@mullallyelaine Must b an election looming

In 2024, 79% of Irish people believed that the number of immigrants arriving to Ireland was too high, today according to a poll, 79% of people believe that the government are right to be winding down supports for Ukrainians. We should never have been treated like second class citizens in our own homeland. We also want every single non Ukrainian who is here illegally to be deported immediately. We don’t need EU legislation to do that.

🇮🇪🚨 A multi-billion euro ski resort is currently being built in Ukraine is due to open in 2027 🇺🇦💰 - 25 hotels - 5150 Rooms - 13,000 guest per day Irish taxpayers are wasting billions on Ukrainian while our own people suffer. Ukraine is 9 times larger than Ireland. ⬇️🔗

Below you'll find a table, which is from data, pulled from the Charities Regulator, so this data is publicly available, and is freely available for anyone to get. I'm in shock at what I'm seeing, from the year 2020 to 2024, on an average 83% of the total income received by charities (aka NGOs) that are not serving the interests of the Irish people, is provided by the Irish government or a public body (aka the government funnels the money through a body it owns). Let that sink in, NGOs that serve non Irish, are being funded at a rate of 83% by the government, that means only 17% comes from non government sources. You the tax payer are paying for these NGOs to work against your own interests, and the data shows it. You don't vote for it, but you are paying for it. More will come out, but for now I'm in shock, 83%, that's a large %, I thought maybe at most 50% and the rest come from the public pockets directly, no ladies and gentlemen, the government is funding nearly completely. The Government and the Non Irish NGOs operating in Ireland, are in bed together, working against you.

@EmployRightsIE Keep feeding the NGO funfair and the merry go round will continue

High Court Upholds Refusals of Naturalisation for Two Applicants Over Criminal Convictions The High Court has refused judicial review applications brought by Kamouru Abiodun Alabi and Fabricio Cardoso Seidler challenging decisions of the Minister for Justice to refuse them certificates of naturalisation. In a joint judgment, Mr Justice Cian Ferriter concluded that the Minister lawfully determined that neither applicant satisfied the statutory requirement of being of good character under the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act 1956. Both proceedings arose from refusals issued in 2024. Mr Alabi, a Nigerian national resident in Ireland since 2002 and married to an Irish citizen, applied for naturalisation under section 15A of the 1956 Act. His application followed earlier refusals and was supported by evidence of employment, family ties and expressions of remorse. However, he had prior criminal convictions. In 2012, a charge relating to possession of a cloned shopping centre gift card was struck out following a payment to the poor box. More significantly, in December 2014 he was convicted in the Circuit Criminal Court of theft and fraud offences and sentenced to three years’ imprisonment with the final year suspended. He served part of that sentence in custody and was later released on community return. Mr Seidler, a Brazilian national who arrived in Ireland in 2012, applied for naturalisation under section 15 of the 1956 Act. His application disclosed a 2016 conviction for driving without insurance, resulting in a one year disqualification and a fine. Garda vetting later revealed a further conviction in February 2017 for driving without insurance, which led to a four year disqualification and an additional fine. Mr Seidler made detailed representations explaining the circumstances, including personal and family factors, and maintained that he had misunderstood aspects of the earlier proceedings due to moving house at the time. In each case, the Minister issued a letter refusing naturalisation, stating that she had exercised her absolute discretion under the Act. Each letter was accompanied by a detailed departmental submission recommending refusal on the basis that the applicant had not satisfied the good character requirement. The applicants argued that the decisions were legally flawed. They contended that the Minister improperly invoked her absolute discretion in circumstances where, as established in prior case law, that discretion only arises once statutory conditions including good character are met. They also argued that insufficient weight had been given to the passage of time since their convictions, and that the Minister should have indicated when such convictions would cease to prevent a finding of good character. In Mr Alabi’s case, it was additionally suggested that the reasoning was inadequate. The Court rejected these arguments. Mr Justice Ferriter held that, when read together with the accompanying recommendation documents, the decision letters made clear that the refusals were based on failure to satisfy the good character requirement. Although the reference to the exercise of absolute discretion in the letters was described as infelicitous phrasing, the Court found no material legal error. An objective reading of the documents demonstrated that the Minister had adopted the officials’ detailed analysis concluding that the good character criterion was not met. On the passage of time issue, the Court held that the Minister had expressly considered the age of the convictions in both cases and had weighed them alongside mitigating factors, including remorse, family ties, employment history and the absence of further offending. The judge emphasised that the assessment of good character is context specific and evaluative, and that the court’s role is limited to reviewing for irrationality. He found that neither applicant met the high threshold required to establish that the decisions were unreasonable. The Court also rejected reliance on the Criminal Justice (Spent Convictions and Certain Disclosures) Act 2016, noting that its provisions do not apply to naturalisation decisions under the 1956 Act. The Minister was not required to specify a timeframe after which convictions would cease to affect future applications, as such an approach could improperly fetter statutory discretion. Accordingly, the Court refused to grant orders of certiorari quashing the refusals. Each applicant remains free to submit a fresh application for naturalisation in the future, to be assessed on its own merits.

@gearoidmurphy_ Think once you have a first aid course you're in

Can we have an Irish Irish Medical Association too or is that not allowed?

@0xskills @punishablepress Money wont end, the workers will be taxed to death

@punishablepress Retarded policies with open doors have destroyed the education standards, free healthcare is now universal, with many illegal networks taking advantage of poor controls. I guess it will all be over when money ends or the new population takes control.

The scale is insane.

Leo thought it was best for women and mothers to be erased in the Constitution yet he failed miserably. He now seems to know what's best for farmers. Leo is just a WEF "Young Global Leader" and is not on the side of the Irish people.

70% of property bought in Dublin in 2023 was bought by foreigners. 46% paid in cash. Ireland's property market is an international money laundering haven. Ireland is the only country in the EU without restrictions on foreign purchases of property. owenreilly.ie/wp-content/upl…

It was a neat move. Join the EU and shift the Irish economy to American FDI in the early 70s. Get Irish farming hooked on EU subsidies and let it wither. As Irish people moved in their droves to urban areas to work in American factories the farmer could still sell his fruit and veg in the supermarkets a for a livable wage. Let a couple of generations pass. International supermarkets take the place of the grocer and import their fruit and veg at exploitative prices from other countries undercutting Irish farmers who cannot produce for peanuts because they need to live - and because of Varadkar and co.'s mismanagement of infrastructure from water supply, to electricity, to inflation, to taxation crippled them. Varadkar then sits smugly in a podcast studio and says 'We’re (urban people) the ones paying all the bills and you’re the ones in receipt of a lot of subsidies and a lot of tax benefits that other people don’t get.' The obvious irony is that the "we" he talks about - urban areas - are propped up by American multinational corporation tax receipts. There is no Irish indigenous industry. Like farming, FF/G have left it to wither for 50 years. If US corporations didn't receive tax breaks bordering on tax haven status, there would also be no urban wealth. Ireland is a nation propped up from outside - farmers by the EU, urban areas by US FDI. Varadkar has leaned into this FDI dependency more than any other leader before him and has left the nation - for farmers and for native industrialists - a place where free enterprise cannot survive. To make his comments more absurd, Varadkar, as a lifelong politician has been subsidised by the Irish taxpayer - rural and urban - his entire life. Varadkar seems to think attacking rural Ireland will take the focus off the fact that he led this country and the failures within lie on his shoulders. This man has less dignity than he does political nous. He should shuffle off into obscurity.
