Ukrainian refugees in Ireland - Megathread

It’s the same exact cohort that are into this- led by social media likes and virtue signalling- it’s a disease

Our neighbors 2 refugees confirmed themselves they are coming from the region not affected by the war. Nothing going on there. Other members of their family staying at home.

Indeed as I predicted- an NGO bottom feeder https://nascireland.org/staff/fiona-hurley

Not that we needed mystic Meg around the place

That’s because SF are all for it- likely the government aren’t taking in enough for Mary Lou

God bless your innocence and optimism!!

The lack of housing or hotels at least will hopefully stop this kind of arrivals . If you come out of a basement in Mariopol then you will take what you get .But anyone coming in the hope of housing etc will think twice now before coming .I see alot of posts now on Facebook seeking housing and being told by Irish and Ukrainian posters that we are full .

Not one Ukrainian story in sindo's front page. Considering that capacity is full you would think it should be front page news.

They are all relatives. The neighbor is living here for a long time and Ukrainian herself. So once the door has opened, they joined here immediately. I guess she getting 400 p/m to keep her close relatives safe!!! I am aware many old immigrants from Ukraine did same thing - their mothers, sisters immediately came to Ireland. So families joined now at very bargain

I see Michael Martin now blaming the UK"s NEW asylum seeker policy on this debacle and Robert Troy (FF) Complaining about over crowding in a hotel in Longford.

These people on a different plant.

Why’s that- the U.K. have (quite rightly) tightened up their approach and we are the next soft touch in the welfare shoppers radar?

As this whole debacle appears to be gaining some momentum and generating media coverage.. even Claire Byrne has covered varying aspects of it this morning.. I wonder if it will encourage those previously reluctant public representatives/opposition parties to raise their voice without fear of being labelled 'racist'.

Even if they only use it as an 'stick' to beat our government leaders with. At least it might force those at the top to account for their atrocious decision making and rethink any future plans.

Although I fear too much damage is already done and the consequences irreversible.

Its happening behind the scenes. Look at the helping Ukrianinans in Ireland on Facebook pages, you'll see lots of comments from bogus accounts telling people they will get "sorted" for accomodation.

Do gooders are also adding to this fiasco, by offering rooms when the state can't cope, they are adding to the drain on public services.

Enough is enough. Stop enticing them over and tell them Ireland cant help you here.

Just because a flag waver has a spare room does not mean they should be allowed in. As we the tax payer has to foot the bill, while the flag waver will be getting 400 quid.

Call that the double paddy screw.

So just to clarify. The UK's NEW policy has barely got off the ground, they not even succeeded in sending anyone to Rwanda (a policy I think vile incidently)

And now focus beginning to be directed at the farce in Ireland, MM blaming the Debacle that being going on here for MONTHS.

Also just to reiterate, that majority of Asylum seekers caught up in the current debacle were actually invited here by the previous government, they are NOT avoiding UK, they were invited by a previous Irish Government, who seemed to have forgotten this fact.

MM is yet again up to his pass the Buck antics.
