On April 27th, 2019, just over five years ago, the Irish Examiner published the following figures:
The Irish authorities had the lowest rate of refusal to applications from asylum seekers of any of the EU’s 28 member states last year.
Only 15% of first-time decisions on asylum applications in Ireland were rejected, compared to an EU average of 63%.
A total of 1,275 asylum seekers in the Republic were granted protection last year, of which 815 were awarded refugee status.
On November 22nd of that same year, 2019, the Journal reported a splurge in spending on Asylum accommodations:
THE GOVERNMENT IS looking at housing thousands of asylum seekers in new Direct Provision centres in the coming years.
The numbers of people arriving to seek international protection in the state has risen 50% in the past year, according to the Department of Justice, and more centres are needed to prevent further applicants being housed in emergency accommodation.
The cost of the new centres will be in excess of €320 million in the coming years, the Irish Times reported this morning.
And, though self-praise might be gauche, on November 19th of that same year, 2019, yours truly wrote, emphasis added:
Government policy on immigration as it stands leaves people here for years, in limbo, with no ability to contribute to society or improve their own lives. It doesn’t prioritise those who can help the country. It doesn’t speedily remove those who cannot help the country, or who are a threat to it. And not one single member of the political class has the political skill to talk about it without making an utter balls of it.
It won’t end well.
All of this was five years ago, now. I’d gently suggest that my prediction that it wouldn’t end well has stood the test of time reasonably well.
The point I’m making here is not that I am some sort of genius with a special gift for foresight – were that true, I’d not be writing for Gript, but living a life of the most sinful decadence on a Caribbean island funded by my timely investments in bitcoin.
The point is that you didn’t have to be. You just had to be a relatively observant person with the basic willingness to state what was blindingly obvious to anybody with eyes: That the Irish state was running an immigration system with no particular rules, no clear objective, and no limits or controls of any kind on who could come here and stay here indefinitely. This was a mess waiting to happen, and a mess that duly has happened, in slow motion, with our leaders looking right at it and unable to figure out a single thing to say about it until it was too late.
Like most Irish policy failures, this one has a particular characteristic: The assumption that it would be all right on the night, and that those who were raising hard questions about it were motivated by something vaguely anti-Irish. Or, as one-time future star Imelda May put it in one of her interminable RTE appearances, “you don’t get to be Irish and racist”. Racism was never defined, but we all knew – and know – what it means. Asking questions that made RTE uncomfortable. Questioning immigration.
It is abundantly clear how the current mess happened: The Irish Government started with the proposition that Ireland is a good country and that immigration is a thing that good countries are for. That was both the beginning, and the end, of the policy: Immigration good, questioning immigration bad and anti-Irish.
Because Ireland was good, and because there’s a certain hopeful naivete to Irish politics which assumes that doing “good” will always prove the right thing, the policy really needed nothing more than to accommodate the thousands of people coming here and assume that everything would work out grand in the future. That might sound simplistic, but that’s because that’s exactly what Irish policy usually is: Simplistic.
In that 2019 piece, I argued that one of the big problems is the relatively low intellectual capacity of the average Irish politician. This was around the time of the UK election of that year, and I wrote the following:
Boris Johnson may well end up losing the British General election – but if he does, it won’t be because of his policy on immigration. For the last ten days he has hammered the opposition Labour Party for favouring an open immigration policy, with no restrictions on freedom of movement, while saying that if re-elected, and after Brexit, he will implement an “Australian style points-based immigration system”.
He has pointed out that a political party that says it wants to fund a health service, or housing, or any other public service must know how many people will need to use those services, and that unlimited immigration puts huge strain on public services. It’s a commonsense argument, one that people instinctively understand.
This was a basic, simple argument, I said, that anyone with a brain cell could make or understand. But Irish politicians thought they – and Ireland – were special, and that the attitudes of working class people in Northern England to uncontrolled immigration would not be the same, ultimately, as those of people in working-class Cork or Limerick. I went on:
“There are a couple of basic facts about immigration in Ireland that are completely obvious to anybody with a brain, and yet no politician seems able to articulate them without managing to say something inartful at best, or outright racist at worst:
The more people that we have in Ireland, the more homes we need, the more school places we need, the more hospital beds we need, and the greater the demand on our national infrastructure.
Those immigrants who do come here, if they eventually are to make the kind of lives here that we would hope for them, need to be equipped to thrive in our country, with language skills, an understanding of our laws and customs, and the education levels to get a job and hold it.
If you are not an Irish, or an EU citizen, there is no absolute right to live in Ireland, and the country is within its rights to deny you entry or remove you from the country.”
In a few weeks time, Ireland is set to vote in local and European elections. In the campaign for those elections, candidates for the Governing parties and much of the opposition will make specious and dishonest arguments along the lines that the recent crisis is, well, recent, and that nobody could have seen it coming, and that Ukraine is to blame.
But remember: All the quotes in this piece, from me and others, are from 2019. Long before the Ukraine War started – three years before, in fact.
One of the basic jobs of elected officials is to see things coming. There are some candidates running in these elections who did see this problem coming, and warned about it. Peter Casey and Niall Boylan, for example, as well as candidates for some of the smaller parties.
And then there are candidates who did not see any of this coming, despite the fact that it was blindingly obvious five years ago.
The question is a simple one: Who do you trust to see the issues that will matter in five years time?

The most damaging assumption underlying our immigration and asylum policies is that more low paid employment is a good thing.
Overemployment is driving our youth abroad, and impoverishing those who remain as surely as unemployment did in the 80s.
The Regime were well aware of the dangers of lax Border controls.
Their hidden Agenda was plainly Plantation and Ethnic Cleansing of the Irish Nation. to destroy our cohesive nationalist State. A divide,weaken, conquer and loot strategy.
The looting of these modern invaders was facilitated by Regime directives of our Housing stock. allocation,Health system ,Education and Welfare,security and safety of its Citizens.
This was never about importing cheap labour.
The quality of the illegal undocumented imports were such ,most of them were unemployable,with poor English speaking and no Techncial abilities to make a contribution to society or a modern economy..
Ireland advertised worldwide for the scum and criminals of the 3rd world , to come to Ireland and live a subsidised Welfare life with free accomodation,food, money and Medical care, paid for by the hard working Irish Taxpayer.
Mass Migration was weaponised to destroy Ireland and its People.
The Gombeen property owners made out like bandits from this People Traffficking, but the real beneficaries are further up the food chain. who have Political .Power. and control agendas, that is the EU, UN and WEF.
Indeed.
As well as driving our youth abroad and while we’re speaking of seeing things coming, candidates need to see what’s coming in the short term but also 10-30+ years.
IPA’s + family reunification @ current rates of 20 thousand a year (conservative estimate) mean 15-24 year old cohort Ethnic Irish becoming a minority within 10 years*

“more low paid employment is a good thing”
It’s obviously a bad thing, as you note. The problem is that the money system (fiat) demands it. It demands lower and lower paid workers, lower and lower quality ingredients, lower and lower sized packaging, and so on.
If we remember during Covid, Keeling’s were singled out for breaking rules as they imported cheap labour. The sad thing is that the monetary forces of this current system requires the likes of Keeling’s to look for the cheapest labour they can find, otherwise they will be put out of business by larger competitors who work with the system and cut costs everywhere they can.
As sad as it sounds, the only way to stop this, is to get rid of fiat money.
It’s obviously not a good thing but where have you ever heard overemployment being categorised as a problem.
The very idea that the government or their cheerleaders should have any say as to whether there is too much employment is in itself, a problem.
Central planning led to the collapse of the USSR. It will do the same here if given enough time.
This is the problem with a nanny state with too much money from Corporation Taxes from multinationals. If the US economy collapsed (their debt is closing in on $35 trillion), we would see riots on our streets because there would be no money for all the freebies and for a flood of economic migrants and asylum seekers. As it is, these companies are exploiting many employees – just compare their salaries with the equivalent jobs in the same companies in the US.
The tiny increase in temperature over the past century does not warrant the climate alarmism. However, there are many signs that do warrant great concern over the US economy and its collapse would have on the world. Our leaders seem singularly disinterested about taking precautions through wise use of income and saving before the storm.
The “Worst Market Crash Since 1929” Is Rapidly Approaching and the Fed Doesn’t Know Which Way to Go
https://thelibertydaily.com/our-deer-headlights-moment-worst-market-crash-since/
The economic migrants will find greener pastures if and when the Irish economy collapses owing to a US collapse. They all will then move to places where there is growth and opportunities, like the oil rich gulf, or India or China or Indonesia. Why did most immigrants choose Germany or UK or Sweden or Netherlands? It is because those were the places where there was high economic growth, jobs and thriving businesses before the US imposed Ukraine war started in 2022. Now, with the US imposed European sanctions on Russia and China, along with the destruction of Europe’s energy security through nordstream pipe bombings, Europe is beginning to de-industrialize, and all economies are going to stagnate, if not crumble. Hence, within a few years, most of those immigrants who arrived in the last decade are going to move elsewhere, espcially those who arrived from outside Europe, because the governments will finally reach a position where they cannot fund the freebies and welfare anymore. Right now, the politicians and elites are believing their own lies and propagandas, and is failing to foresee imminent collaspse in both economy as well as military. Only solution is to mend ties with Russia, China and India, freeze the war in Ukraine, build back the pipelines, cancel the sanctions regime, sign new trade deals with all the emerging economies, stop all freebies and unnecessary social welfare schemes and provide only the basic support to those who are in real need, like the elderly and the sick. Revamp the immigration system, and stop accepting refugees who are not willing to work. Bring in only the highly skilled professionals in need, and offer them only permanent residence, not citizenship. Citizenship shall be offered only to those who are willing to invest in the country, a considerable amount of money. Instead, if you open the gates to everyone from around the world, the nation would be destroyed within a few years. The concept of a ‘nation state’ is based on shared values, history, traditions and culture. A totally multi cultural society will not survive when economic and social hardships come. At least, 80-90% of the population must share those commonalities for a successul nation state to thrive. Policies on immigration and naturalization must reflect these principles. You can bring in temporary labour on work visas of short durations that can be extended if required, pay them decent wages, but never allow semi-skilled or those not in skill shortage lists to stay back, immigrate or naturalize. That is how they do in the Gulf. The entire UAE, Qatar, Oman, Saudi etc have been built by the hardwork of Asians. There have been complaints about poor working conditions, but still, people flock there to find work and earn a living, supporting the economies of those countries as well as their home countries through monthly remittances. Immigration, if utilized efficiently, boosts the local economy and living standards of everybody, but if done based on emotions and ideological stands, will ruin the nations.
From the article:
” Government policy on immigration as it stands leaves people here for years, in limbo, with no ability to contribute to society or improve their own lives. It doesn’t prioritise those who can help the country. ”
Poor John. He believes ‘there’s Gold in them there Direct Provision Centres’ if only we looked hard enough for it.
Re your comment:
I agree that many immigrants who arrived in Ireland in the last decade will leave for greener pastures when the going gets tough. We’ll be left with the dregs. They won’t be going anywhere unless forcibly removed. We are going to have to stop accepting all refugees for a while until we’ve returned to sanity and stability – a Zero asylum policy.
You’ve made some good points, many which should be obvious to our political and Media class, but strangely, discussion of these things is verboten. The one thing I’d differ would be regarding citizenship and Naturalisation. I don’t agree that citizenship should be given for investment. Naturalisation and citizenship granted after marrying and living with a native Irish spouse for many years (maybe 30 years minimum). We are not the USA. Ireland is our Nation State, our Homeland and full citizenship should not simply be up for sale. Maybe some provisional form of citizenship or a granting of limited citizenship rights – excl. voting/political campaigning and some other sensitive areas like policing/security roles. Invest a ton of money in enterprise, and you can possibly avail of this. Invest a ton of money in real estate, No cigar.
Ireland, our Nation State, is not simply based on ” The concept of a ‘nation state’ is based on shared values, history, traditions and culture. Ireland is our ethnic Homeland, the homeland of us, the Gaels. While we some of Anglo/Norman descent it doesn’t take away from this fact. ”
What you are describing is a British or American interpretation of the Nation State or one of the other multi-ethnic countries. The Gulf countries have a similar concept to us.
Immigration, if there is to be any, should be allowed only under the Irish First Principle. That is, Irish people should not be disadvantaged or de-prioritised in favour of foreigners within out own country, whether for work, education, medical care, accommodation and more. A foreigner should not be able to arrive in a village or town with a stack of cash and outcompete locals to take over shops/commercial buildings to open a ‘business’. Neither should foreigners be able to buy up property, residential or commercial, outcompeting locals, and then rent it back to locals.
John – you’re right – “hitting the nail on the head” – when it comes to mass immigration – doesn’t require membership of Mensa (an organisation that would probably say “Nil” to my application !). One “specific” I would like to point out – and I’d be interested in the insights of any Gript reader in the “building trade” on this – is that it looks like (more) foreign construction workers will be needed if the annual house building targets are to be met. Where are these foreign workers going to live for the duration of their time in this country building the houses ? I don’t think I need to elaborate on the difficulties they’ll face – high rents, etc. Anyone putting himself/herself up for election will have to grapple with that issue. The phrase “perfect storm” is much overused – but I think (and I could be exaggerating the difficulties) the “combo” of a continued influx of completely unskilled migrants and the need to be able to accommodate foreign skilled construction workers “will do for this country” – a “perfect storm” in other words.
It’s also making it harder on builders here, some times builders have to go to the other side of Ireland and need digs to stay in as they can only go home on the weekends, but now it’s getting harder for a contractor to take on a job because there’s no b and bs or hotels with availability.
Have you ever seen a person with a high melanin skin content on a building site in Ireland ?.
Sure Paddy will do the work and pay taxes to support the idle guests
A lot of the building workers in Dublin seem to be Irishmen from North of the Border who actually commute in vans from place like Armagh.
My god. Black protestants from the North of Ireland. Sure where will it all end.
When the government gives out freebies and welfare, why should those folk find work? This is where Ireland needs to learn from countries like UAE, where they bring labour from all the ‘high melanin’ countries, give them all kinds of jobs, but zero freebies, put them in labour camps with bunk beds and large central kitchens, provide bi-annual 2 month vacation to visit home country, charge them zero income tax but much better wages than what they would get for similar jobs in their home countries and give out zero freebies. It is a win-win situation for both parties. No one will stay back beyond work visa period, and everyone will work while they are present as they can’t survive without job. No one is allowed to stay without work-visa for more than 3 months, but allowed to enter the country in search of employment on visitor visa, for a maximum stay of 3 months. The opportunity to gain citizenship or permanent residence is offered only to those highly skilled workers with considerable experience, like engineers, doctors, technologists, professors and scientists, as well as high net worth individuals who are willing to invest in local institutions, a considerable amount of money. This way, you provide decently paid employment to all those unlucky folks from poorer countries, in a way that it does not destroy your own country, but help build its infrastrucuture, maintain the institutions efficiently and make the local businesses profitable. Immigration is good when used properly. All the great nations and city states that were successful and wealthy in history had flourished when people from different countries met, settled and worked together. On the other hand, all hyper socialist states who dished out freebies have only collapsed.
Certainly some of those approaches (the approaches taken by UAE, for example) are worth considering. One thing we would have to be mindful of – in adopting such approaches – is that places like the UAE “don’t mess around” if you don’t abide by their rules – in other words, we would have to change our culture – and have a “zero tolerance” approach to anyone who overstayed after their visa expired.
Thank you John great summary And I will vote for anyone who implements an Australian or Danish immigration system. I’m sick to death of these dangerous inept amadans running our country. I wouldnt give them a job spreading horse manure on my roses. Vote them out the first chance you get. Remember your life really does depend on it!!!
The Australian system is one where they stopped illegal immigrants arriving on boats and opened up to mass immigration (in particular from India) to now record levels. Many Australians (who have jobs) are living in their car, in tents and under bridges etc as they have possibly a worse housing crisis than we do.
I think people are distracted by these recent arrivals and unaware that the huge numbers coming to Ireland are immigrating legally.
Important point.
The longterm (actually shortterm now) threat to Irish nationality is from LEGAL lmmigration.
And there is no debate about that.
As beef farmer stocking rates are a critical part of farm management. CO2 bulshhit adds to problems but an overstocked farm leads to reduced stock health , food and ultimately profit. It is easily rectified on farm by destocking to reasonable levels through selling cattle.
Ireland is overstocked with illegals it will cost money to deport them ,but it is essential for the survival of us natives .
Of course stopping the migration of these invasive people must be done first.
After all millions are planing to colonise our green and over tolerant land .
The government is telling you to the bag how much fertiliser you can spread and the stocking rate you can keep. It’s mind boggling the regulations and inspections and bord bia audits and fines that farmers have to live under.
However the government itself has no control or standards of any sort.
Too much rain, raw sewage pumped into streams.
Immigration, no control whatsoever leading to out of control pressure on surfaces.
The really depressing part is that they are awash with money but can’t spend any of it wisely or without squandering it.
Everyone can clearly see what is going on, i.e. Ireland has become a soft touch for Asylum claims. No matter, I have not yet seen any article explain the real reason that this has been allowed to happen. It seems a little naïve to just say that politicians are stupid, where as I am incline to believe that there is something more sinister behind it all.
I am reminded of a queue in a shopping lane where the limit was six items. One lady was waiting with ten items in her basket. She noticed another customer looking sourly in her direction and at the sign. I know I can read said the first lady defiantly. Yes but can you count retorted the other?
Even if we could turn off the taps of immigration tomorrow (which this government has comprehensively proven unable and unwilling to do), it is too late – the consequences of the many here already will set the agenda here for years and generations to come, economically, socially & politically. There is no one with a vision for this country in Irish politics. Mass deportation is not something our Irish political class have the stomach for today, though there will be calls for it before long as the situation in the country gets steadily worse.
I would say the govt have a better chance of altering the world’s climate through it’s carbon emissions green agenda than preventing a single migrant arriving here.
Not our current politicians. The emerging Nationalist movement will no problem deporting people en masse. Same way as the current regime has no problem importing people en masse. Only Nationalists are talking about mass deportations.
It’s not too late. We are going to suffer more. But we’ll win in the end.
We must elect as many nationalist politians as possible, who specifically say they will deport. We must be tough. Those with refugee status are only here in a temporary capacity. 815 in 2019, others with asylum status. Many more since. None have authority to remain permanently. The agenda is to allow the alien to have dominion in Ireland. The govt hunt the Irish from Ireland, due to the savage housing crisis, then accuse them of not reproducing enough. Having given them priority accomodation, they claim blacks and browns will breed for us, the very reason they are being trafficked in. A nationalist govt must put an end to this corruption. We must reverse all that was given under a corrupt regime, including priority housing and get their aliens out. Denmark has done it, but I do not think the Irish have the mettle for it, but could be helped by employing the Danes. Acceptance of govt decisions all along rather than defiance has brought us down. Gorman is planning to bring the migrants into towns in staggered numbers now, which is being accepted. Plenty of auld biddy talk too, like accepting ‘women and children’ and demanding extra resources rather than demanding border closure and a full stop to all immigration. As we are a tiny island, our foreign born should be no more than 6%, maybe 4%. We need to identify the number of anti-immigration candidates running in each county, for the local elections. I suspect most electoral areas will have none. We must be discerning about the Independents. Ciaran Mullooly who is running for MEP in Midlands, North west, says Ireland is not full, which puts him in the govt camp. Not all are on our side. We would need a list.
The political class were played by the left. Weak politicians who were afraid of a belt of the crozier from Archbishop O Toole and RTE toed the line. Watch them slowly and sneakily try and backtrack on their previous positions.
I don’t see how they can backtrack. They have created an NGO monster that is squeezing the sole out of the country. Our political media NGO class will all sink while clinging to each other.
And unfortunately they will sink the country and all of us with it.
High time those squeezing out the sole were brought to heel.
It’s very satisfying – amidst all the difficulties
– that quite a few have, independently of one another, come to the conclusion that Fintan O’Toole can be likened to an Archbishop – and the Archbishop I have in mind is Archbishop John McQuaid – O’Toole’s bete noir !
It is quite probable that a figure of the authority of John McQuaid will soon arise from quite a different quarter than that of 1950’s Ireland.
John
A lot of people saw this coming ,the establishment is incapable of calling a halt your point about the lowest rejection rate in europe hits the nail on the head , The ngo sector controals the narrative they must be removed from any input in asylum decisions they are effectively 5 th columists dedicated to our nations destruction and to make it even worse we fund them ,in fact the state just signed up one to tell asylum seekers how to play the system the contract for €22 million . I fear only a radical solution of withdrawl from all international obligations ,declaration of a national state of emergency on national security grounds. Immediate stopping of all pull factor social security payments ,and commencment of large scale forced deportations , Other wise we are doomed to the same fate as the uk of a balkanised country . Without doubt the current trecherous political establishment will not stop and blather through the elections promising change but their boses in the ngo sectors and the legal parasites will mot allow it . Unfortunately unless the patriotic parties unite under a single mantate with the help of rump back bench td we will be stuck with some form of ff fg sf coalition , One agenda stop immigration , unilaterely withdraw from all obligations ,and begin mass deportions , Perhaps uk would join us but they are even in a worse mess than us .Grerat day in Dublin yesterday according to the irish times lies only several hundred attendees ,this is the fake news the 10,000 participents face ,keep up the great work
Good post and agree with your prescription. The only thing I don’t agree with is about Britain joining us to do what needs to be done. I cannot see a Nationalist party or Independent alliance gaining enough ground there to ever get elected. The hold Labour and the Conservatives, and the Media and the Intelligence agencies have over the population is incredible. I believe they are finished. Smart, educated people are fleeing there and moving to New Zealand.
They just had local elections. The Muslim voting blocks influence heavily who gets elected. Khan, the Muslim Mayor of London has just been re-elected for the third time. English people are now a minority in their own capital city. It’s over for them in London and as mass immigration has been ramped up it means further retreat of the natives and Balkanisation for the rest of the country
Yes but the UK has. Population of 67million… they are still the majority.
None of those writing, have understood how vulnerable Ireland is. They talk about catastrophe in large countries like Germany, 84m and the UK but Ireland is only 5m. You could import 5 million blacks into Germany and they would be 16% of the population. But try doing that in Ireland. Ireland is the most vulnerable country in Europe, by reason of its tiny size and rate of mass open borders immigration. Refusing to control our land border means goodbye Ireland and the ethnic Irish. Exactly what our rulers and open borders SF want for us.
I feel that radical european wide measures will happen ,basically we are at war with a ngo idelogy for open borders and nation state destruction ,in their arrogance they bargained for no push back from woke population indoctronation of over 10 years ,cute varadker his far left woke agenda completed took the money and ran . As regards working with the Uk i have seen offers from ulster prods wanting to help down here ,we are to a degree all in this together .If the patriot parties can form a coalation with back bench FF FG TDS trying to save their political necks and go for broke with immediate large scale deportions with uk i believe europe would follow ,This is the greatest threat of our collective time ,our culture and identy is at stake ,I believe other countries would break from brussels and the rotten core of plantation would break ,Of course we would have our marxists agitators to deal with in ireland but hopefully they will only make noise . forgive typos .
I don’t believe it was incompetence, we’re letting politicians off the hook with “they know not what they do”. I believe it was a deliberate policy decision; employers had cheap labour, government didn’t have to implement immigration rules and it brought Ireland into line with it’s EU partners socially, which is laughable because as we were trying to prove our progressiveness, Europe was starting to throw off that cloak. They’d seen what mass immigration does to societies and were starting to backpeddle but we didn’t want to see it. We were the new progressive kids on the block and wasn’t everyone going to love us.
Nelson. I see no ships.
Roll back 20 odd years – Aine Ni Connail and Immigration Control Platform – branded “racist by non other than rent-a-mob head honcho Richard Boyd-Barrett, among all the other usual left wing “patriots”. Sorry that ICP disbanded a short while ago. Probably disheartened.
An intelligent, articulate and capable woman. Well capable for the smears and verbal tricks they tried to pull on her. Very sharp.
Ted Neville as well. I don’t see the Immigration Control Platform online anymore and they don’t seem active now. They were ahead of the rest of us and are true patriots. I remember photo of Áine, cutting a lonesome figure, as a one-woman protest holding a placard in Dublin, possibly outside the Dáil. She didn’t have the support that many do today – it must have been tough for her with the whole Media, the political class against her but it shows how tough and steely a woman she is.
Even Bertie Ahern was warning of our foreign-born population going for 10% to 11% and how he felt this was unsustainable or a tipping point. Those were the days!
So you basic argument John is that a bunch of feckless gobshite politicians have inflicted a demographic disaster on the country for which there is no way out and will looking ahead with my foresight cap on, lead to a collaps in social cohesion. Skyrocketing crime. A permanent parasite class living off the Irish workers and tax payers. Riots as a result of the societal collapse. Economic collaps at the next severe recession.
Here was me thinking that nobody could be so stupid as to not seeing the blindingly obvious outcome and so the cretins gobshites must be working to destroy the country on behalf of the world economic forum. These same people will soon be knocking on your door to tell you about the great work they are doing for Ireland.
The Irish people will become a minority in this country in the next 20 years and the government and the judges deciding these cases are facilitating it.
Our ancestors would be rolling in their graves if they saw the trajectory this country is heading!
