I have thought the same, the government will not be able to do as they say, improving the situation by speeding up the assessing of each person that applies for asylum. Also deportation, as Mr McDowell explained, it is a cumbersome system. The accommodation is at breaking point and most of people want a turn around of the decision to take so many people in. As we are not obliged to opt in, now is our chance to change things, not make it worse. I do think a referendum should be held on this. Article 29 of the Constitution says that any new treaty has to be put before the Irish people before signing it.
Yes exactly there passing through everything without any consultation to us the Irish people and these things should go before us we're the taxpayers of this country and if our constitution is anything to go by we have a right to have a vote on it
The majority of empty seats show how little regard Irish senators have for the Irish people or for Irish sovereignty, which will be completely eroded by this migration pact.
Thank you Senator McDowell one of very few politicians with true integrity in Ireland. The majority are self-serving charlatans. General Election coming up. VOTE THEM OUT.👎🏻
As an English man your opinion is invalid... you can't even controll the state your own Muslim country and at one time you tried to rule the world 😂.. didn't work here even with all the military power you held ..that's one thing you never had .Real love for your country and its people ..the will of us irish is unbreakable history itself should show you that ..

@@rosiesweeney7856 Unfortunately, that's the price of accepting money and directives from Brussels. I don't think much can be done, apart from keeping up the awareness of what is going on.
When I compare Michael McDowell to the people in the dail all I can do is shake my head . It's hard to believe that they are in the same profession. Michael McDowell is towering over them in terms of intellect and integrity there is absolutely no comparison.
Couldn't have put it better myself. McEntee, O'Gorman, Mary-Poo and Me-hole are all ambition and no substance. It's time the people of Ireland stopped rewarding the men and women who are supposed to serve them for betraying them over and over again.
Come on Senator, the government has committed treason against the Irish State and needs to be held accountable before an Irish Court and prosecuted accordingly
NO to the EU. NO to the cultural destruction of the Republic of Ireland ☘️☘️ 🇨🇮 ☘️☘️. NO means NO. Cultural Assimilation and Ethnic Cleansing of Indigenous Irish is Unacceptable
Barry Ward is simply a mouthpiece for a party, who themselves are a mouth-piece for Europe. FG FF no longer represent people of Ireland, they represent the bureaucrats of Europe. Everyone online and reading knows signing into this pact will be to the long-term detriment of Ireland, I hope you are all having the conversation with families and colleagues so they think twice about voting for the people who have driven us towards this reality.
Well put this government has let our country down so badly bowing to every whim of Europe. Will never again vote for any of the parties in Government at the moment. They work hard to destroy our beautiful land. Sooo disappointing
@geraldinecasey5741 And they're too thick to realise that the tide is turning in Europe - continental Europeans are shifting the Right, because they're sick of being let down by culturally Left-wing snobs like the Irish government.
I hate to say it ,but have local + European elections not told you anything ? It's incredible.that this country continually puts these absolute bluffers into power
Francesca Albanese is telling right wing governments that if they don't financially support unwra 6 million arabs from "palestine" will come to EU. It makes even right wing look ineffective. That blackmail is just one of many that are fueling what looks like relocation of middle east to Europe. If it wasn't handled like this one or two countries would be fully taken over by now and we'd know what is going on. This way it's watered down to affect everyone slowly. How is it possible there was a moment of silence in eu parliament for the butcher of Tehran or condolences sent or whatever. Look at middle east on a globe not a skeved map, it's larger than whole of Europe
An absolute powerhouse of a politician and public representative. I always feel compelled to listen carefully when he speaks because he is such a pariah in today's political landscape on the very premise that he makes sense.
Absolutely No for the migration pact. They cannot get a handle of it in Europe or the UK what in God's name does this government think they can do differently. Complete madness😢😢😢
Yes exactly considering if any of these economic migrants are refused asylum there expected to take themselves out of the country and there's no check's done to make sure it's carried out either this migration pact will cripple us completely and no one bothers to make sure that anyone leaves the country once there refused this is just smoke screen and our traitors of government knows it and still is signing us up to it
As it stands we have a right to hold a referendum on this migration pact our traitors of government have no business signing us up to anything without it going before the people if this gets passed we won't have any say the EU will call the shot's on it and if we don't comply we'll face a fine we are crippled enough with taxes in this country without being forced to pay the EU more money because we can't take our quota of migrants
People need to stop with the I’m not racist etc etc every time they speak as you are playing their game ,it’s not racist to want to preserve your country’s history,culture etc from foreign invaders .
Yes sad indeed when he is explaining exactly what this migration pact will have on the Irish people and you think it's racism he is telling it as it is we already know what is happening here and yes Helen MaEntee said herself that eighty percent of these economic migrants she knew nothing about and if this pact goes through nothing will change to tackle it considering as it stands any refugees or migrants that aren't successful in there application for asylum are expected to take themselves out of country this migration pact is going to be another money spinner for the EU as they'll call the shot's if there demands aren't met that's common sense nothing to do with racism
Your a good man Senator Thank you for being the voice for the Irish people when politicians just wont listen and i am just an ordinary Irish man concerned for my Kids futer and safety .
I absolutely think it’s Disgraceful how Ireland has become overrun with illegal migrants, we don’t recognise our towns and villages anymore. Enough is enough this stops Now. This government has gone too far.
The government are all gonna vote the opposite to what the Irish want .. if this hapoenes we deserve A referendum of leaving the EU - ill be the first to vote YES!!!
India population 1.3 billion,Bangladesh 170 million,Pakistan population 200 million.Algeria population 60 million,Fgypt population 100 million.Nigeria population 200 million. They will never stop coming.
Well said Some one with some sense in this rife corrupt government hopefully will dissuade this crazy pact from happening we are in serious trouble if it succeeds
2.5 billon people want to come here, we will be out on our ear, but where will the politicians br who bring this migration pact in, they will be nowhere to be see ( off with their big fat pensions). Give the people the choice. 😢
All told what to say, they don't have opinions. Nodding dogs, just look at O'Callaghan's interview with Fauci. No hard questions and fawning over him. I used to have respect for her especially when she told off that Islamic lecturer in Trinity. Now she looks completely brainwashed, like a newsreader from They live, genuinely. We must comply, tools for the state propaganda. Shocking behaviour by the sell outs in government over the past 5 years. We're now just an outpost of the EU communist superstate and RTE is no longer an Irish TV station, just an infomercial for the EU and the government. When the European parliament swings to the right we'll still be bearing the brunt of the migration pact, we need to start standing up for ourselves.
If We want to destroy our Beautiful Country for Our Grandchildren and Future Irish Generations, Keep travelling the Path Europe is leading us to. What happened Our Irish People of this Generation????
I hope the politicians can get some common sense before it's too late. Most migrants are coming from the UK and the packed means we cannot deport anyone. This is going to a be a disaster that is bad for the Irish, awful for real asylums seekers. 😢
Look at the woman behind Michael, too busy on the phone, does not give a fcuk. Man on his right on his laptop, HA, HA ,HA, Total disrespect to the citizens. Everyone must VOTE NO NO NO .
Politicians have ponced wealth from the taxpayer, and have good pensions to look forward to. If the shite does hit the fan - they can afford to move elsewhere. They really couldn't give a crap - just another day at the office for them. This guy makes real sense, but he might as well be talking to a cow pat.
We really and truly should be having a vote on this , it changes our whole culture , think the working visa is good, might cut out the traffickers - all and all it's too important that no Irish person has a say.
Ireland, you have a real gem in this man.... very level headed, just hope you can get on top of this crisis, unlike us here in UK, most people just aren't bothered, or they never look up from their phones to see the demographcs have completely changed!
A big NO to this pact. It is not good for Ireland. We will be worse off. This government has no love for the people.
