Immigration to Ireland - policies, challenges, and solutions *Read OP before posting*

Well then predictability comes into play yet again.

if these politicians form into a blancmange of supporting mass migration, ie the utter loss of mandate, then you'll have the exact results youd expect from an ever widening gulf between them and the people.

Ballooning protest, violence, bloodshed and death.

The strength of the reaction is measured against the stubbornness of the political class. We're certainly on the fringe of violence already, so let's see how far theyll push it.

Regardless of the pain inflicted beforehand, the end point is the pushback against migration. Inevitability.

The government has one overriding mandate, and that is to its own people.

With multiple capacity crises growing daily, a government should, and by all right, pick up the blower to these entities talking about other "obligations" and tell them straight: no more.

If they have to play the pretend game of paying a fee for not accepting migrants (which is akin to a no-giraffe-in-your-house tax), so be it.

Say it, renege on it. Push and incentivise those able to fix mass migration to fix it instead of prolonging this unsustainable situation.

If I had told you that there would be an unprecedented population boom from abroad some years back, would I have been accused of melodramatics? Probably.

If I had pointed out that mass migration will eventually all but wipeout housing stock in the country some years back, would I have been accused of melodramatics? Probably.

If I had pointed out that there wont be enough nurses and guards et al to staff an unprecedented population increase from abroad some years ago (the reduction in staff tied at the hip to unaffordability), would I have been accused of melodramatics? Probably.

If I had predicted that they would close nursing homes and repurpose student accommodation and take over 40% of hotel space to accommodate refugees in the face of deepening crises some years back, would I have been accused of melodramatics? Probably.

If I had predicted a refugee crisis....

If I had predicted protests...

If I had predicted riots....

If I had predicted buildings being burned to prevent more migrants...

I'm missing a lot more besides. i saw a headline a few days ago about someone jumping out of a van with a chainsaw to attack the security of a proposed refugee centre in ballsbridge. I can't comment more as I didn't read into it.

The overall point is that predicting the near future based on extremely wealthy information and intuitive reasoning is a walk in the park.

So, no, none of this is melodramatic.

The mass migration of often times vastly different cultures into a small handful of countries is not normal, no.

Its totally abnormal.

Doubly so when those small few countries suffer from the very expected capacity crises caused by mass migration yet continue apace.

The proposal of the idea alone is inceptionally stupid and about as normal as wearing a hat made of rashers.

The only valid question is why such a moronic and self destructive concept could even be entertained. And the answer lies in the vast money made by the very few off the misery of the very many. It was ever thus.

That said vested interests could instigate a propaganda campaign so effective that they could convince some people to wear rasher hats is only testament to the sheer greed itself.

Totally abnormal.

It's still a totally hare brained concept, regardless.

The likes of hong kong with its famous cage housing is an example of the utter stupidity and greed that lues beneath mass migration.

Nobodys selling the idea of sleeping in a cage to anybody. But there are a few who are rubbing their hands knowing that they'll just force the situation in the back door.

Everyone knows about the multiple bunkrooms in housing here already. 12 to a two bed apartment. Why not a cage, in time? All while some cheer on the very thing bringing those realities to fruition.

Any country that facilitates mass migration, like ireland, is radically stupid. And for every radically stupid idea, there is a radically severe reaction, eventually.

No, what the ukrainian war did was merely accelerate the inevitable.

You think we wouldnt be in the same situation within a few years even without the war? No chance.

And what of the purported claim that we can "expect" 15k refugee migrants every year ad infinitum? And every other flavour of migrant?

The ukrainian war was the equivalent of going to the hospital to have a rash checked out, only for it to reveal you've had skin cancer for years.

I was genuinely expecting better from you.
