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

When is multi-culturalism spreading to the Middle East, Africa, Asia and the Americas? Seems like it's all up to western Europe these last 60 years.

Which society's have advanced in that time?

Even Saudi Arabia has had to make itself just about tolerable for foreigners, so they can develop the way Qatar and UAE are doing.

One of the big things for me and immigration is to have a high bar for entry. Every country, culture etc across the world have fantastic, hard working, great people and they all also have the reverse. In order to protect the vulnerable in our society such as the disabled who rely on us having a strong welfare system we need to have a high bar set for immigration so we don’t end up with increasing levels of welfare dependency. I think we already are seen as a soft target and this will become increasingly apparent as time goes on. We saw in other EU countries that certain groups have a higher social welfare dependency and we did nothing to prevent same happening here. Anyone who said we should put restrictions on immigration were told they were racist and for years that worked people said nothing so they wouldn’t be accused of being racist. There are other countries out there who have strict criteria for work visas so only take people whose skills they actually need and those people are expected to support themselves.

As far as I am aware EU citizens are expected to work when they move countries. I think you can get booted out if you don’t find work. Obviously if you have lived in Ireland for years and are between jobs then you are treated like an Irish citizen which is only right.

I don’t understand why we take in people from safe countries as asylum seekers. It appears to be a loophole tbh. There are people genuinely fleeing persecution and war. Resources should be going to them. I know many posters tell us we are a rich country, but we are also an incredibly indebted country.

Seriously?

Sure did you not hear? Apparently Pearse was a Fascist by today's standards.

London is one of the most multicultural city's on earth and one of the crime capitals of the earth. I think they still do ok with tourism

It doesn't really matter how racist they were at this point. That kind of thing is seen as very backward now, like a lot of attitudes people had in the past.
