Joe or Margaret?

Margaret prob costs the state/taxpayer €20-30k a year.
Joe on the other hand.......

Is Joe deliberately freezing Áine out of the conversation?

Judgement Day

The population of Nigeria stands at circa 160 million and is estimated to reach 440 million by 2050...just how many will Ireland be expected to take? Some posters here need to wake up and smell the coffee.

As much as I love Joe getting taken down a peg, Aine's a fanatic!

Im not sure what joe is trying to do. Yday's show was about conditions and delays in the process. The delays were explained to be due to appeals (likely to be gratuitously done) so now it's really about this woman and immigration.

Time for a new topic if joes isn't too lazy.

The citizenship by birth loophole was only present since 1999 when the constitution was changed to allow anyone born "on the Island of Ireland or it seas and territories" (or something like that), to allow those born in the North claim Irish citizenship if they so wished. It wasn't intended to give a free-for-all citizenship to anyone who happened to be born here.

I'm waiting for a Dublin Taxi Driver to offer his opinion on the whole thing, there isn't a day goes by that I don't see a dub taxi man fighting with a nigerian taxi man

Ama in fair city is from Zambia/Zimbabwe and every time something doesn't go her way she says "I pack my bag and go". She still hasn't gone, bit of a joke amongst the posters on fair city thread.

Harry Angstrom

Joe doesn't like the word "minors"

JonathanAnon

I love the way this woman tackles Joe.. He cant use his usual bully boy tactics against her...

Hitchens

ok, Aine may be a bit strong but she is just giving Joe a good kicking here

having 10k a month coming in in the late 90s to make out like bandits in the black economy and spoofing their arse off about why there here was quite somthing eles.

mad that even now we cant have a converstaion about that in the media without the PC brigade going nuts.

Jeeze the stats on population increase there are shocking!!!
Is that Wiki accurate??? WOWSERS!
No wonder they want to get outta there!
:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

snubbleste

This is a very unfair show.
Áine should be given more time to air her views instead of being attacked like this by sob stories.
I'm assuming she got the call.

alexonhisown

Aine is sooo cold hearted. And i am sure i keep hearing her giggle. She sounds nuts.

JM Skipton

Whats Aine's obsession with the west, connemara is beautiful in summer but jaysus all year round?

I wonder how Pamela is getting on back home?

JONJO THE MISER

Why doesn't Joe do a poll asking if people believe these people are scammers, he loves to do it on other occasions.
Ill tell you why, the result would be over 90% believe we are being taken for a ride.

ButtersSuki

Wonder did Imelda spot Walter White when he was hiding out in New Hampshire? Joe didn't ask so I think we can assume he's not a Breaking Bad fan.

JONJO THE MISER

Yes a lot of them kosovo families were resettled around here, and i agree with that because they were genuine refugees not these African scammers.
