Dozens of asylum seekers bussed back to Mount Street as others left to walk Dublin streets or find new tents

  1. wow so destroying a symptom of the housing crisis didn’t fix the overall problem?!?! who could have seen this coming!!!!

  2. Right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing. Sounds like they were being loaded onto busses pretty much randomly and then sent out to places which didn’t have space for them. Then they get back into the city only to be handed a tent again.

    Is there nobody with a fucking plan here? Like, “Stop giving them tents. Run one-way shuttle busses from the IPO out to wherever once an hour, all day. You can take the bus or you can fuck off.”

    Anyone who hasn’t been processed that day, can get on the list for a bus to return to the IPO the next morning. Nobody else gets brought back.

    But that whole article definitely has a air of fanning the flames about it. You’re looking at all these nationalities and stories and wondering “WTF is this guy even doing at the IPO instead of being handled by the Gardai”

    But this:

    >Omar, a 23-year-old from Somalia was among a group to get a new tent and pitch it near O’Connell Street.

    Nah, this is going to blow up. Government needs to grab this nettle no matter how racist it might make them look.

    There’s a gang of scrotes going to descend on one of these tent cities with knives and petrol, and it’s going to end up on front pages globally.

  3. Rather than, you know, burning places down, people should start breaking in and occupying spaces that are left empty and make them habitable for people, regardless of where they come from?

    Idealistic, maybe.
    Do able, yes.
    Fun, probably.

  4. What an absolute cluster fuck and of course they try to  blame  it on the brits. We really need a general election 

  5. Got the images of the clear out on international media yesterday.

    Back to normal now. The new Harris PR team doing steller work.

  6. Our caring government in action. “Unlimited numbers” they said.

  7. Anyone else smell a rat as to who’s telling them where to set up camp?

  8. I don’t know the figure, in square Metres, but the amount of EMPTY office space in Dublin must be in the 1000s, these brand new office builds can surely temporarily house a few people. Before you start of course they are not designed for this, but come on its 4 walls, a roof and a jacks somewhere.
    This general election can’t come quickly enough.

  9. I am amazed that this country is incapable of doing a single thing properly 👏🏻

  10. This is no one’s fault but our own. Classic use the British government as a scapegoat for our own fuckup.

  11. Ireland is at a very important crossroads in regards to migration.

  12. You would almost feel sorry for Joe Bloggs FG/FF/GP party member who has to go knocking on doors soon asking people to vote for these same shower of incompetent morons to get another five years.

    I’ll be giving them an earful, respectfully, as to why these shitebags will never get a vote off me for as long as I live.

  13. >The group were able to get new tents from homeless charity The Lighthouse and pitched them close to the city centre.

    A charity that should not be getting donations.

  14. “Ladi, a 19-year-old from Albania….arrived to Northern Ireland five days ago, and slept in a park for two nights without a sleeping bag, he said. After this, he was accommodated by Albanian men in Belfast until they brought him to the IPO in Dublin yesterday, he said.”

    From Albania…wtf like? What war or persecution is there in Albania. This whole thing is beyond a joke now. Pat Kenny had a journalist on Newtalk the other day saying he had been telling the government about the problem of migrants crossing the border for 10 months. They ignore it and it only comes out now because of some publicity. This is beyond incompetent. Those currently in power are a danger to our country, especially McEntee

    All those gobshites have been doing is blaming ‘the far right’ when questioned on anything to do with immigration for a few years now. Maybe if they stopped trying to deflect responsibility, we wouldn’t be in this position. Their policies are what’s helped to grow the far right, not guys like Philip Dywer.
