Three in four people believe that Ireland is taking in too many refugees, according to the latest Business Post/Red C poll, after the arrival of almost 100,000 people in the space of a year.

The Overton window is very left at the moment . Anyone who supports family values, concerned about their kids education are far right ! Keep up the great work Gerard. We neee more voices like yours in Ireland

If the Overton window goes any further left, it'll disappear over the horizon with the setting sun!
Thank you for your kind remark, Scott. Many people are doing what they can in their own ways to halt the runaway train that is contemporary 'woke' Ireland, but the 'great and theโฆ

Indeed. AS W. S. Gilbert writes in The Gondoliers, 'When every body's somebody, then no one's anybody!" When the bulk of the population can be caricatured as 'far right' the term begins to lose even the tiny amount of credibility it might ever have possessed.

I can't quite tell if you understood me to be asserting the claim that 75% of Irish people are 'far right', perhaps not noticing the emoji with the sunglasses behind what I tweeted. Of course, all I was doing in my tweet was making gentle (oh well, perhaps not so gentle) fun ofโฆ

Ergo:- 75% of our politicians also believe we are taking in too many. What we need now is for those politicians to have the courage to stand up for our country and stop cowering to those who want to destroy it!
