Ireland needs a mainstream Eurosceptic, immigration control party.

I think it's about time a mainstream political party which is Eurosceptic and wants to control immigration into this country would emerge, a UKIP type party, at least when they were led by Nigel Farage, we need here, all the current parties support the EU project, and have little interest in tackling mass immigration, which is inflicting this country. When is a party like this ever going to emerge or do we have to keep putting up with the same crap of the last 15-20 years and watch this country disappear before our eyes, surely our loss of sovereignty and identity is a major concern, we need a political party to reflect that, which none of the current ones are.

How's UKIP getting on these days?

Is there ever going to be an end to these f**king threads?

What are Sinn Fein??

Cos it has been such a disaster for us??? Why don't we see how Brexit pans out over the next few years before we jump the gun

Also, have we really lost our sovereignty and identity?

Too many fat snouts in various troughs

Boards needs control over the Eurosceptic, immigration control party threads

If people would read the immigration policy then they might understand more.

IMMIGRATION RULES IN THE EU: WHO DOES WHAT?

The EU and its Member States share the competence in the area of immigration. There are certain common immigration rules valid across the EU, while other aspects are determined by each EU country. This means that immigration rules are not identical in different EU countries and national authorities are best placed to reply to your detailed questions. Residence permit applications must always be made to the authorities of the EU country you plan to move to. There is no European institution handling applications or issuing residence permits on behalf of individual countries.

What does the EU do - further information

Since 1999, the EU has been developing a common immigration policy for Europe.

EU countries have agreed that the EU should have common, or EU-wide, immigration and visa rules that will be valid all across the EU. These are set out in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (2009)

Common measures to date include:

EU-wide rules that allow citizens of countries outside the EU to work or study in an EU country. They cover specifically individuals who are:
Highly-qualified workers (hyperlink)
Researchers (hyperlink)
Students (hyperlink)
Trainees, school pupils or volunteers (hyperlink)
Intra-corporate transferees
Seasonal workers
EU-wide rules that allow citizens of countries outside the EU who are staying legally in an EU country to bring their non-EU family members to live with them and to become long-term residents.
Exceptions to EU-wide rules

EU-wide immigration rules generally apply in 25 out of the EU’s 28 countries. The following exceptions apply:

Denmark does not apply EU-wide rules which relate to immigration, visa and asylum policies.

Ireland and the United Kingdom choose, on a case-by-case basis, whether or not to adopt EU rules on immigration, visa and asylum policies.

For more information on migration policy in the EU, you can visit the Website of the Directorate General for Migration and Home Affairs of the European Commission.

What do Member States do

Each EU country alone decides:

The total number of migrants that can be admitted to the country to look for work;
All final decisions on migrant applications;
Rules on long-term visas – stays for periods longer than three months; and
Conditions to obtain residence and work permits when no EU-wide rules have been adopted.
