I wonder what happened in March that might have caused this.
I can’t possibly think of any event that happened this year that could possibly have contributed to this.
Oh well. Guess it’s a mystery.
And then wonder why rent + hotel prices are getting worse
Your recent post history is something. Ukrainian refugees and Love Island.
And as much as people here try to make it out, there can be no limit on how many we take in.
A few negative comments , The facts are that student accommodation will be used by Ukrainians in September is going to cause big problems. Down vote away.
And? There’s a war on and we aren’t helping militarily unlike many other nations. We have to help in indirect ways such as bringing in refugees. You don’t want that? Then grab a rifle and fight for them yourself.
I think they should just let everyone come here,fuck the country right up,sure at least our clowns in Brussels get a little pat on the head because they’re good little boys and girls,,what a pathetic country this really is,,,more, more and more no matter what the consequences are for Irish people
Suppose being homeless is better than being blown up
I often wonder do racist wankers who give out about refugees coming here know about our own history or when they whay Irish songs are about when they sign them probably while drunk 🤔
Is this a surprise?
How many Ukarine citizens were accepted by Africa and the middle east …….Zero ….
Its 37,870 overall, its grand
I think political elites in Ireland need to wake up to the rising anti-immigrant sentiment in the country. The housing crisis and the coming economic madness is only going to drive that more and more. I lived in the UK leading up to Brexit and saw it happening there, there’s a definitely similar flavour of stuff going around here now.
In the UK the strategy of ignoring that sentiment – or telling them they are wrong/idiots/racists – just didn’t work. I hope Irish political parties don’t make the same mistake.
If Ireland was being invaded would like to think other countries would accept our citizens.
Assuming 3 people live in a typical apartment, Ireland would need to build 10,0000 new apartments every week to accommodate the Ukrainian refugees. 10,000 every week!
That is on top of the existing shortage of 200,000 to 500,000 homes needed for the native Irish! We had a housing crisis long before the refugees started showing up.
Writing cheques we cannot cash…… we can’t even look after our own people
I think the main issue with all the Ukrainian refugees is not about them but our own government. We have had housing and health problems in our country for years yet little to nothing was done about it.
The fact that now heaven and earth is being moved for them is what bothers a lot of us now. They are borrowing money and spending money the people of Ireland will be paying back to help others rather than their own people. All so they can virtue signal to the world and be good boys for the European Union
In the interest of clarity, this data refers to those that arrived in Ireland as refugees under the Temporary Protection Directive (TPD), in other words, in the week-ending 19 June 2022, there were 37,800 Ukrainian nationals in Ireland under the TPD and 38,700 Ukrainian and non-Ukrainian nationals in Ireland under the TPD. In addition to this, Ireland has registered an inordinate increase in asylum applications. By the end of March, Ireland had received 3,717 asylum applications in addition to the 38,700 TPD refugees. The demographics of that 3,717 are; 805 Somali asylum claimants, 386 Nigerian asylum claimants, 375 Georgian asylum claimants, 325 Algerian asylum claimants and 1,826 asylum claimants from ‘other’ countries, predominantly Afghanistan, Zimbabwe and South Africa. As far as I am aware, that figure was at approximately 5,000 by this month, June 2022. TPD refugees and asylum claimants combined – Ukrainians, Somalis, Nigerians, Algerians and Georgians – it is closer to 44,000 this year.
There’s more Ukrainians than Leitrim people in the country

Throw fixing the housing crisis in the bin.
