All things being equal most people would rather live, work and raise their families in the country where they were born.
The problem isn't 'open borders', the problem is all things not being equal.
Given the choice I would rather have asylum seekers living in my community than racist thugs that violently protest against asylum seekers living in their community.

As a secure Irish person I've no issue with this being called the British Isles any more than, I'm sure, the people on the West coast of Britain have any issue with the water between being called the Irish Sea.
These utter creeps have done *this* to Minister Roderic O’Gorman’s house. They should all be arrested for harassment.
It is only a matter of time before an Irish politician is killed by these fascists.

Yes, they should have dropped their standards and destroyed their own internal market for the sake of a truculent ex-member that want to have their cake and eat it.
The fact that our Prime Minister is called The Taoiseach doesn't stop them from being our Prime Minister. I don't get why some people get so up their own arses when international media refer to them as the Irish Prime Minister. That's a perfectly correct description.
EVERY Anti immigration / Ireland For The Irish account
EVERY Climate change denial account
EVERY Covid denying / antivaxx account
EVERY Transphobic / Homophobic account
EVERY Wierd conspiracy theory account
is calling for a No - No vote.

It's absolutely unbelievable the lengths that those in the thrall of Trump will go to in order to convince themselves that, contrary to all objective evidence, their man is doing well.

I'll always remember a Tony Benn interview at the launch of the first Iraq war
There was live footage from Baghdad in the background & he said something along the lines of "You see those explosions that you find so entertaining? That's people dying. You are watching people die"
My name is Gordon White and I´m some bloke on Twitter in Ireland. I’m appalled by the whataboutary exhibited by Sinn Féin reps when confronted by evidence of Hamas terrorism. I, & many with me, demand that Sinn Féin deliver opprobrium equally to all committers of war crimes.

Do people in the UK actually believe that governments in some EU countries have paused the administration of a potentially life saving vaccine either because The EU have told them to or as a two fingers to the UK, or both?
@iTsAnToOnY
Moe. Thank you for your threads on what happened and what is happening. I lived in Sudan for a while many years ago and still know some people there and have found it hard to know what's going on there recently. So sad to see the country being torn apart.
This 'NGO' thing that has been knocking about in the Right Wing narrative for the last couple of years may seem a bit weird but, when you think about it, hating on organisations that advocate for the disadvantaged, and encouraging others to do so, is very much a Right Wing vibe.
@ColumbiaBugle
If your gut reaction to a humanitarian crisis is to protect yourself from the victims of this crisis then maybe you should take a look at your humanity.
Given that

will provide a detailed report on the brother in law of an ex Fine Gael councillor being in court for non payment of a parking ticket it will be interesting to see how they handle the supposed importation of crack cocaine by the son of a Sinn Féin rep.

Do you think that people from a working class background shouldn't be expected to maintain a reasonable decorum?
That, if I may say so, is a pretty fecking classist view.

Has it occurred to you that if you have to outright lie to support your narrative then maybe it is your narrative that is wrong?
It has becoming very clear that in seeking to destroy Pascal Donohue over a few posters Sinn Féin have no interest in the country and only in getting a head on a pike for their trophy room.
I've enjoyed Twitter since I became active here about 5 years ago but if banning it in Europe is what is needed to stop it spreading lies and misinformation here then I'm okay with that.

Time to give it a rest, Peter
It's a service to those that wish to avail of it.
There was one in Holles Street, which was a comfort when we lost a child to miscarriage.
There's one in the ILAC centre!
I hope that the new NMH includes a prayer space for those that want one.
When Sinn Féin get into government no one will be evicted no matter what without this being waved in
@EOBroin
's face.
And if you think no one being evicted no matter what is a good thing then you clearly haven't thought anything through.
So neutrality means
* Not taking sides in Ukraine
* Taking sides in Gaza
* Letting the US and UK veto how our troops are deployed overseas

The victim, his family and his friends have confirmed that it was not a racially motivated attack and have rejected the use of the attack to promote a racist agenda, including refusing funds raised by a right wing group. Is that enough for you.

You need to think outside the box. I'm sure someone could slip some contraband, maybe a family pack of rashers, into his baggage and we could hold him, at least for a while.

I honestly don't understand why people are still soooo desperate to scrape up anything that appears to look like evidence of vaccine harms. Why can you not just accept the obvious fact that covid vaccines were successfully rolled out across the world and saved millions of lives?
This headline is genuinely nuts.
They didn't "get" €68m from the state. They bid for, won and carried out €68m worth of work for the state, for which they were paid.

Putting a flag at half mast out of respect for the death of a neighbouring head of state is perfectly normal. We are an independent county and, thankfully, have moved ourselves way beyond the self identity of a "former colony".
@MaryLouMcDonald
No one that characterises and lauds IRA terrorists as heroic Irish Soldiers has the right to speak on behalf of a grateful nation to the family of an actual heroic Irish Soldier.
May he rest in peace.
So, to summarise, saying "vote yes yes because all the far right racist pricks want you to vote no no" is the reasoning of a psychopath but saying "vote no no because the government wants you to vote yes yes" is a reasonable and nuanced position.
Did I get that correct?

Absolutely so.
Also you can support Palestinian freedom without be either anti-Semitic or pro-Hamas.
And you can denounce the Hamas attacks on Israeli citizens without being pro-Israeli Government.

Coveney has been one of the more solid and reliable ministers that we have had over the last few years. To lose him over this nonsense would just show the pathetic level that Irish politics has sunk to
Taking out a minister for no reason other than opportunity.
