    Almost 3,000 offers of vacant properties to house refugees have failed to materialise – around 12% of 24,411 pledges made through the Irish Red Cross to date.
    The Government is scrambling to find accommodation for potentially tens of thousands of people fleeing the Russian attack on Ukraine.
    Ministers were briefed this week that an extra 5,000 extra beds will be needed before Easter.

    That oncoming freight train of disaster I mentioned yesterday is beginning to pick up speed – and another 580 Ukranians have arrived since then.
    Where, exactly, does Ireland intend to house between 100,000-2000,000 extra people on a long-term basis ?

          …breakfast of champions soundtrack in our Ardoyne.
          Irish people know all about taking in and helping those fleeing foreign invaders….don’t worry your little head about our ability to provide for them….OMG there are a lot !!!

          (as i skin up,coffee made and admire the farm on a nice warm sunny morning,miles and miles away from any refugees:)

      They are all just gonna use Ireland as a staging point for Britain. Once they are here they can walk straight in to UK.
      Told you that several times, have you a learning disability?

        Go on the rasists. let me guess, you’re theory will be that Russia invaded a sovereign nation so that said nation could go to the UK. get out of that basement

          1. anti bot

            Can’t reply with a coherent argument. is that beyond your intellectual capability, of course it is. Tell us more about the invasion. I bet you are unable.

        OK then, what scares you more – immigrants going to UK, or staying here?

      Was it ever going to happen
      When you examine in the cold light of the day you are opening your home to a stranger
      As usual ireland is like everywhere and the media hypes a knee jerk reaction to the horrors of war and the reality of Ireland 2022 is a nation that cannot house its people expected by government to do what it’s told by its new masters another empire or reich.
      Now government has to deal with the chickens coming home to roost for successive government failure to govern

      Meanwhile price gouging is the order of the day as again government stands back during an emergency and allows the practice to flourish
      They can do nothing but during covid they locked us up refused us the right to work made our old folks homes prisons and even delivered untested covid risks into these facilities causing thousands of deaths as a result

      God love any of these refugees coming here I assume the country will resemble a UN refugee camp in Lebanon or outside darfur
