That unrest in the UK should be very concerning for us, due to two reasons. Reason one is that it may spark similar events here and the way the government is pushing through their plans, will escalate the tensions here. We have nowhere to peacefully place the lets call a spade a spade, the economic migrants, and ramming more IPAS centres into communities to deal with the numbers here will push communities over the edge. Secondly there are clashes now in the UK between the native population and the migrant population, hotels housing migrants have been attacked. This will force those migrants in the UK to run to Ireland and in doing so will feed into my first point. This has the potential to descend into a spiral of chaos and we need to act on this now or we will see similar scenes here like the UK.

It should concern people in Ireland as the agitators are the same

Do you think agitators are the issue? Would a match light under water?

.Donegal.

A Hotel in Rotherham allegedly hosting asylum seekers is currently under attack. Bricks thrown at windows, burning bins against the hotel and recently it’s just been breached with scores of people entering it. Someone is going to get killed.

The unrest is based on lies, so yes - the agitators are the issue.

Blatant corruption 10 years on the trot now turning into a sprint.

Unchecked for a decade and now lo and behold.

It's all too easy to attempt putting ever tighter lids on tye situation but all its doing is building pressure.

It surely must be billions of euros at this point spent/funnelled on migration issues.

Multiple crises each year worse than the last, from housing to childcare.

Protest peacefully? No change.

Challenge via the law? No change.

Protest politicians? "Don't do that".

Protest developers? "Don't do that".

Protest outside migrant centres? "Dont do that".

Contact politicians? No change.

Ever more violent protests/riots? "Don't do that" (more obviously)

At some point, and soon by the looks of it, this situation is going to explode. There isn't a single, solitary f**king step taken by anyone, anywhere to address this situation in a decade. That's nothing more than deplorable neglect. But with billions flowing, it's no mystery.

Nobody wants to acknowledge why (utter neglect), nobody wants to put forward any solution, all people are good for now is devolving into violence and/or condemnation. As useful as an arsehole on your forehead.

Let's see if we can burn our way out of this neglect. Maybe if we condemn the reactions enough it'll all go away too.

I wouldn't bet on it though!

Absolutely people are going to die.

Just ask yourself, in terms of all the crises underway, what has been done about ANY of it in the last decade?

And that's why it has reached the point it is now, and that is why it will become worse.

Seriously thats your take from that. So by that logic having tents around your housing area doesn't deminish peoples attitude or the price of a house but IPAS centre does.

The race wars we are currently witnessing in the UK is not because of the difference between an immigrant and the son of an immigrant.

Ok some good points made. Economy is strong but heavily biased towards non diversification. If you take our wealth standings as a ratio of Gdp to national debt we are 89th best in world.

In layman's terms , am I very wealthy if I have 42k in the bank but owe 223 thousand

That social media post was lies but with all the atrocities carried out in the UK in the name of Islam over the last 20 years and daily images of more and more muslim men jumping off boats and running up the beaches, all it takes is one lie to light the touch paper. It's a wonder it hasn't happened sooner. If there's a lesson to be learned from the last few days though, from the UK and the north, it's that violence only plays into the hands of the authorities, who will use the trouble to brand all opposition as far right and bring in increasingly draconian measures to crush anyone who dares to challenge what is happening. The cynic in me would suggest that the likes of Tommy Robinson and his ilk are unwittingly being enabled to cause the chaos that 'justifies' the coming clampdown.

The amount of metrics pointing to disimproving life just keep piling up.

Homeless numbers keep growing year on year, migrant numbers growing year on year, the public expenditure on migrant centres keeps growing, the paypackets are ballooning, the housing crisis is worse every year, the list of miserable projections is long and undeniable.

Who, in their right goddamned mind, thinks this is going to work out?

Who is surprised at the results thus far?

As I said above, name just one single thing done in the last decade that has had any positive effect on these metrics? Just one, that's all, can anybody catch it? It's a negligible question, because otherwise everything wouldn't be measurably worse.

Deplorable neglect and greed, children being left with unsurmountable generational problems going forward, and everyone is supposed to do what exactly, stay quiet and behave? Until when? Until what? There's nothing on the horizon to even cling to.

The best summation of this entire situation, beyond even migration, is that what goes around, comes around, and it's coming barrelling.

The north of England is going to be their north of Ireland.

Add in the ever increasing numbers and absolutely no way of housing them, people can say it's the system not the economic migrants but no system or policy could meet the demand now being created.

The lefties will just move to the coast of England or their cottage in the country while the rest will be left to a balkanized fate

Add in the probability of a Significant middle east war as Israel finally go cleaning out all the attackers of the last 10 months, that will get people excited too.

Danzy

Its only a matter of time before England has a significant Islamic attack, not a Bataclan but something like Beslan with 300 plus dead in school or 9/11.

The left will say turn the other cheek. It's a response to Palestine or the Empire. They were only kids of gammons anyway etc, the response will tear England apart and no amount of calls for solidarity or arming the police to beat the proles down will stop it.

who are these “lefties”? It’s people like you with this lazy way of attempting to identify people that’s adding fuel to the fire of division. When did Irish people start using this left v right sh1te, it’s pathetic.
