The Government spreading misinformation on immigration

An other one.

We need a 'I'm Terrified of Foreign People' sub forum.

He should have resigned. It was a barefaced lie. Pure gaslighting.

I don't think the government's handling of asylum in the last two years can be described as anything other than disastrous.

No, not migrant workers. No, not Ukrainian refugees. Specifically asylum applications. I shouldn't have to specify that I am talking about asylum applications when I am talking about asylum applications but for some reason when anyone mentions asylum applications the government lies by saying 'we need foreign nurses' or something else entirely unrelated.

Why do you think asylum applications can't take up jobs in Ireland if they are successful?

You see now you are jumping all over Europe to try back up a claim that was wrong in the first place, we have seen what has gone wrong in other countries and should look at them. Burning down potential buildings for these people and running around with little groups of racists abusing people is not working either.

"why should we accommodate everybody chancing their arm at taxpayers expense?" we have plenty of irish who are doing exactly this for many years, should we do something abotu them as well?

"we are gettng lots from there at the moment every week"? anything to back this up? how many?

The fact Roderic is still in a job after 20 children going missing from statecare under his watch tells you all you need to know.

There is zero accountability anymore in this country and it’s quickly going down the gutter.

Because Irish people are on the dole long term we should let everybody come from all over the world and do that too? Amazing argument that, limitless magic money for all.

Jumping all over Europe might be a good idea no, Sweden in particular is the perfect example of what happens when you don't manage this properly and just let everybody in over years and put huge numbers in areas with no idea how to sustain them. But no that's not relevant in any way.

We have seen what's wrong in other countries and we are copying what they did at the moment, not seeing how that's learning anything or doing things differently? What claim was wrong in the first place by the way? Asylum seekers in general are an overall cost to the economy rather than a benefit in basically every study ever done on the subject.

21 from Somalia that week, about the same most weeks. And yes, they are mostly unemployed all across Europe

It wasn't an argument, it was a point.

How are we copying what they did in Europe?

20 last week, in a population of 5m.

Seriously people, is this the "great replacement" we have all the fruit loops going on about

The government should lock down the process, if a person has a valid reason they should be accepted, if not they should be rejected. We shoudl also stop the amount of useless waffle been posted across the web byt people who haven't a f**king clue what they are talking about

Speaking of misinformation, I do feel leaving out this piece on the article is quite an interesting approach. People in glass houses etc etc.

“The advice referred to was provided significantly in advance of the final wording of the referendum text being agreed late last year.”

Mr O’Gorman’s spokesman said: “The Minister’s remarks reflect advice from the Attorney General.”

Russia ?

I believe the situation is “ I’m terrified people will think we don’t like foreigners “.
This country can’t handle the amount of people that the government are taking in regardless of right or left politics.
It is just stupidity.

Asylum seekers arriving with no passports on planes and across the NI border is pretty unregulated migration.

What could be more unregulated than illegally crossing the border and destroying your documents and then abusing the asylum system?

So IPA's flooding over the border from Northern Ireland, large numbers of whom have no documentation, to come here to live in tents is what you describe as regulated immigration?

Lets just speculate that anyone who isn't thrilled about it is most likely a racist.

No surprise to see the usual suspects crying about people exercising their freedom of speech. It's amazing certain sections on the political spectrum always talk about freedom of speech yet are always the first ones who want to remove when that speech is in opposition to their beliefs.

Are you not part of a "certain section" for your "political spectrum"?

He did lie. That's it. Are you here to argue otherwise?

I'm part of certain section of a political spectrum because I assume government ministers shouldn't blatantly lie?

I expect better.

He needed Green party votes, only way O'Gorman was going was willingly.

People say the green party is on a minority and can't control things or push anything but they can collapse the government as easily as either FF or FG can.

We do have 30,000 asylum seekers this year though. So it might not be unregulated, but it is collapsing.

How often do you see Big foot?
