Conor, here, sobbing that most welfare recipients are Irish natives?
'Most' means nothing without per capita.
Irish are 84.5% of the population.
Non-Irish 15.5%.
Yet. Jobseeker's Allowance 2024 DSP Irish nationals 86,286 → 19.0 per 1,000
Non-Irish nationals: 41,468 → 49.6 per 1,000 (2.6× higher)
Your "work-shy natives" line is anti-Irish nonsense Immigrants hammer the dole 2.6× higher than Irish natives.

@JFHurstX Yet you say “mass deportation”? Do you not think they’ll notice? Most of the social welfare spongers are ours.

@Ireland4Ukrain @OffgridIreland @JakeFitzsimons Bit ironic given that non nationals are massively overrepresented on the dole. 🤣

@OffgridIreland @JakeFitzsimons 88% claiming ( like yourself numbnuts) are Irish. 12 % are non nationals. You still crying outside McRapeys pub?

@burn_stuff32338 @realsonofgod23 @businessposthq Why wound we give welfare to people who have massive amounts of wealth?
Are people over 66 incapable of working?
English

@PopeSeneca @realsonofgod23 @businessposthq Yeah its called social welfare. You would scrap the welfare state. Ireland is not like california, you will die outside in the winter.
But you would just leave the old people die.
Listening to you I see why the far right GET NO TRACTION AT ALL IN IRELAND - ZERO

Ireland will need higher levels of immigration and people working later in life to counter the impacts of an ageing population on the economy, a new government report has found.

@JakesOlasupo @irishexaminer And yet there's no direct flights from DRC to Ireland.
English

@PopeSeneca @irishexaminer That's what countries do - they take in asylum seekers. Countries around the world do it and Ireland is not an exception.

@JakesOlasupo @irishexaminer Since when is it a hard working Irish persons job to work so that the government can hand it to Africans?
Why aren't other African countries spending their money to help these people?

@PopeSeneca @irishexaminer Saving human lives is more than the money.

@DjangoD41360096 @D186494419 @LDNRentersUnion So what you're really saying is it should be reserved for public sector workers?
English

@D186494419 @LDNRentersUnion It should be reserved for key workers (nurses, ambulance drivers etc) because we need them in London but don't pay enough for them to live there
English

@jhcgraham @StephenMather6 Think of all the homes that could be built with the money spent on NGOs.
English

@StephenMather6 But what do you mean by ngo's all homeless organisations are ngo's and thousands of other bodies that provide vital support
English

Prediction:
Big increase in Social Welfare payments
More money for NGO’s
Tax reduction package for certain business sectors
Fuck all for the average working family paying 52% of their income to run the country

Tánaiste Simon Harris has told the Fine Gael parliamentary party that October’s Budget will have an overall package of around €7bn and the split between tax and spending will be decided in the summer economic statement.
English

@JakesOlasupo @irishexaminer A smaller group that is going to cost the taxpayer tens on millions in state costs. Money that could be spent on citizens.
English

@PopeSeneca @irishexaminer My point still stands, they are a very small group. The way Bertie Ahern singled them out, you would think there are large number of them in Ireland.

@avidseries @jammyjammy67 Argentina is primary European and it’s unstable as fuck and has been democratic since barely 1983 🤷🏼♂️

@bodopubglord @JakeFitzsimons Any explanation for why foreigners are massively overrepresented on the dole? 🤣
English

@JakeFitzsimons No because irish dont want to qork these jobs and they are paid legal minimum wage, they rather sit on the dole and suck up all the benefits whilst those lads in factories pay up for their dole
English

@JakesOlasupo @irishexaminer So you like to go off outdated data?
So you're admitting you were making false claims.
English

@PopeSeneca @irishexaminer That's a new report. I was relying on a 2022 report.
English

@JakesOlasupo @irishexaminer So much for there being no live data of Congolese people in the asylum system.
English


@PopeSeneca @irishexaminer Stop talking nonsense there is no live record for congolese asylum seekers in Ireland. The last notable record was less than 100 congolese asylum seekers. They're a very small group.
English

@JakesOlasupo @irishexaminer There's only 1000 of them in Ireland yet nearly half of them are in iPas centres costing the Irish taxpayer millions every year.
Not to mention non EU immigrants account for over 50% of the immigrants for each of the last 5 years.
English

@PopeSeneca @irishexaminer It depends on how you want to look at it. The majority of immigrants coming to Ireland are whites. But he left that part and complained about the Congolese. I mean, Congolese population in Ireland are just over 1,000 and that's both DRC and Congo Brazzaville.
English

@DanMulhall @realPaulConroy The fact that you said host country gives away that even you don't see them as truly Irish. 🤣
English

Many children of Irish emigrants become British, Australian, American etc. citizens. Others retain an Irish identity. It all depends on circumstances. The person in question seems to have developed an Irish identity as many people with immigrant backgrounds do. Irish immigrants & their children often adopt the identity of their host country. That’s the way it goes.
English

A lot of the angry responses to my post appear to be confused about Irishness. They think it’s only available to people whose families on both sides have lived in Ireland for generations. Those people are certainly Irish but so are many people of Irish heritage who were born abroad. If they have one Irish born grandparent, they are entitled to citizenship.
Someone born in Ireland without an Irish heritage but who grows up here is, under our laws, entitled to be Irish. What else could they be. They may never have seen their ancestral homeland. They have been educated in Ireland and been part of our society.
The only reason for denying them the right to be Irish would be racism pure & simple, and that is not something most Irish people would go along with, although a noisy minority probably holds such un-Irish views.

@JakesOlasupo @irishexaminer It's far right to think there's too much immigration?
English

@irishexaminer This is the man looking for far-right votes. He's no different from all the far-right agitators with gofundme accounts on social media.
