Quote from: whitey on Today at 06:22:08 PMSo if I understand you correctly, in your view, ALL concerns regarding immigration are driven by either racism or stupidity (or both)?

And if the answer is yes-do you support open borders?

All concerns? Not in the slightest. But anyone who regards it as a priority or anything close to one, or who spends more time obsessing about it than about they do about health, education, taxation etc...Well you have to question their motivation.


After all, other than racism or stupidity, why would anyone be angry enough to take to the streets, or to base their voting decisions in protest about immigration ahead of in protest about the state of the health service, or housing crisis, or tax evasion by the super wealthy etc etc etc?
Hear hear... is a very useful distraction used by FG and Tories from those other more pressing issues
Seeing millions being spent on housing refugees etc is bound to (rightly or wrongly) piss people off when they can see the state of things like the roads, hospitals, schools etc. low hanging fruit for a protest vote.

Screaming far right doesn't help.

Hospitals have been a shambles long before a refugee was about the place. If you blame hospital issues on refugees it's as simple as this, you are a racist.

And we were told that there was no money to fix hospitals..........and yet we have hundreds of millions (if not billions) to house, feed and clothe refugees

There's towns and villages that don't have a single Guard-and yet we have hundreds of millions (if not billions) to house, feed and clothe refugees

38000 people have been waiting for more than 18 months for a scan yet we have hundreds of millions (if not billions) to house, feed and clothe refugees

10,000 disabled kids have been waiting for more than a year to get an appt to see a specialist and yet we somehow have hundreds of millions (if not billions) to house, feed and clothe refugees

People are rightly outraged and it has shag all to do with racism

I hear it's closer to trillions. You forgot to shoehorn the homeless in there. You've a huge heart caring so deeply about so so many

He keeps saying "We" so maybe he's referring to Biden's America?

You have to be wondering what the hell is going on? What is the aim purpose of all this. Are we trying to boost our young population artificially with the planted to maintain what is an aging population around the corner.

The planted? That's it lad get it all out so we can see who you really are.

Listen you are in yank land, you havent a clue what your talking about. There is no shortage of money into healthcare. There's a shortage of value for money, competency and accountability. See new children's hospital. Now stop pretending you know anything about Ireland.

Quote from: whitey on Today at 01:46:52 PMImmigration is the number one issue because it costs hundreds of millions of Euro to house, feed, clothe and transport these people (some of whom are complete fraudsters)

Ah so your biggest concern day to day isn't being able to afford to heat the home you can't afford to own, but rather, it's the money the state has to pay for those damn immigrants? Surely if it's true that on a day-to-day bais the health of the states coffers are of more concern to you than your own coffers, then taxation and tax dodging by the superwealthy that ought to be making you mad, instead of the dark skinned fella walking down the street minding his own business?


People have (and had) legitimate concerns that are not being addressed

The government (and Sinn Fein) had an opportunity to tackle this but they caved to the woke NGOs and just started calling people racists and far right

I have 4 immediate family members who are staunch lifelong Blueshirts and they're all voting third party at the next election

I'm not surprised that's the stock you come from.

Tell me, who is this "third party" and what's the name of the candidate?


I used the term third party in the generic sense-ie not FF, FG, SF, PBP, Labour etc

Candidates haven't been declared yet-so it will be some type of protest vote for someone like Aontu or an independent if I were to guess

Ok so who does that leave for them to vote for. Tell me the constituency and I'll even help you find out.

I would say Aontu is a possibility or a good independent who some chance of winning



Constituency?

We have a price to pay for being part of the EU. Taking our fair share of emigrants is part of it. We have a choice, leave the EU. Lets see how that goes for the Brits who you do seem to have more in common with than anyone else.

Quote from: Snapchap on Today at 12:48:18 PMIf you're the sort of person for whom immigration is more imporant than healthcare, taxation, education, housing, the cost of living, then you're too f**king stupid to see how you're being manipulated.

Immigration affects health, education and housing.

Give me the stats on the health and housing. Education has been a struggle in the South more to do with the appalling planning by government. Show me the data that says immigration has caused increased waiting times in hospitals. Show me where housing affordability was caused in some way by Immigrants (most of them are rammed into building that were never to be used for housing - old hotels for example)

Quote from: Armagh18 on Today at 08:51:59 AMUnfortunately theres a fair chunk of ordinary people with genuine concerns about immigration (fair few there will be a small bit racist too I'll admit) but they're by no stretch far right looneys. The danger is the far right looneys who are probably 0.001% can appeal to that more moderate chunk who have been let down the major parties and feel like they've no choice.

If you are looking at the next election with your main focus being on immigration, then I'm afraid you are either stupid or racist (and all racists are stupid).

Interesting listening to Brolly's podcast today. He referenced a recent Ipsos research poll into people's biggest priorities in the 26 counties.

Immigration finished top at 22%!!!! To put that f**king lunacy into context, healthcare came in at 4%. Education came in at 2%. Taxes and the economy at 2%. Energy prices, which have increased by around 1,000% in the last decade at 2%.

If you're the sort of person for whom immigration is more imporant than healthcare, taxation, education, housing, the cost of living, then you're too f**king stupid to see how you're being manipulated.

Yep, its easy to blame all your woes on foreigners and some people are just to thick to see what is being done to them. People going on about SF moving right. Wait till you see the independents and FG in the next 6 months.

Quote from: bennydorano on March 27, 2024, 09:00:44 PMArmagh win by 2 (2.9 to 2.7) after looking like they were going to choke and throw it away after being in control throughout. Cavan much more aggressive in their pressing and application in the 2nd half, could have nicked it.

Out of Armagh's 2.9 I'd say the forwards contributed 0.2 maybe, that's a good & bad stat.

Armagh were 6/7 point the better team only for a ridiculous collapse in the last 5 minutes. Very depressing stuff watching all cavan teams at the moment.

Quote from: whitey on March 27, 2024, 03:23:55 PMWhether you like or dislike McDowell he argued points of law as it pertained to the failed referendums and what he said made all the sense in the world.

The govt tried to pull a fast one and it cost Varadkar his job

If I were to hazard a guess, "far right" (by the standards of this board) will get somewhere between 15-20% of first preference votes in the next General Election





Whitey, you might as well ask a dog to estimate how far it is to the moon than ask you to estimate first preference in votes in a southern election from America. I would say max 3% and will get no one elected as only the brain dead would vote for them and no one will transfer to them.

There are are large cohort of people who are not ''Far Right'' and all that jargon who will vote for certain principles these candidates stand for. There is a huge disconnect between the Major Parties and the Electorate. There will be many who will privately do a rebellious vote.

Sinn Fein are in bother. They have lost ground in the many disadvantaged areas they would have been sailing through.

SF are no longer seen as an alternative for change

I know I won't be voting for FF/FG/SF/Greens.

By you.

There's always the social democrats, independents who'll be far right if you want them to this election and far left the next one. Whatever suits. Then you can vote for the inbreds in the Far right parties so still plenty of choice for you.

I don't have much time for the Far Right parties, but calling them inbreeds doesn't put those who call them that in a good light.
Sinn Fein have proven to be one of the weakest major opposition parties in a long time. Voting for them will be more of the same. Sinn Fein I'm afraid have lost their way. I suppose this was going to happen when there was no Cause to fight for anymore, and now they've naturally fallen in with the pack.

Inbreds was quite restrained. Good for nothing useless cnuts without a braincell between them. They deserve nothing but ridicule and to be bet of the streets wherever they go. How's that.
