  1. You wouldn’t write a satire quite as good as this.

  2. I wonder what it would take for the people who actually vote foe Michael Healy-Rae to turn against him?

  3. *”This is MY town…! This is MY chip~van…!”*

  8. Honestly I don’t see an issue with this, kinda of see it as a good thing that he’s able to voice against something that he is clearly benefiting from, imo it would be worse if he was calling for something while making a fortune off it.

    As it stands he’s voicing his opinion against the asylum policies, while at the same time engaged in legitimate business activities.

  9. Michael has a long-term history when it comes to being opposed to asylum seekers but has stronger beliefs when it comes to being willing to say or do anything when it comes to making money.

    It’s almost beyond belief how fast and willing him and his crowd are to fling their beliefs aside if there is the sniff of a Euro.

    “The vast majority of asylum seekers are free-loaders, blackguards, and hoodlums. They are hunted out of their own place by their own people. I’d take a genuine asylum seeker and put him under my own roof. But where is he? I would prefer to not see these people coming at all. Most people don’t want them. I am only saying what everybody is thinking.”

    He also suggested at the time that Kenmare was in danger of becoming “another Harlem” over plans to relocate seventy asylum seekers in the town.

  11. No, no, no, that’s business Michael. Politician Michael is a separate entity.

  12. Class war at ita finest. Unfortunately, far too many have shown to be the useful idiots these guys love to rile up. Literally text book.

  14. If you’re reading this and from Kerry, I want you to know that the constant elections of Healy-Raes makes people actively think less of you.

  16. How much money do the Healy Rays get from government and council contracts?

  17. The Ukrainians have suffered enough. Being forced to be housed with a Healy Rae is a human rights abuse

  18. Can someone please explain to me how Mr Healy Rae personally is earning so much from housing Ukrainian refugees? Does he own all of Kerry?
