Ukrainian refugees in Ireland - Megathread

Bingo, this is the only get rich quick scheme left in town. It may get bumpy for ordinary paddy as a result, but sod them.

Claimed yesterday that paddies were saying the polish were lazy when they came over 20 years. I said that it was the opposite n were thought of as good workers.

He then claimed the search button was broken so he couldn't post any links to prove it. So he just started calling out xenophobia etc. It's laughable at this stage! These lads have literally no counter argument, nothing - bless them!

Nope. I said the usual feckless malcontents were spouting the same lies and dribble that is now being spread about Ukrainians.

From my personal experience and from my experience of remembering threads on here.

Now have you offered any evidence for your opinion. Lets say a counter argument?

That would be no wouldn't it? moronic accusations and deflection. Bless.

Anyway pub awaits, have a good one. 👍️

Yeah , have a good one. Maybe the internet will be back working for u tomorrow! I wouldn't bet on it tho!

Cool story, bro.

So you agree she didn't have "a cushy EU job" from 2017, then. Good.

I can see yet another thread been closed, it's gone way off line, your feeding into what the lads want, rile you up and get you band or take the reason why so many people are pi*sed off and say your racist xenophobic etc, what is happening here needs to be talked about, don't let yourselves down, the ignore button works wonders, on a side note, my mother went into a care home with fair deal scheme three years ago, we got a letter from revenue on Wednesday looking for if the house was empty, who's living there if so are they related and some more personal questions..... jaysus i know it's a fair deal scheme she singed up to but the woman paid her mortgage and owns the house( i know i know not fully now), but its a fair coincidence all of a sudden their enquiring about the house. One of my nieces is living there atm.

I lol'ed.

And yeah, Hogan actually did get a "cushy EU job". Noone else on that list posted a page back apart from Mairead McGuinness - the rest were actually just a handful of Irish MEPs and TDs.

Who else? Peter Sutherland. McCreevy. Six or seven others, since 1970-something.

I wonder what state Abbotstown will be left in ? Neither built or designed to have fuçking people living in it ffs

all our elite athletes and others who put in mammoth efforts to represent themselves, their ability and this country can get to fûck… apparently…bet it’s not a measure for a few week, 6 weeks as is being marketed….

our hotels, college accommodation, sporting facilities, fitness facilities… our housing, healthcare services, public transport, cash.. all the above free gratis….anything else they’d like ? Are we short changing them ?

Again, what "forever jobs" would these be? We've had what, 11 or 12 commissioners. In 50 years.

This is not the amazing 'gotcha' talking point that your telegram group thinks it is.

It is broken (or not as good as it used to be) in that I don't think there's a quick and easy way any more to find/search what other stuff accounts have posted up in the past. That is always interesting.

Am a long time mainly reader of this site and if we're just referring to that rather than "the Irish" (or the "paddies" as we seem to be regularly referred to here!), was definitely many threads giving out about large influx of people from EU accession states. Nothing new under the sun.

Site (or this forums) demographic has changed alot from back then (2000s) though, I mean most of list of CAIMHO threads off the front page right now is some variant of a right wing cri de coeur + wail of despair into the void isn't it?
