism or right leaning views - then you address the issue crippling people — not shout them down and back them into a corner.

No one is shouting you down. We are sharing an open platform. People are disagreeing with you and you just don’t like it.

@anon61878697

Of course change the issue . Racism is one of many issues facing the country. The speed at which it has been exposed here as more to do with the likes of Noel Grealish realising he has such a loving audience. Personally I find this quite sad but if hes a hero to you I’m sure it won’t be the last time he whistles in your direction

@Sidney

They don’t tell us much, except that they do tell us what sort of person you are - they tell us a lot about that actually

See this is exactly the type of thing that annoys me about some of the ‘committed left’, but in particular you.

You delight with the occurrence of some questionable statement so you can get on your platform and pontificate.

You then rush to judgement about the overall psyche of people based on their comments on the statement, casting them aside with a ‘says a lot about you as a person’ - indeed similar to the generalisations made by racists which you rightly deem so abhorrent.

So my take on it is that I am certainly not going to have anyone pass judgment on the type of person I am, or should be. I am certainly not going to be judged by people who could well have their very own questionable practices behind their shouting leftist front.

Great to see Leo put this whole thing to bed

Varadkar continues: Grealish figures are from the World Bank; they are “estimates provided to the World Bank by Nigerian authorities and are not actual data” - Ireland says those details “are open to serious scrutiny and we would believe our statistics are the accurate ones”.

Lads trusting The fucking Nigerians

Is this the same Leo Varadkar who estimated in his “welfare cheat” campaign that it costs the state 500m a year when the truth was it was closer to 40m?

I think we have reason to place more trust in the Nigerian figures.

[gilgamboa]

Some serious essays being banged out here with injudicious use of multi quote function…smashing stuff. Didnt read one word of it thanks be to fuck

[myboyblue]

You’d be the lad who trusted the Greeks too.

[Lazarus]

Someone will be along in a minute to mention how triggered everbody is today

[anon61878697]

Waffle. I’ve never exhibited racism nor defended racism nor am I on about me personally being shouted down FFS… I’m on about society in general… Every thing is moral outrage / point scoring / and superficial faux concern … what ever happened to dealing with the real issues crippling society? - my point is that these are all set aside as we get caught up in the surface level horseshit and on and around we go … it’s fucking pathetic - not a bit of substance to people today… but continue on there dealing with whatever ‘drama’ pops out tomorrow so you can virtue signal to your hearts content.

You are ya. If you want to post stupid and bigoted shite you can prepare to judged on it. That’s fair enough.

[Lazarus]

No, the issue is racism and you are doing everything you can to digress from that.

Probably at home beating up their husbands

[anon61878697]

Far from it ---- There was nothing wrong with Grealish’s question — it was a stupid question in the grand scheme of things and his figures were completely wrong - but there’s nothing wrong with questioning how money leaves Ireland.

[Lazarus]

Grealish has form, the country knows this, why don’t you?

[anon61878697]

He’s not on my radar.

Where was the stupid and, in particular, bigotted shite?

You twat - that was clearly exaggerated for effect.
