Non Nationals, Refugee's and the Budget.

stevoman

So we are all being told to be prepared to tighten our belts, suck it up and get ready for financial turmoil. Our fags are going up, drink is going up and all of us who get up off out arses everyday to work are being told that our tax's are going up. Even if we go on bloody holiday to get away from it all we are going to be bent over and taxed on that too!!

My question is though, as i passed by a social welafre office the other day and seen non nationals and refugee's ( and a far less amount of Irish people there) standing outside it queing, is the goverment going to have the balls to tell some of these people, "sorry we have no money to give you, maybe you will have to back to your own countires as we cant afford to pay you social welfare payments anymore"?

ps - this is a real discussion as the goverment has distanced itself away from the immegration arguement and its not a racist troll thread!

Refreshing to see your last sentence rather than the usual "oh and the bleeding heart, PC liberals can **** off" etc...

Non EU folks who won't work and who don't need to be here shouldn't be. The problem is how to ascertain who needs to be here and who doesn't. How can it be figured out whether a person is merely here to sponge or came here to work but just cannot find a job?

I love you, too.

I thought the thread title ment we were all getting a free refugee in the budget:(

Rather than admit our system is broken, we will just raise taxes.

Great!

I think the lenght of somwhon being in the country and how much they have taken from social welfare and if they have worked, how much they have contibuted to the country should be the major factor.

Exactly. There are slackers on the dole that have never contributed with PRSI and PAYE.

Let's kick a few lazy Irish out.

You mean you dont have one? You should, they're great. I have Mewengwe, he is from Addis Abbiba. He makes the most awesome cheesburgers in the World.

The dole should be available for a maximum of six months then cut off.This applies to irish people especially as some of them have been ****ing the system far longer than any foreigner.

As we did before: England.

Anybody fit to work who is on the dole long term should be made to work, I dunno cleaning streets.

And carrying things for people with jobs.

I had to carry loads of big heavy bags of shopping all the way home after a long days work yesterday, if there was somebody sitting around all day they should be made to help. I paid for them.

I could do with an SES scheme refugee for some light chores around the gaff, would that be a possibility?

Or like in Australia where you have to work for the dole.

How do you identify a refugee/non-national from everyone else? I'd like to know how you do it.

The same way I can spot another Irishman when I am abroad. I don't know how I can tell but I am usually right. Same here I can usually tell if someone is not from Ireland without having to speak to them, most people can, but I suspect that's not where you were going with your post!

You can tell this just by walking past someone at the Social Welfare office?

I predict with my awesome psychic powers that people who choose to work for a living will be shafted in this budget and people on the dole will get more money.
A great message to be sending out.

Non nationals wear leprechaun hats, dublin/cork/Kerry etc GAA shirts and have pasty white legs that look like they have never seen the sun?

Social welfare is the only department not getting hammered apparently.

The dole is going to get tied to inflation which is something that they couldn't do with the National Wage Agreement. Anyone who bothers working is going to get ass raped to pay for a budget that the minister for finance has promised will deliver nothing!

Seriously why are people clamouring for bank officials to be prosecuted for mismanagement off their funds when it's blatantly obvious that politicians have fuked up far worse and with absolutely no consequences!

But most refugees here don't have flame-red faces, big guts and GAA tops?

So to hell with the almost 400 000 Euro I've paid in taxes since I've been here?

Oh ffs! Have a bit of cop on. Skin colour and the fact they might speak in a foreign accent or a foreign language. It's not that bloody difficult to spot non nationals.
If you walk past a building and the majority in there are of different skin colour to Irish then it's highly likely that the most of them are not Irish, isn't it?

Yep, it's pretty easy to tell an Irish person from a non-Irish person.

If you've paid your taxes and contributed to society, in my view - you've more right to be here than a lot of people who's only claim to contribution to Irish society is that their mother managed to catch pregnant.
