@dublincomments @archeohistories Nor can it really. The number of children born per female is probably less than 25% of what it was back then. Population growth back then could be counted in the school playgrounds. Nowadays, many arrive as fully fledged adults

A starving Irish family from Carraroe, County Galway, during the Famine (1845-1852).... Between 1845-1852, Ireland endured one of the most devastating humanitarian crises in modern European history. The Great Famine was triggered by potato blight (Phytophthora infestans), which destroyed the staple crop relied upon by nearly one-third of the population for survival. The consequences were staggering. Around 1 million people died from starvation and disease, while another 1 to 2 million emigrated, many aboard overcrowded “coffin ships” bound for North America. In counties like Galway, entire communities collapsed as food systems failed and relief efforts proved uneven and often insufficient. At the time, Ireland was still part of the United Kingdom, and food continued to be exported from the island even as rural families faced extreme deprivation, a fact that remains central to historical debate about responsibility and response. The famine permanently reshaped Ireland’s population, which fell by over 20% and would not recover to pre-famine levels for more than a century. The Irish diaspora created during the famine years led to cities like New York and Boston developing Irish populations so large that, by the late 19th century, Irish-born residents made up over a quarter of their inhabitants. © National Library of Ireland #archaeohistories

The Irish people are sick to death of the relentless flood of people from failing countries swamping Ireland. Do you seriously not get it? We refuse to be Europe's free dumping ground for lazy welfare parasites, violent gangs, hostile unintegrating opportunists, and shameless economic invaders who suck resources dry while giving nothing back. This isn't kindness..it's national suicide by invitation, and the Irish are absolutely finished pretending it's acceptable.

Colonel Kemp predicts religious war in Britain. I believe this is unavoidable. There is no negotiation with Islam. You either resist or submit. There is no third option and never has been over 1,400 years of violent Islamic imperialism.

Here is a clear and jargon-free (coughs) description of the differences between, Britain, Great Britain, the U.K., Ireland, and the British Isles. 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇮🇪 Scotland, England, and Wales make up Britain (or Great Britain). This is the larger of the two islands. The United Kingdom (UK) is Britain and a country of the island of Ireland (Northern Ireland) together. Ireland is, as we have said, the other island. But Ireland itself is made up of two countries: The Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. This odd situation is compounded by a good many Northern Ireland residents who insist on calling themselves British. (We’ll leave the politics of that out of this post…) Both the islands of Ireland and Britain combined are called the British Isles in a geographic sense. But this framing is contested by many Irish residents, who dislike the term British, for exactly the same reason that some Northern Irish folk love it. Following so far? Scotland, England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland all have individual national soccer teams. In rugby, however, Ireland play as one team. Confused? It gets worse. At the Olympics, athletes from Northern Ireland can represent Team Ireland or Team Great Britain (there is no U.K. Olympic team). Oh, and let us not forget the Isle of Man. Despite being slap-bang in the middle of Northern Ireland and Great Britain, it doesn’t form part of the U.K., but it is in the British Isles. Happy to have cleared all that up.

Brilliant. Just brilliant. A Syrian, an Iranian and a Dutch teenager aged 14 to 16 pinned down a 14-year-old German girl on a sofa and gang-raped her in turns. Door locked, music blaring, video filmed and happily shared around the village. The church deacon who knew all about it kept his mouth shut, hiding behind “confidentiality” instead of calling the girl’s mother or the police. The congregation closed ranks to bury the whole thing, while the mayor simply vanished. The victim is now too terrified to step outside her own front door. The attackers? Still strolling around scot-free. This is the migrant crisis rotting Germany from the inside. Young German girls are paying the price for these imported gang-rape “traditions” – and the politicians are too spineless to even look. I despise this government – and I’ve got every right to say so.

“In the 35 years since Packie Bonner’s penalty save, the Irish economy has created 1.8 million extra jobs. Soon there will be three times more people working here as there were in the early 1990s.”

Spanish influencer Ada Lluch was kicked off a major morning TV show for stating uncomfortable facts about mass immigration: "90% of thefts in Barcelona are committed by foreigners." When facts enter the room, the debate ends—and they silence the messenger. Not content with ejecting her, the panel humiliated her, suggesting she needs a doctor because she's "sick" for daring to think differently. This is how mainstream left-wing media treats dissent: label, mock, and remove. No discussion, no evidence—just censorship disguised as concern. When you can't win with arguments, you win by exclusion.
