The same lads who oppose Ukrainian refugees coming here would be the exact same people who would oppose refugees from the North coming down here should God forbid a major outbreak of violence happen.

80% of people in Russia support their barbaric war against Ukraine. Whatā€™s your point? That policy should be decided entirely by opinion poll?

So no limits? How do you propose providing services to new arrivals when young Irish people canā€™t find accomodation, the average waiting time to see a GP in rural Ireland is now 2-3 months and 2-3 years to see a specialist (by which stage often too late for successful treatment).

Wokeness = suspension of reality.

You do understand thereā€™s a war, yes?

You spent years going on about the treatment of Jews in the run up to and during World War II. And now youā€™re the very same as the people that condemned those Jews to death.

Itā€™s grimly hilarious.

The likes of you and those cunts going all NIMBY against refugees are nothing more than pea-brained NIMBY cunts with all the human empathy of a snake, with apologies to snakes.

Nobody rational is opposed to Ireland taking in its fair share of Ukrainian refugees fleeing a war zone.

My family helped dozens of refugees fleeing NI in the 70s, sio you can fuck right off with the rest of your ā€œinsightā€.

Please fuck off with your ā€œinsightā€ into anybody else.

Nobody needs any insight into you to know you lack basic empathy for other human beings, you display it every time you post here.

Why donā€™t you take a refugee in your own home if you feel that strong about it.

You can be sure the tourists staying in Ardillaun didnā€™t arrive into Dublin/Shannon/Cork with ripped up passports. Your argument is ridiculous. Comparing apples and oranges.

We dealt with two Georgian gentlemen at work a few weeks back. They had arrived into Shannon on a flight from Budapest late at night. They descended the plane and immediately threw themselves onto the tarmac claiming ā€œasylumā€. They had ditched all documentation. This is a common tactic among non-genuine refugees. Bear in mind the country they originated from is not currently classed as ā€œhigh riskā€ for citizens welfare by the UN.
Anyone who thinks we should be taking in arrivals like these two guys, unvetted, is not well.

Genuine asylum cases should be processed with a cap in mind, depending on the current level of accommodation available.

This is nothing racist about a sensible stringent immigration policy.

This is certainly true. The fascists are very organised in Ireland. Iā€™d imagine thereā€™s some very genuine people in places like Inch whose heads are filled with propaganda from the National Party or whatever theyā€™re called. And they are dangerous cunts. Without going into details, they came to my workplace and tried to assault (they landed a few punches) a colleague who had stood up to them

When the genuine people are told to fuck off and that they should be shipped off to a racist part of the world, you can see why they might lean more towards people peddling disinformation ā€¦

Itā€™s your fault specifically.

There is a whole cohort of posters on this forum who have set up to deny this fact. The currently 13 posters who ā€œlikedā€ the screed of shite by @Gary_Birtles_Lovechi above are a good pointer as to who they are.

Deplorables are generally self selecting.

This seemingly sensible or moderate view is of course against international law. A genuine asylum case isnā€™t something that anyone should be rejecting on the grounds of ā€œthe country being full.ā€ Itā€™s untrue, immoral and selfish.

We have obligations under the Geneva Convention and under EU law and EU policy that we should be meeting. A more mature or sympathetic society might welcome the chance to offer protection to those ā€œgenuineā€ cases youā€™re mentioning.

But regrettably many people opt for mealy mouthed statements like the one above which amount to basically vetoing any refugeeā€™s rights, lest they inconvenience the selfish minded who would rather ignore human suffering.

A policy would be a start.
