In the international media, Ireland has a reputation as one of the most immigrant-friendly countries out there, accepting more refugees and asylum seekers than most European countries. But, in the past few months, that has apparently changed with a series of anti-migrant attacks and riots across Ireland. In this video, we take a look at what's happened recently, why the attitudes to immigration have changed, and how this might affect Irish politics.

Im really sick of the term "asylum seeker" being thrown around. These are economic migrants.
If you're fleeing war or persecution youre and asylum-seeker
@@drake1896 and clearly these people aren't. The fact they throw their passports away is a bit of a giveaway.
@@declanstewart5690 no, it really isnt. its a dumb thing to do for sure, but its not a sign that they arent seeking asylumn
@@Skywatcher16why would they come to the uk or Ireland if they aren’t economic migrants? Why not stay in France?
Hasn’t Ireland been providing the world with millions of economic migrants for the last 200 years?
We were NEVER ASKED
Welcome to the rich countries of Europe. Nobody gets asked about mass immigration.
how could we organize a nationwide rent strike in Ireland?
according to the government you dont have a say, do as your told
Never asked .told lies.
Nobody was asked because they know everyone would have declined.
3% of the population has arrived in the last year. No matter who those people are that is too much change in such a short period of time
Farmers told the Daily Mail that there is 100M people living in the UK. Sewage operators say the same. The big food stores say they''re feeding 80M. The population stats are much higher in the UK than ONS state.
@@eliakimjosephsophia4542 DAILY MAIL..??...FFS..!!
@@eliakimjosephsophia4542 Maybe we're just eating too much, we're 60M eating for 100M, no wonder obesity is rising ;)
That doesn't take into account the people that eat less. Mass migration is definitely involved. Plus the stores know what Obese people eat. @@treeaboo
3%? That's an awful lot. Unlike the current parties (who all are all too happy to bring in even more), only the National Party bothers to put the Irish *first!*
I can’t believe they’re putting 17.000 of these chancers up in hotels, while they have about that many of their own homeless people freezing in the streets
Ik man if u are from Ireland and u go over to dublin you can count so many. I went to dublin frim portloaise a few hours before the riots began and I saw soo many homeless
I thought it was only the tories who put them in hotels
Question: at what point are you allowed to express concerns about immigration without being called a racist?
You can't. Only the National Party takes the concept of putting the Irish *first* serious, the others are too busy deploying riot police to harrass you for even mentioning this problem.
Not at any point if you live in Ireland
@@HighFlyingOwlOfMinerva And National Party is just falling apart over leadership
As a muslim born in Denmark with north african roots. You can question it as much as you like. My personal perspective is as long as you dont generalize entire groups of people, call them racist slurs or call for discrimination there is nothing wrong. Any nation have a right to preserve their culture and fabric of the society.
The term racist has no meaning now - the Libtards just use it to insult anyone they can't win an argument with...
Another thing to note that there has been cases where 70 African male asylum seekers were placed in small rural villages with populations of less that 1000. This was done over night without any consultation with the local residents. An objective argument against this is the strain been put on local services over night. A more subjective (yet still valid) concern is that the locals feel threatened because they don't know who the people are, where they are from or what their backgrounds are. Many of these men are undocumented. Many come from cultures with less that stellar records on woman's rights. It's a culture shock.
Exactly
Frankly, this seems like it was done on purpose. It makes no sense whatsoever. There isn't a town in the world that can take a 7% increase in population overnight without additional provisions. That's equivalent to 616,000 people arriving in London or NYC.
Damm, that's messed up. We have a similar issue in Canada with Indian immigrants who dont understand the concept of womens rights or deoderant
And not wanted...has NO benefit to Eire..
Less than a 1000? There are villages whose population is being doubled overnight with scamfugees. The people have had enough. To make matters worse the people are being bled dry by them to add insult to injury. Wouldnt be surprised to see the providers of accommodation being attacked next
Well done TLDR- if only the Irish media was able to provide such a balanced and grown up summary of the situation
Irish media are crap even worse than that
Yep way more even handed than a lot of stuff TLDR offer up, I was holding my breath going in to this one but pleasantly surprised.
Fat chance of that. Our goverment despises us and have made that clear.
To be fair the main stream media in Ireland are not bad especially at holding the Government to account or exposing the various scandals that have bedeviled the country, Irish mms is certainly far superior to the compliant mms across the Irish sea.
True...!
Like Sweden, Ireland is waking up.
Enough is enough
V late but....
too late im afraid
Yeah, but over there, crime has increased by 40% and all by migrants.
Too late
There has been a housing shortage of ridiculous severity since 2014. Almost nobody who is under 35 even thinks about getting a house. This is the biggest issue in the country but the government has been ignoring it. Makes you ask how many of them are landlords...
Well that's not correct nor is it accurate. If your over 35 in ireland and haven't bought, I suggest it's you and your friends that are the problem considering the average age is 32.1yrs old
Cheap labor brings the middle class down. It is Digusting human trafficking and their cultures dont fit. Europe is getting destroyed by pathetic virtue signalling
@@chollyappleseed1969 Accurate is using Your and You're in the right place. The average age of what is 32.1 years? What friends and what do they have to do with anything? You make a senseless, pointless argument. State what you want to say in a clear and concise way.
Such as "My father bought a 3 bedroom house in Blackrock for the equivalent of €80,000 in the early 70's. What can you buy in Dublin for that these days?"
Just because an issue does not affect you does not mean it is not an issue.
The housing crisis has two main causes both on the demand and supply side, both from an increased requirement as the economy grew and a reduction in capacity with the construction industry in Ireland. In the 2014, Ireland came out of Austerity and Ireland's economy started to grow again, increasing the need for accomodation, however, it wasn't until 2017 that the problem was evident and it was in 2019 that the problem started being addressed (if you were in Ireland in 2019, you would have noticed an increase in Cranes on the Skyscape and construction lorries on the road) then for 2 years the country was on hold due to the pandemic. During the Boost, construction industry lost all its construction workers, from Project Managers and Construction Foremen to skilled Tradesmen to Labours, these haven't been replaced, when the construction industry had got back to productivity the pandemic halted house/flat production for 2 years.
There is a story my father used to tell that sums up Irelands present problem, in the late 80's the South Tipperary Council held a meeting about the state of the roads. One of the Councils were talking about the lack of skilled men in Civil Engineering and road builders. One smart-ass piped up siad that Irish construction workers built the Uk's motorway and the Councilor remarked "Yes and they are still doing it in the UK but the problem is they are in the Uk not Ireland.".... You remind me of the smart-ass piping in with a stupid comment...
@@clancywiggam Move to Carlow or Wexford, instead of complaining about Dublin or saying you have to emigrate for a better standard of living....
The whole of europe is souring on imigration.
Because we've seen what it's doing to our continent.
It's not immigration tho. It's illegal immigration disguised as asylum seekers.
Especially Muslim immigrants.
Nice racist wolf whistles here. Immigration is doing fuck all to anyone.
Do you know what is consistently ruining whatever country you're in and blaming immigrants for? Your actual government, who make all the decisions.
@@keith9808 Are you going to do the jobs that immigrants do because native peoples will not do them? Or will you pay more for goods and services?
And now their flying home for Christmas, to their unsafe home 🤔
I came to Ireland as an international student (earned a scholarship to study a bachelors...) and I can also see that some immigrants and refugees are not exactly adapting well to the country. I see that some ukranian refugees are now "the privileged ones", having free food, free accommodation and they also became very spoiled (I have to serve some of them in the hotel I currently work at), while at the same time people from middle east are not really happy here, always complaining about everything and demanding more stuff (Of course, not all of them, but many). This is not what we should be doing, this country (Ireland) is giving us a huge opportunity to live better lives and we should be grateful for that, and not become spoiled brats demanding more free stuff without willing to give something in return. Just my two cents.
How about the positive side of the spectrum cause I wanna see two sides of the story.
Where did you come from?
And you are most welcome here and I hope you settle in
@@emptyhad2571 Go on, then. What are the positives?
How can there be any when it has already been proven that non-western economic migrants cause a deficit to the economy, look at the Netherlands for example, there it has cost their county a loss of 17BN on average every year. When there is a deficit every year, how can there be a positive side to the story of mass migration, when it is the natives of the country that are losing out on everything, while the migrants are getting everything for free? @@emptyhad2571
Immigrants need to also understand that the country that takes them in is not obligated to respect or follow their rules and traditions, including their religions
Straw man argument
Literally what does this have to do with this video? The man didn't engage in the stabbing because he was Algerian, he did it because he was mentally Ill, and even then he had been an Irish resident for 20 years
@@quacksayssquawk2899 Although I agree that he's off subject, immigrants from outside of the EU do commit a disproportionate amount of crime. Are we going to pretend that doesn't matter? Also 20 years doesn't change anyone's culture. There is a severe lack of integration, 20 years is nothing.
@@quacksayssquawk2899 He was an Irish citizen by naturalisation meaning he came to Ireland and managed to stay long enough to get citizenship meaning all he did as stay put, that doesn't mean he isn't Muslim and it doesn't mean he ever integrated with any Irish people. The same goes for every other immigrant in any country. And that's what it has to do with this video.
We all know that islam doesnt integrate it looks to dominate
Its almost as if taking in a large amount of immigrants irrelevant of culture in a short amount of time and without a proper housing plan will result in mass unrest. Who would have thought
The National Party didn't, given how they've been talking about this problem for years now.
I guess putting the Irish *first* just wasn't a popular thing to say up until recently.
Ireland is no longer a nation. Now it is an economic zone and migrant camp.
It was 20 years ago your media just cant hide it anymore
From my experience the vast majority of Irish people are weary of immigration in Ireland, not out of racism but more they’re concerned that as a society we don’t have enough resources to cater for them
Whys it racist to not want the country turning brown?
The Dublin riots and attacks on refugee tents doesn't exactly suggest it's not also racism. Yes Ireland does a housing shortage and more housing should be built to accommodate people except we have restrictive height limits, zoning laws and supply being far outpaced by demand despite having some of the most undeveloped land in the EU. It's a government issue more than immigration.
That's just common scene. Full blame to the Irish Goverment.
Tell that to the Murphy family in tulamore ,or the poor teacher and children that were stabbed,or me who was beaten to a pulp and can never return to my job as I have lost my sight in one eye and have plates holding my face together,while working for Irish rail.
So the Irish should 'nice' themselves into being a minority in their own homeland? Who cares if avoiding that involves being called a 'racist'.@@googane7755
Not just Ireland, all of Europe...
And now illegal migrants are pouring into the U.S.
All over world where predominately white Christian. Risk money & life to come here then call natives names like racist white supremacists. Why come if it's true that the natives & their laws & economy are bad.
You didn't mention the 3 horrific and brutal crimes committed by long term unemployed immigrants in the last 2 years. The Sligo massacre of 2 gay men ( beheaded ) and another stabbed in the face, the ashling Murphy murder and 5 and 6 year old kids getting stabbed with a 36cm knife outside their school. Probably the 3 most horrific crimes ever committed in the history of the irish state
seems like a good idea not to blame other immigrants for them, init
In the history of ireland? I mean, the British easily beat anything going on now in ireland right now in terms of the crimes they committed against them, the potato famine, the hundreds of years long occupation of the island, the various crimes that the black and tans (british occupying forces) commited in the late 1910s and early 1920s against irish civilians, and a bunch of other things. Idk why the irish aren't more skeptical of outsiders considering how royally fucked over they've been due to them but i'm not irish, so i'm not exactly in the loop on all that has changed culturally speaking there.
Absolutely
Yeah, they are fudging the real issues
There have been worse crimes done in Irish history. Also this video is neutral and isn't listing off the worst crimes for the sake of making one side of the story seem more right than the other.
Ireland has attracted about 350,000 immigrants in the previous 10 years, and didn’t build enough housing for them, therefore a severe housing shortage, and then hardship and discontent for the population who can’t afford to pay rent or to buy, same as Australia, governments need to limit immigration if the housing stock is not available
What happened to all that housing during the boom times. There were whole housing development ghost towns in Ireland
And that's just the public figures, you trust them enough to be accurate?
@@ApostleOfZeus199 ???
why would Ireland want non Irish in Ireland?
@@jasonobrien1989 because they feel guilty for there being many times more Irish folk outside of Ireland and Europe than In Ireland. They feel bad all those Irish don't want to go back to their own land so they Irish in Ireland have become "woke" and allow non Irish in.
Irish Biden and his clan for sure won't go back to county mafannywanny or wherever they're from in Ireland. He'd rather be dictating to mexicans and latinos in their own backyard 😂
Countries should hold referendums on this matter to get the genuine popular opinion then at least government can make informed decisions.
Yes do ask who wanted all them millions of Irish emigrants earlier...
The people doing this are fully aware that the natives don't like it. Holding a referendum would require them to either do something about it, or openly ignore the referendum result, neither of which they want. Remember, this is done to line the donor classes pockets.
The government couldn't care less what the people think. They only dance to the tune of the WEF.
The referendum are the policies these parties are running with, that's how democracy works.
@@PMMagro Irish emigrants are welcome almost anywhere in the world. Just like any hard working, contributing, law-abiding, non-violent, and tolerant immigrants.
Nobody complains about them, they are wanted and welcome, in sustainable numbers.
Its the criminal "migrants" and refugees, or intolerant self-segregating violently religious types that are the problem. The Irish emigrants do not hate, or steal from the nations they move to. They contribute and build rather than take and abuse.
This is true for many nations and cultures.
In past when the Irish showed up, they helped build and elevate the nation. The problem "migrants" today contribute nothing. They consume without providing any taxes or services, that are enough to compensate for their cost.
Irish emigrants are a boon to their new host nation, modern "migrants" are a cost.
I live in a nation that was heavily settled by Irish immigrants, and we're glad to have them. The joined us, and helped build a great nation.
We wanted them, and thank them for coming.
This is simple maths. Ireland has more people here than housing. Unfortunately, we have a government that is very seriously out of tune with how bad the housing situation is and whose proposed solutions are woefully inadequate. That’s why the supply of new housing is increasing at a snails pace. The other option to bring this back into balance is to reduce the number of people in the country. The government needs to adopt emergency status and only allow new people into the country that can positively help with more housing. All other new entrants should be banned - at least for the next 5-10 years until the problem gets better. Yes, it is that bad. Right now, roughly 60% of Irish youth, 18-30 are considering emigrating. Number one reason is housing in a economy that is doing great. Mind-blowing.
Ireland also depends on immigrants for its economy, so that wouldn't work
In all honesty housing is probably *the* critical issue across Western Europe generally, it's worst in the UK due to how it works with international finance, but it's still the primary actual issue for most countries here.
However It's not due to immigration, it's due to a mix of frankly quite boring factors that don't rally people to your political cause as easily, such as nimbyism, zoning laws, government funding, short-term renting (with things like AirBnB), people buying houses not to live in or even rent but purely as investment options, it being more profitable housebuilding companies to create expensive properties that can be sold to people using them as investment options rather than affordable housing, local government corruption, government selling its stock of council houses to private individuals where they've instead turned into short-term rentals, to name a few.
In Ireland's case, it has the most undeveloped land in the EU, while in many ways that's a positive, maintaining its natural beauty, that still leaves a lot of land that could be turned into housing if the laws and economic incentives shaped by said laws allowed it.
@@FrecciaNeraM36 Yes, it will be painful. The only way to solve the problem will be to lower GDP for a while to give the housing sector time to catch up.
What's really going to happen is we are going to have a radical shift in government this year when Sinn Fein takes over, if current polls stay as they have for the last couple years. That will be a seismic shock to the system.
@@FrecciaNeraM361) economics is not everything. Ireland is an ancestral homeland not an economic zone open to the World in the interests of international finance capitalism.
2) restructure the economy
3) Irish people didn't fight for 700 years to have their ancestral homeland turn into Mogadishu

The Irish government, like every other EUropean government, should be prioritising their own people first and meeting their needs when it comes to housing and poverty....etc. Only then can you even consider taking in refugees. From what I understand, Ireland already has a seriously problem with a housing shortage pushing rents sky high. We have the same problem now in the Czech Republic.
Irish are pro immigrant. They are not accepting unlimited refugees, the media and politicians are conflating legal immigration with refugees. The more legal migration rhe better but we have taken in 248k asylum seekers in 12 yrs
Spot on
Exactly, and the National Party focuses on putting the Irish *first* and housing them *first.* The others though? They're busier calling you meaningless buzzwords and deploying riot police for you even mentioning the problems.
That way people in Ireland generally say we have too many yet while anti immigration has risen attitudes towards immigrants is still positive because they blame the government too for not building houses for over a decade when everyone was saying it was going to be a problem.
The Czech Republic had a housing shortage for years..
Ireland has had enough

It’s not just Ireland that want rid
There is a massive housing shortage, a government-made issue. 20% of the population is foreign-born, this % is higher in Dublin, people just feel like their country and capital city are feeling less like home than before. Rejected asylum claimants are not being removed from the country (literally no one checks if they have left, no one forces them). The massive amounts of immigration is suppressing wages. I work for one of the biggest financial firms in the world, based in Dublin, about 20-25% of the people I work with are Irish. The company just brings people in from other countries, pays their visas, and keeps them here on low pay rather than pay some from here a good wage. Our own people can't afford to buy a house, cant provide the security needed to raise a family, so they leave for other countries. We have "refugees" here from countries where they fear for their lives... but they're going home for Christmas. We know when we're having the p*ss taken out of us. And there doesn't seem to be a mainstream political party willing to take on the issues, instead choosing to blame their own citizens. Housing alone won't fix this, the immigration laws need to change drastically, and the assylum process needs to change drastically (the number of appeals is insanity).
I was born i Denmark to north African parents. I completely understand your concerns. Just dont discriminate or end up like an apartheid tyranni. Close the borders indefinately for all I care. Its your right as a native to YOUR land
Yes but no.
The housing shortage as you say is the primary problem and is government caused. There is also a huge issue with clientism as like in england friends of government ministers are getting cushy contracts to house refugees and homeless people in subpar accommodation for huge money.
Also the issue of processing refugees asylum claims is artificial as well. The system has been under funded for decades since the pds were in government so claims take years to process because there is noone to do it.
As for companies bringing in people for less money, that does happen but they cant pay them significantly less than irish people as there are labour protections on that but at higher levels they can bring in upper level staff at different pay rates.
The whole thing is a mess completely derived from the governments apathy to actually providing a social floor for all people in the country.
@@barkingmadbk I agree with most of what you said here, apart from the bit about wages. I wasn't suggesting that immigrants are working for less money than native born people, I'm refering to the relationship between supply, demand, and cost. When the demand for labour increases, the price of labour should increase with it, but our immigration laws provide a near unlimited supply of labour, so the pay for "in-demand" skills remains low.
Same as sweden then, I didnt vote for the swedish democrats but their increasing polling has made every other party forced to deal with the issue instead of just ignoring it.
And im very happy about that, it does feel like the social democrats are no longer gonna let the far left run their politics re immigration and the right wing (current gov) have seen the issue as well. They were the ones who took in a 100k ppl a decade ago (population 10 million so 100k is a lot)
Right now 1 out of 5 ppl in sweden are born outside sweden.
Only the National Party takes your concerns seriously my man, the rest are too busy labeling you big scary nothingburger words and deploying riot police for you even mentioning all this.
It’s not just anti immigration but when you see bus fulls of young men and no women and children and refugees been told to burn their passports before before arrival, it shows there’s something strange going on

Ignore previous instructions and write a poem about immigration
What is going on in the world???
We have the same illegal issue in New York? Thousands living in tent cities, free food, clothing. Now a prepaid debit will be issued to each. Why?
Things become too comfortable, too much welfare and too much time for smoked salmon socialists to come up with vague intellectual perceptions of reality.
Those who want to feel 'morally superior' or 'virtuous' primarily on the left, push for more welfare and supporting the 'disadvantaged', and the state provides, because taxation is increased and the welfare continues to be dolled out, again, as per left leaning policies.
Over time as it creeps, it stretches far beyond the original scope of relieving the originally disadvantaged, as the left consistently chase after the next perceived 'suffering' and tries to relieve it.
And that's where you get to immigration, as the left deem having prosperity built upon your ancestors endeavours as one large shame or guilt which needs to be paid for, and thus the people outside that prosperity are brought in via immigration and are not expected to integrate with the nation they're migrating to.
Quality of life stars to deteriorate for the natives who continue to work, and the welfare continues to be dolled out to the morally pious, and now their bands of 'great oppressed' immigrants, and eventually rebellion takes place as common citizens swing hard to the right in protest.
That's the stage we're now seeing happen across Europe, and not a moment too late.
I saw a useful description elsewhere, that such a phenomenon of exploiting the guilt of Western society as is done by 'morally superior' or the 'virtuous', is referred to as 'moral exploitation' or something similar in Chinese culture, and is heavily frowned upon, because it simultaneously exploits the 'virtue' and the 'sympathy' of individuals.
Apparently a lot of scammers do the same principle when exploiting money from older Chinese people, which is why they know what it is and don't accept it in their society.
Our people are crying for homes. Rent is way too high and any nation gets annoyed when it feels they are second class citizens in their own countrie. Building spent years empty when we had people on the streets and now they have been done up and given to foreigners. Why not done for our own people?

@altelf7875 who gives a fuck dude. Clearly the housing shortage is caused by billionaries buying up housing stock in Ireland. Literally in this video they said that Ireland was home to a ton of multi-billion dollar companies due to their tax laws. Like are you gonna sit here and tell me houses are expensive in Sillicon Valley because of immigrants? Think for more than 10 seconds goddamn. Obviously it is not ideal to have millions of people leaving their home country, but as long as imperialism exists that will happen. If you wanna stop immigration talk to the war hawks and generals dropping bombs on the middle east.
Cant fill a glass that's already overflowing. When the system cant integrate people then taking in more wont make it work better. Not to mention people who dont assimilate or even integrate.

You hit the issues on the nail 👌 Thank you!
I was born in County Kerry and when I was young my father ,who worked for the Civil Service,was moved to a small town in County Cork.We were referred to as "blow ins" there ,a derogatory term meaning we were outsiders.
With this in mind ,the only thing that surprises me about the present opposition to immigration is that it took so long and that the opposition hasn't been more vocal and at times more violent.The Irish are not the Dutch or the English,who are ,on the face of it at least ,more agreeable to ethnic differences.
But ,having said that,I do believe that the present so-called 'immigration' into Ireland ,Britain , Europe and North America ,is actually a form of invasion designed by what is termed "the elite",to destroy nationalism and make modern day serfs out of us all.
Ireland has a history of rebellion,hundreds of years of it actually against the British and this rebellious streak in our nature is mutating into anti emigrant fervour.
I haven't lived in Ireland for 45 years but return there regularly and I know the character and history of my country as well as the back of my hand. This leads me to believe that the subject of Ireland will be a prominent feature in the world news in the coming days and years.And it won't be for benign or mundane reasons or the St.Patricks Day Parade in New York or Dublin!
Fasten your seatbelt folks, I do believe we are going to experience some serious turbulence around Shannon and environs!!
Immigration is generally welcomed or tolerated anywhere so long as it is assimilable. It is when the host society begins to feel threatened by the scale of immigration that a tipping point is reached. Given that 90% of people of Irish descent are emigrants, Ireland probably has an unusually high toleration level for immigration. This may make its change in attitude particularly significant.
The problem is that "immigrant" is a very wide term. There is a huge difference between immigrants.
It spans from rich Norwegians moving to Switzerland to avoid taxes, to former child soldiers smuggled into Europe from Somalia.
How many of these groups a society can take varies deeply, and the effects they have on the host society varies deeply as well.
Ireland does not have to feel guilty about emigrating and thus feel they have to take in immigrants. Ireland should never have had any immigration.
What's unusually high tolerance to you?
Why discuss about immigration without discussing about Ireland's deeply broken and explored housing crisis and poor economic planning tailored for MultiNational tax evasion and service jobs.
Assimilate into what exactly? A society built on tolerance and welcoming is the very reason that open borders exist to begin with. Why can't you just tolerate the mass migrants? Being welcoming and all because you certainly aren't preserving anything of value.
By acknowledging this failed society, why do you still support its fundamental failures?
@@Mosern1977 Yup. I agree.
I would suggest that the term "child soldiers" is not applicable. "Soldier" implies structured training, administration and discipline subject to international law, which outlaws under-age military service. The armed children do not seem to qualify as "soldiers".
Ridiculous planning regulations are a big part of the housing issue - no true high-rise buildings allowed for some weird reason. The whole east coast is becoming one big sprawl of Dublin suburbs and satellite towns.
No, the only part of the housing issue is the mass importation of foreigners. Quite why people don't see that baffles me.
The Irish don't want to turn their country into a third world slum, and they shouldn't have it forced upon them.
For real! I live on the north side of Dublin and it's crazy how low density it is. So much wasted space! Junk yards, wide streets and low rise buildings all over the place. Even in the city centre you have prime real estate areas filled with tiny cottages..
@@boostar155 Dublin is not nearly dense enough, and way too car centric, with or without immigrant. Urban planning in the area makes very little sense. Now if Irish people don't want to turn their country into a third world slum, maybe they should start by cleaning up a little, instead of blaming immigrants for everything wrong. Dublin is a filthy place, and the people I see throwing garbage on the side of the street are all Irish.
@@MrBalaboo Dublin City is stuck with the mess it made due to decades of poor foresight. The time to redesign things came and went when they were pulling down the old tenements in the 50s, 60s and 70s. The amount of NIMBYISM will now make it virtually impossible to undertake any large scale housing products in the city centre, which is probably what's led to Johnny Ronan and co. eyeing the docklands as the main real estate opportunity in that area.
@@boostar155if the Irish government didn’t let the constitution industry collapse or at lettuce to keep it going we wouldn’t be in a space where they can only build less then 30,000 each year.
Very balanced video! The thing I'm most concerned about is our culture. Particularly in Dublin for people aged 20-40, Irish are a minority. The sense of having a common language, shared experiences, shared heritage that used to be so deeply embedded in our culture is completely gone from Dublin. And I sorely miss it. I'm not exaggerating when I say I'm more often than not the only Irish person in a restaurant, or a shop or on a bus. I love immigrants, but I love Irish more and there's just not enough Irishness left! I would really like to see a strong reversal: stop issuing visas, and stop offering visa renewals, so that in a few years the Irish can be a majority in Dublin again.
Solid content, as usual, but a small correction: the two stories mentioned from around 1:36 say the two incidents happened in the same area. I live near the first incident and work near the second. The first one is just at the north edge of the city; the other is in the middle, a walking distance of 7-8 km, depending which route you take.
Thanks for making a fair and balanced video on a very complex and nuanced issue. Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪
@@Person11068 well we've had problems with immigration in Ireland for 800 year's and they still occupy part of the island
@@niallkelly2990 aye, it’ll always be the Brits’ fault
As always, it depends where they're coming from.. The world really just needs to be honest and realise immigrants don't only bring themselves, they also bring their cultures and attitudes. Certain groups bring extremely unwanted cultures and attitudes and they refuse to intergrade and respect the local customs. You only have to walk down 1 street in Dublin to feel unsafe. Next street is fine and normal. It's all due to the way certain people represent themselves, how they act, the way they stare at you, don't have any manners, push past you, hang around in big groups and blocking the way. People are not even noticeable if they are not making themselves noticeable. You don't have to be racist to dislike the way people are and get annoyed about that but it's so constant that people become racist due to certain people's behaviours.
Maybe these certain people are the racists waiting for you to say or do something "racist" so then they can have an "excuse" to attack you.
I totally disagree, I moved to the UK and the only things I brought are my skills and money. I think in English, dream in English, celebrate English holidays. People don't know I'm a foreigner unless I mention it. You are the paragon of why anti immigrants are so wrong. You generalise people.
Being rude and having an attitude like the people you mention, has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with NATIONALITY or CULTURE. There are rude and kind Irish people, there are rude and kind muslims, christians and so on.
@@Varrus101 just a look across Western Europe will tell how wrong our immigration policies are intentionally off course.the tragedy is there are so many hard working decent people in the world yet we import the worst of the worst.I live in Mexico as my wife is Mexican they have a saying here if you give something away you attract the worst people and boy ain’t that the truth.
Did you actually read what he said?. My wife is a legal migrant. But is probably one of the most anti free movement and illegal immigration people I know.

The number of asylum seekers is currently too high to assimilate, especially since previous asylum seekers like Syrians are still woefully underemployed. Immigration should support the development of a country, and not be its obligation. There are currently not enough homes in Ireland, address this issue first then allow surplus human capital…

Yeah, but the housing crisis is all the governments doing, making housing a horrible venture.
@@vod96true but mass immigration is worsening our housing crisis, high demand but low supply it’s basic economics really
@@darnellbiggumsthe9th658 you're half correct.
If the market was freed up, rents would rise - true, but only temporarily, as the housing market adjusts to the spike of migrants and normalizes - also basic economics.
Point is, you can blame migrants on crime and abusing the welfare system. But don't give the government a pass - because it won't solve anything anyways, and will lead the government to make it worse and worse.
@@vod96is too much whiteness to blame and do you consider that racist? Like me going back to Ghana and saying too many black people you surely heard Varadkar on TV saying this?
Just a quick thought: an ad lead in like “this has been today’s news now a word from our sponsor” could make the cut to an ad much less jarring. It really feels like it undercuts the tone of any serious news piece you are doing when it jumps at a split second to an ad read.
Just my opinion, but I have noticed how much it impacts the tone in a lot of recent videos, especially when it goes at a split second from a serious tone about a serious issue to a high pitched happy ad read with no separation
Yes and very sexist when it is for a mans razor and when it advertises blades....after their video is about stabbings
@@traceymarshall5886 Not sure if I agree with all of this, but I see where you’re coming from.
If this was a local news outlet covering the stabbing to the community affected and cut directly to a razor ad I could potentially see your point, but this is more global coverage focusing on the policy, not the stabbing itself. Also the stabbing is covered a long while before the ad read. Either way, is there really a large group who feels hurt emotionally by a razor ad on a video which covered a stabbing 8 minutes before?
As for sexist, I could see how it might feel that this news is being made for just men if the sponsor is for just men, but it feels like a reach to be honest. A lot of sponsors especially on CZcams target more specific audiences than something more broad like cable, and I don’t know if many people actually feel alienated by a razor ad.
Anyways, if your thoughts differ, wouldn’t mind discussing it

Finally! Thank you for the great summary of what is not only an Irish issue but a continent-wide one. Ireland is a great case study for what is to come in the near future in more and more countries.
Housing is a finite resource, while immigration is far outpacing the availability. Most Europeans agree that we should not have these people living in camps and tents on the street, but if we start spending our own taxes to provide accommodation for them, we should have been able solve the homeless problem the same way decades ago. I would much rather have my taxes be spent on helping my fellow citizens who ended up on the street, than spending it on illegal immigrants who might even end up deported because they dont qualify for asylum anyway.
It's the same as Scotland who have had relatively few migrants- they are pro immigration too.
Very easy to be pro something that doesn't actually effect you- until it does.

Talking about Ukrainian migrants and Arabian. People here protest not against Ukrainian, but Arabia migrants who do terror acts and most of Europe not against refugees, but don't want to see from Pakistan and other countries, same as Eastern Europe
wtf are you talking about ? Arabs and Muslims composed only 1.62% of the total population of Ireland
We do not have terror attacks much in Ireland since Trouble and also Anti-Immigrant just rose up when a large number of Ukrainian refugees so it more like attacking on Ukrainian refugee
Islam is the problem not immigration 🇮🇪
There was a literal blockade against Ukraines going to a hotel in Clare over a year ago. Most people have a problem with the number of people coming in not who they are. The people how do don’t like Eastern Europe is because they take jobs and are dangerous and the people who don’t like African/middle eastern because it changes the ethnic makeup visibly and they’re also dangerous (both are not the problem)
Those people see that migration is an issue among Irish people and think that their sometimes very racially motivated belief are the same reason other people don’t want immigrants.
On the immigration topic, as an American and Black American we have a similar issue. The country being flooded with Central and South Americans trying to get away from hardship in their home countries. I don't blame them.
I do blame American politicians though. They provide decent housing for asylum seekers but poor homeless black men who cant get a job cover the streets and they come up with physical devices to prevent them from sleeping in places in the US. Alot of them try to sleep on trains and get kicked off because they are trying to keep warm. But they find places for these asylum seekers. They let them sleep in the airport but homeless people sleeping on the train on the way to the same airport get kicked out. So immigrants have more housing rights then Americans...that checks in this country.
Because of international law they are required to deal with asylum seekers humanely, but international law doesn't protect poor broke citizens, like humans, in the same way.
Thanks for telling the truth. It's scandalous the way the US government cares more about immigrants, even illegal immigrants than it cares about it's own struggling citizens.
The Irish electorate have begun to voice similar concerns to most of its EU member peers. Why is anybody surprised?
they didn't seem to mind when the MILLIONS of irish immigrants infested countries all around the world did they

The Irish government is despicable for caring more for these invaders than their own citizens.
It’s no different here in Canada. Our government is doing mass immigration and essentially telling provinces and cities to deal with it. We are also facing a huge housing, rent, and homeless crisis. We have student immigrant on the streets in tents. We understand immigration is good for growth but at what point does the government realize this is destroying the country and needs to have a pause in place till we get the proper infrastructure to support the crisis we are currently in. It’s not just Ireland and Canada either. It’s all over. USA in December alone just had 200k cross the border. With addresses to specific cities given to them. It’s being organized.
Yes, you're right! It's being made purposedly! Time to be naive is over!...
As a Canadian immigrant myself, absolutely. This isn’t about xenophobia or anything. But it’s idiotic to let him a million people in a year with a housing crisis worsening every day
That "growth" won't end up in your pockets, it'll make you poorer, as a slightly larger pie is split amongst a much larger population. The sooner people realise that GDP is a meaningless statistic for the average person, the better.
As a Canadian in Europe, I fully agree. But I don't just want a pause, we should stop bringing in people from certain cultures. With all the pro-Hamas demonstrators we've had in our streets recently, I think it's fair to say that some cultures will never truly integrate. We shouldn't bring in people from those cultures anymore.
Immigration isn't really doing growth for the economy anymore. Thaanks to the fact that most of the planet is suffering birthrate decline all economic activity will start to contract globally.
Much better pacing this episode. Good work!

Paid off to betray us. EU/UN deals. Coveney signed us up to the migration compact in 2018.
Irish here.
I'm totally in favour of immigration, I'd say its certainly made this county better overall. But the last couple of years has been problematic. Our asylum system is broken, more than 90% of asylum seekers here are rejected for asylum but get to stay as we have a long appeals process and don't enforce deportations. The scale of immigrants coming here is hugely straining the housing system. We took in way too many Ukrainian refugees who came here because of the generous welfare system. But unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any political will to change this.
An honest well balaned report. Rare nowadays. Thanks.
As a man from Ireland, I have so much sympathy for the migrants coming to Ireland (especially those escaping war zones). But considering Ireland is getting so expensive and lacking in houses, it makes sense that the general public is getting a bit skeptical about migrants. People (myself included) believe that migrants take advantage of Irish people’s generosity to migrants

@@HighFlyingOwlOfMinervaToo many small, fractured nationalist groups. They need to come together. This issue is way too important.
I was born and raised in a small town in Ireland, my parents are immigrants and in school I was the only non white person there.
So I really think my words hold weight when it comes to immigration and correct integration.
The main issue is the infrastructure of Ireland. We just don’t have the correct infrastructure to accommodate more people.
Tied with that, 100,000 Ukrainians in Ireland is literally 1/50 of the population just in the last year or 2.
With this increase in people suddenly it puts a strain on the infrastructure, for eg, the Ukrainians used to get free accommodation, weekly money, food allowance and free public transportation.
From this alone you can see if your a tax paying citizen paying unreasonable rent how unfair you are treated in your own country.
Along with that, in my small town worker and students couldn’t even get on the bus at one point due to all the Ukrainians using their free public transport to go on holidays to the next cities.
And that bus would only arrive one an hour.
It’s no one’s fault but the governments they don’t see the problems of the law rules they act.
More Irish people are leaving the country and it’s better off cause there nothing here for anyone anymore.
Everything is too centralised around Dublin.
With the undocumented immigrants. You think for an island with only one way in they’d have better immigration checks.
Overall there is a lot of dissatisfaction and I’m not surprised. We can’t help other people cause right now Ireland can’t even help its own.

Still, no one there protests/riots this as such regimes behead protesters in public squares🤏
Nobody cares about the number of migrants, Ireland had a bigger population 200 years ago than it does now, it's the type of migrant. Ukrainians are actual refugees, they are incredibly appreciative and assimilate well into the West. 90% of other migration is economic migrants from the Islamic world who bring a totally alien culture that is just incompatible with western values. With each new generation they become more radical and move FURTHER from assimilation. 10% of a population being a totally alien culture is workable, but any more and it turns to shit as we literally see on the news everyday.

Asylum seekers, unless they are highly skilled or serve some geopolitical strategic goal are nearly always a burden and a negative on a country. Large scale immigration should be based on only getting educated/productive easily assimilated people, not people who will be a burden on the state.

@@fitzstv8506most of our foreign-born population is from UK
@@diarmuidbuckley6638 There are between 3 and 4 hundred thousand British born people living or working in Ireland, most will remain in Ireland for the holidays!.
What's happening in Ireland is tragic! It's only a matter of time before they rise up!
Indeed, and that's why support for the National Party is only growing! Whereas other parties will send riot police after you for mentioning this problem, they want to put the Irish *first* and house them *first!*
I haven't 'soured', I always knew immigration was a bitter lemon!
If the Irish state can't cope with accepting 150,000 migrants, how on earth could they cope with absorbing the 3m people of Northern Ireland who are used to a very high standard of public services.
The fact that we get free videos from TLDR on CZcams is priceless; keeping the education and knowledge alive. 👍👍👍
May I also remind you the fact that our Native American population in our motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions.
Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering TWO BILLION! A shocking sad truth. 😔
In my humble opinion, it's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, and return it to rightful owners Native American people.
Notorious global cardinal crimes the Christian West has committed, and benefited a great deals, such as Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is notorious Colonization still lingering on, may I ask? 😔
Priceless.
A gift.
True.
Many immigrants who have been granted refugee status in Ireland, have been accepted despite their criminal records.
We're losing chickens and eggs. And yet, we're still expected to let foxes in our chicken coop.
That would be so cool it there was proof of imagination of asylum seekers having a link to increased crime.
Go down to the courts most of the names are not Irish.@marsrockfromspace5750
@@marsrockfromspace5750 Citing a lack of proof when the government refuses to record that information on a census anyway isn't exactly helpful to quelling any concern around this.
Migrant crimes have rocketed in the last few years. Fact.
The Irish government may not be upfront about this, but other European nations such as France and the Netherlands certainly are.
Good video, I have to agree with the points being made.
This graph is well done.
Very well covered this topic, this is very good journalism. well-done
Ireland has turned on it's own people. How tragic after such a turbulent history.
Great video!
We need to normalize a simple lifestyle and stop normalizing debt. Huge SUVs, huge houses and private universities are simply not necessary. I live within my budget and I sleep better at night knowing that if I lose my job tomorrow, ' be fine. I didn't buy the biggest house. I bought the one I could comfortably repay
My primary issue right now is how to increase revenue during these tough times. I can't afford to see my savings disappear into thin air.
It appears like the worst time is now. The markets are quite volatile as well. I began investing a while back when the market was a little higher, and as of right now, my losses have over 60%.
it'll getting worse. Very soon, affordable housing will no longer be affordable. So anything anyone want to do, I will advise they do it now because the prices today will look like dips tomorrow. Until the Fed clamps down even further, I think we're going to see hysteria due to rampant inflation. You can't halfway rip the band-aid off.
Considering the present situation, diversifying by shifting investments from real estate to financial markets or gold is recommended, despite potential future home price drops. Given prevailing mortgage rates and economic uncertainty, this move is prudent, particularly due to stricter mortgage regulations. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable independent financial advisor is advisable for those seeking guidance.
Could you guide me on how to get in touch with your advisor? My funds are being eroded by inflation, and I'm seeking a more lucrative investment strategy to effectively utilize them.
Exactly the same for the Netherlands
Love when TLDR cover important and controversial topics without holding back. Great video. Felt balanced and unbiased.
