Its an illegal offence under section 20 of the International Protection Act for an asylum seeker to arrive with either Fake documents or no documents at all. Last Year 85% of asylum seekers who claimed asylum at Dublin Airport destroyed their documents on arrival or had fake documents YET the Government is rewarding them by moving them into accommodation centres accross Ireland. Effectively the government is facilitating illegal activity and its only right that people should be concerned.

Spot on ronan, the government bang on about everyone has to abide by the laws of the land but they pick and choose what laws should be in forced and what laws should be ignored. They want to enforce the laws when it comes to dealing with irish people but ignore the laws when it comes to dealing with asylum seekers. If they enforced the law when it comes to dealing with asylum seekers what’s happening in Newtownmountkennedy would not be happening. The government have created this situation and situations like it up and down the country, and they are responsible for it.

That’s a very well documented truthful comment.
It couldn’t be more clear.
Who’s breaking the law here & and using the law enforcers to break it.
Back of the net!

Harris says the Gardais role is to uphold the law as they force thousands of lawbreakers into your community and also take your money to pay for it.

He also says these upholders of the law want more laws to uphold and who is he to deny them

This is only the start, the Rwanda Bill will now force all those economic migrant spongers from the UK, via Belfast into the Republic. Brace yourselves, a tsunami of foreign men roaming the land of Eire is coming

The only thing this did yesterday was send a message to the people that all rules are out the door and they no longer have a police force if they ever believed it. They now will escalate it because this is now a fight for our freedom again. Freedom is never given but taken. This is full proof if their were any doubters that the Rothschild usury money rules Ireland that is used by the blood thirsty kakistocracy to suppress the people and is worse than when the Brits were here before Collins because it’s our people doing this to our people. All rules are out the door again folks and it’s an eye for an eye now. One bit of advise for anyone who is arrested, don’t bother saying no comment, say I don’t answer questions to every question. If in court and asked why, then say that the gardai said any evidence may be used against me and not for me. The gardai can’t cope with an answer that says I don’t answer questions.

Thanks and it puts the power in your hands, not their hands. We need to fight back any way they can and use their system against them now.

Shocking!!
Perhaps protestors should wear goggles. And if they had a supply of salty tear water in a spray bottle, just in case their goggles were torn off, they should spray it into their eyes to help wash it out or dilute it.
Well done Gript for capturing this.

Would you support a decision by Ireland to copy the UK's "Rwanda Plan", under which asylum seekers are sent to the safe - but third world - African country instead of being allowed to remain here?
