At first glance, Ireland might appear to be relatively immune from the wider European conversation on increasing defence spending. But nonetheless it appears in a vulnerable position. In this video, we’re taking a look at Ireland’s military, why it’s considered to be a ‘weak link’ in Europe, and how this might change.

no worries, the Irish govt have a plan to silence dissent by telling Irish taxpayers they have a moral obligation to provide for the upkeep of unlimited numbers of asylum seekers (inc. €1m per month on Ukrainian's pets) amid a chronic housing crisis and record homelessness levels; raiding the houses of local councillors who criticised them and accusing politicians of being dangerously divisive for pointing out that an Irish pensioner was threatened with prison and having his home demolished for putting a cabin on his own land while they by-pass planning regulations to provide rapid-build modular housing on state land for non-Irish people with Irish tax-payer money; refusing to answer questions re. who owns the lands they are building refugee housing on and how much public money is being funneled into the pockets of wealthy contractors; refusing to give information to the local communities and dismissing their concerns as being down to 'racism'; staging PR stunts like putting mothers and children first off the bus in Roscrea and re-routing a Dublin protest march forcing the protestors to walk past a crowd of counter-demonstrators in hopes of instigating a clash for the cameras; walking off stage when they are asked a question by a journalist they don't want to talk to; and talking up the threat from the 'far right', (even though the grassroots protests springing up in towns and villages are so unco-ordinated and leaderless that some have accidentally marched in the wrong direction on occasion); removing the horses of the Coolock lads; and erecting barriers on Mount Street to block rough-sleeping asylum seekers from pitching tents en masse and disperse them to other less visible areas of Dublin away from the gaze of the world media

UK's Rwanda scheme is disgraceful, and the UK should be taking it's fair share of refugees, just like every EU country. However I get this issue may be the fault of the EU as well, as the the UK doing this because France is not accepting refugees back. So I can understand why the UK may behave this way if the EU is being difficult in other aspects.

If Ireland send just 1 person back to the UK, we should put EVERY asylum seeker on a plane and return them straight to France or boats if they refuse to let our planes land. You cannot have this kind of hypocrisy where the EU states we cannot return illegals yet Ireland says it can…..no thanks!
