Tents knifed

We need to have zero tolerance for tents in the city.

Whole situation is a complete and utter disaster.

Only going to get worse from here sadly.

I find it strange that those causing the most trouble, and instigating violence are the one "protesting" against immigrants because they think immiugrants are going to cause trouble.

Do these fucwits actually have a brain cell or are they simply devoid of even the most basic intelligence.

I note also that almost all those arrested and charge in the coolock scuffles were in social housing and most were not in any employment.

Pure scum

FDI does not care one jot for this kind of thing. They care about whether they can get workers and whether they can get tax breaks and whether they can get enough electricity supply for their facilities.

…well actually yes, it would be a good start, housing is in fact one of the main reasons why we re now experiencing immigration related problems, it was noted for well over a decade now that we were running out of housing, but yet our governments have done little or nothing to address this reality, and the fact we have a quickly aging population, inward migration is in fact one of the quickest ways of addressing major issues such as housing and health care, as we probably wont be getting a whole pile of 40+ year old irish folks rushing into construction to get building, but we might just be able to get some 20+ year old migrants into it, and into our health system!

…they could help, people can be retrained….

its clearly obvious we have an extremely serious aging population problem, if we dont do anything about it soon, we simply will never be able to resolve our most serious issues, particularly with an aging work force, its clearly obvious our pension and welfare systems will simply not be able to also deal with this aging population, which could potentially lead to pension fund collapse, if we dont do something immediately about this profile…..

you should have a look at some of Europe's other cities Paris Madrid Rome etc, tented shanty towns are the new norm the world over

we are in a era of social economic and civil regression . simply put civilization has slowed its forward progress and started going in the other direction in some places

…again, no it doesnt, are you willing to go out onto building sites for the rest of your working life to do this?

In a country dealing not only with the housing crisis but the problems associated with poor building practices (pyrite etc) any acceleration in construction also has to be managed properly.

We're already doing a bad job of providing for our own citizens, now we're doing an even worse job providing for people arriving into the country. All the while the government responsible are using the "far right" bogeyman as a scapegoat to keep the heat off of themselves creating a vicious circle of inertia relating to construction of housing and rhetoric about perceived enemies. Nothing is ever solved but blame is dished out in spades and it never lands at the feet of the establishment that have crated the problems in the first place.

Asylum Seekers will not be "paying for our pensions."

I really wish people would stop trotting out this canard.

All thanks to our lax overly liberal criminal justice system.

Scumbags that should be locked up are walking our streets, usually they focus their behaviour on individuals and it gets ignored, when it's en masse in a riot situation everyone is so shocked by the fact it could happen yet they never join the dots on how letting sh1t bags do whatever they like could possibly have negative outcomes.

... and maybe the reason so many politicians are getting out of the game as soon as they can?

That's what raw numbers don't tell us, and we all like to pretend that everyone is great and equal.

That 30,000 lost over? They're educated, skilled, working people, they work 2 to a couple and they integrate and pay their taxes. They came to Ireland and within days were up and running in full time jobs, and filled in sectors like construction that we are so badly short on. We've been spoiled with great migration over the years. Now we're losing them, and other EU expats, and indeed Irish people too. Educated skilled workers when fed up with the country will leave.

We replace that with non EU migration, they're not at the level of education or skilled to fill in Ireland's very much tertiary sector economy and they're quite work shy at that.

How does increasing our welfare and housing dependent population in Ireland today increase our likelihood of dealing appropriately with our future pension time bomb?

Same thing happened in Ringsend Park, near playgrounds, schools, creches, and various sports pitches.

The locals were 100% right.

Im just happy all this sh!t is happening in someone elses backyard. What a horrible situation to be in, for all involved.

This certainly didn't help - https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/asylum-seekers-will-get-keys-to-their-own-homes-and-will-be-able-to-work-policy-to-end-direct-provision-revealed/40133273.html

The logic is that a lot of the increasing population will be working and paying taxes. Other countries have done it too. Didn't Germany let in millions of folk about 20 years ago, mostly Turks, as they needed to bump up their population?

Of course there will be a certain number who cobtribute little and be a drain on the state, but you'd hope that would be small compared to those working and contributing.

Incredible. I need to take time off work, so I can go to the bank and pay their mortgage. Hi, Mr. Bank Manager I'd like to get a mortgage for an unspecified number of homes please. Just put it on the national debt. Oh, and make sure the heat pump matches the Tesla.

Can you imagine how much this is shared down in poor regions of Algeria, how many more people did we motivate to cross over, how much human trafficking did we promote, how much further misery did that trafficking finance, how many people died on the way after reading this pile of lies, false promises. And the survivors? they get to sit in tents. And the benevolent ever so kind left has a plan for them - cheap labor.
