What are your views on Multiculturalism in Ireland? - Threadbanned User List in OP

Taoiseach 30 per cent Ukrainian stat sufficient evidence for you? Or do you know better than him with your superior access to information?

The debt crunch in the US, and in the EU is likely to bring about some of that. Governments can't continue bailing them out, covering their interest payments. Also with China seriously struggling economically/socially, we're going to see some ripples soon affecting our MNCs.

However, I doubt it will matter to our politicians.. the push on immigration will continue regardless of the actual state of the economy. After all, we'll see Irish people leave for other countries, only to be replaced by the immigrant population here in Ireland

This is obviously the minimum they should have done years ago to unclog the system, severly doubt they will actually deport anyone though, people know how to play the system either get someone to do a petition for you to say and get a modest amount of signatures or go on a short hunger strike and instantly get leave to remain.

"In addition, the Department of Justice is establishing an accelerated decision-making process for IP applicants from safe countries of origin. This means that people arriving from countries such as Georgia will have their applications fast-tracked, which is expected to cut the processing time from two years to between two and three months.

It is also understood that enforcing stricter controls on arrival and cracking down on people using fake documentation is under Government consideration, as is expanding the number of countries that require visas for entry into Ireland."

The related NGOs have access to legal counsel who will tie the operation up in knots. It's the reason the appeals process stuttered to a halt, with so many rounds of appeals PP being implemented. The legal system in this country feeds off this industry, and they'll do the same over deportations. And then, there's the marketing companies, who will advise them on how to garner public support.

Nah. It's not going to happen. We've allowed too many systems to be created who profit from these groups, and without their removal, deportations won't happen. Oh, maybe a few dozen, but the majority will be blocked for years, probably long enough for them to gain rights to apply for citizenship, effectively bypassing the measures which would have seen them deported.

The only way we're going to see any enforcement of deportations, is when the NGOs are downsized, their funding restricted, the legal system investigated, and some politicians willing to champion the fight against the existing process.

So. Never.

Easily enough actually. Appearances are deceiving. S.Africa is back to their own tricks, except with the Black population pulling the discriminatory strings.

Ethnic strife/violence is common enough. LGBTQ are under real threat within the society, and by the risks coming from authorities, even while the law supposedly protects them but ultimately fails to do. S.Africa is quickly returning to the corrupt and brutal nation it was before. It's only a stable nation if you belong to the approved Tribal groups.. if you're not.. then, you're going to face discrimination at all levels, with the real risk of violence extended to you. There's little interest in the media, at highlighting what's been happening in S.Africa because it's Black people doing it all... kinda embarrassing to scream racism when your victims become the bullies.

Asylum is given for many reasons.. not just because of war. If someone can prove that their lives were threatened by remaining in a nation, then they can claim Asylum elsewhere. In fairness, that was the original reason for Asylum, with war being added much later.

The point was about SA, and why someone might claim Asylum here.

I didn't say that I approved of giving Asylum in such cases. Most people like that have the means to travel/live elsewhere as economic migrants, without the need for the Irish State to fund their stay here.

TBH I do think Asylum should be drastically scaled down, giving aid to those who genuinely need it. Not to those who have other options, which are easily achieved..

They already are, and already have. There have been white SA who claimed Asylum for LGBTQ persecution in SA, and ended up in Ireland. I remember someone posted links to such a person on this thread months ago.

Asylum is not judged by race/ethnicity. Nor whether someone comes from a "civilised" country. An American could claim asylum here, and if they meet the requirements, be granted it.
