He was all white blubber. No diversity. Had to go. If you reread again carefully you can see that Ahab's crew were a quango.

He doesn't. He calls himself Grand Torino. I don't know why. Maybe he misspelled the title of the excellent Clint Eastwood movie, or the model of Ford that Starsky & Hutch made famous? But go on, I'm interested to know why you feel he's a complete twat for calling himself that.

He should call himself by his real name if he wants to be taken seriously.

Yeah,

You're right,

Just kidding, TGT/Rowan should never be taken seriously, he is a gobshìte of the lowest order.

The big question now is if its too little, too late for the UK.

The UK passed the point of no return years ago. Ireland can be saved but its very hard to see how that is going to happen. Anyone who dares to question this is not going to get into a position of power.

I have hope in the Irish Nation and believe that it will actually propel them into power (hopefully with a new party to finally sort out health, affordable housing for workers/contributors, infrastructure, overpriced projects etc.).

The longer Varadkar and FG can delay a general election [with FF's blessing and help] the less likely we will be able to save Ireland. He's fast tracking citizenship and family reunification for the "new Irish" as fast as he can. So the longer this drags out the more likely he'll be able to stay in and continue this unimpeded.

If there was an election next week, who do you think would be in power after it?

There probably is, but they are so many, and can you see in what conditions they are hosted in (rather than Irish hotels) ...
As I said, its all about balance, one can think we can add quotas per country of origin.

And about Venezuelan refugees: thinking they would have a higher chance of integrating here (being catholic and all), adults of working age could end up having higher employment rate, and more important, their children deserve a better chance too - as imo families with children should be prioritized over what we're getting at the moment from the recent agreements.

Jaysus is there nowhere safe in world. Maybe if people want to emigrate to the us or ozz long term. Maybe we can declare Ireland a warzone too.

Why not stop all this tomorrow and provide help in the home countries...

What are the un doing?

Is the role not to help those in their home countries and protect them....

I have no issues at all with us providing aid but to actually help and do good for those that need it.

There is way too much greed in the world and why is it the ones with the most are the ones that happens to tell us all how to live and put up with it.

UN should be going in and stopping any bloodshed of innocent people.... Children or adults...

Because they won't be the ones landed with the consequences of it and the tossers know this.

First one I posted wouldn't work for some reason

Stop moaning ffs

We should ban taxis as they are dangerous spaces for vulnerable passengers.
Same way we banned churches as they were lethally dangerous to small boys and girls.
Oh wait.

Drivers who's history cannot be varied , especially when it comes to previous criminal behaviour and sexual assaults

And from what can gather form a quick look at the story:
https://www.rte.ie/news/courts/2019/0826/1071059-taxi-driver-charged/

He wasn't given a any term or sentance, and was released on Bail (when Detective objected), and full legal aid was granted.

Bail conditions described as 'strict', which simply means no prowling after 10pm, no taxi driving (clearly), and quick daily visit to a local station.

Don't remember so many rapes being reported by taxi drivers before the taxi industry was culturally enriched

Majority of rapes to this day go unreported. Only a small percentage are. The numbers reported were even fewer back before our immigrant influx and it’s not cos they were all raping.
We had a very very different set up then and women often couldn’t report. Majority of them still don’t.

So be careful before you start blaming immigrants.

Proper asylum process sounds better. Instead of just accepting everyone and anyone. Comparing the churches behaviour to this is stupid.

At least people are addressing the issue now and not turning blind eye like the church scandals all those years.

Thereve been countless cases only the year and loads of outrage about that he same total lack of punishment and all those cases were Irish men. Bit of clarity here

So you're basically telling me that it's only immigrant rapes that get reported?

That largely sounds like gibberish.

If you wanted to take an actual sample, just look over at the uk. You'd discover general criminality from a certain 'ideology/influx' has a 300% over-representation. For raping it's still 200% above the norm.
Not all, but still be careful, about ignoring such concerning over-representation. One nationality from SE Asia in particular may well be even higher.

Then there is the whole wider issue with taxi-licences being obtained illegally through sham marriges and document fraud.

Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty as most on here would be ranting about if this was an Irish man???
