Time for a zero refugee policy? - *Read OP for mod warnings and threadbans - updated 11/5/24*

At any stage where they publicize an "acute shortage" of accommodation, a few days later they come out and say they have "managed" to locate beds, and that they are throwing more millions at the problem. They are so feckless and incompetent they can't even keep to a single narrative. So the current message is; yeah, things are tight, but hey, we're desperate to have you, and beds are on their way---so keep coming lads!

I’m honestly questioning the sanity of this administration. Any logical person knows that when they’ve created a mess, they move into damage limitation mode to mitigate against further negative outcomes. First do no harm and all that.

Perversely, this government is leaning into their own incompetence, intensifying the manufactured crisis that one of their own, engendered. All of this is of course financed by the toil of the Irish taxpayers. This means that the number of ‘lads’, and let’s be clear, IPAs are mostly men, will continue arriving in this country at inordinately high levels.

The lunatics truly are running the asylum in this country, cheerlead by their band of merry assistants in the media and NGO complex.

This isn’t a thread about a zero foreign nationals policy.

What seems to be an even stronger force that motivates their delusions is the inability to admit that their "stupid, unhinged" political rivals were actually right all long. Most of them are literally incapable of it. They are smart, wise and worldly people in their minds, and they could never lower themselves to share a view with the plebs. Believing in endless immigration is "sophisticated" position, one that must be held tightly no matter what reality says. They are essentially willing to burn society to ground in the name of protecting their egos and their status.

Again, that's a conversation to take up with the Swedish state department, not I.

Nor do I find it a better solution for example, the USA deported MAVNI veterans (noncitizens serving in crucial roles like interpreters, specialisms, etc), sometimes for single convictions. https://immigrationimpact.com/2021/07/08/deported-immigrant-veterans-biden/

Not being an expert or even all that familiar with Swedish law and custom I can only suggest they're not considering deporting the reportedly Iranian national.

Thats a shocking video doing the rounds over on Twitter where a girl is flattened on the street by two black guys in Limerick, you can hear them say there are too many crackers in the place just before one of them hits her.

At some point in the future. The EU will be forced to rewrite its policy on immigration. Probably when it’s all too late of course.

Long term this …it’s unsustainable.

we especially can’t have countries like ourselves here, with a population getting towards 10 million people.

look, Africa is in a total mess, also there are 8 recognised applications from other countries to join the EU…Turkey, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Albania, Moldova, Ukraine, Bosnia and Herzegovina, also Kosovo and Georgia…are now added to that mix as ‘potential’ candidates.

The vast majority of Turkey is formally in Western Asia..

In the 80’s Morocco asked to join, Morocco ! it’s in Africa…They’ll probably hit us with another application now, seeing as NO is not in the EU box of words." Their first application was rejected, why though, did it even get past reception ? YOU ARE NOT IN EUROPE ! What next ?

Syria ? Sudan ? Egypt ? Kuwait ? Canada ? Belize ?

Come on.

Locals in a small town are setting up a safety patrol over the recent attempted assault of a women.

Imagine people who lived in the town all there life are now having to worry about the welfare of women in the town.

This unfortunately is only the beginning of what we see in other countries.

The government should be held accountable for this ridiculous refugee policy.

They will be held accountable in the way all governments are, at the next general election.

Then you and others of like mind will have the opportunity to vote out the current government and elect parties that advocate more restrictive policies on refugees and immigration, if you can find any credible ones...

Absolutely! The video would’ve had it all: toxic masculinity, gender-based violence, racism. Not to mention the danger of knocking someone out in front of an oncoming bus... It would be front page news, discussed on all the current affairs shows, with many NGOs having their say on it.
