Authorities in Germany are raiding people’s homes for ‘online hate speech’.

This included someone who highlighted the hypocrisy of politicians, another man who called a journalist “stupid,” people who misattributed quotes, and other who made fun of people in authority.

Hate speech laws don’t protect the weak, they protect the powerful.

The Government expects no let-up in the flow of asylum seekers into Ireland in the near future, with Minister for Justice Helen McEntee calling the increased numbers “a permanent change”.

>There have been about 10,000 applications for international protection in Ireland so far this year, compared with 3,000-4,000 in previous years. This is on top of the 50,000 Ukrainian refugees currently staying in Ireland. It is estimated, based on current trends, another 10,000 will arrive from Ukraine before the end of the year.

>“I think it’s just a representation of the changing environment, a changing world and many global challenges that people are facing, including climate and war. So we need to be able to respond.”

What it's really a representation of is the government's complete failure to tackle asylum fraud, and the decision instead to incentivise the abuse by offering free homes within four months of arrival to anybody who can cross the border and mouth the word 'asylum' with the knowledge they will be allowed to stay regardless when they inevitably fail their application.

But even if they were all genuine, the Irish people are under no obligation to be displaced by unending streams of foreigners who never go home (except on holiday). That is a real crime against humanity.

>The Minister was speaking on Wednesday following the announcement in the budget of an additional €18 million in funding to speed up the process of applying for refugee status and “to reduce the risk of people remaining in the system for long periods with uncertainty about their status”.

How about putting some money towards deporting at least the failed ones instead? Try that approach and the numbers arriving would plummet.

11,946 Brazilians are registered to vote in Brazilian elections in Ireland.

That's up from 2,111 who were registered in 2018, a 465% increase.

A majority of Brazilians in 2018 voted for Bolsonaro who won the overseas vote with almost three times the total votes of his then rival Fernando Haddad.

In 2018, RTÉ told us there were 25,000 Brazilians living in Ireland so only a small percentage bothered voting. Most of the Brazilians one RTÉ reporter spoke to in Dublin told her that they were happy with Bolsonaro's election as president and hoped it would move Brazil on from the country of poverty, corruption & violence they left behind.

However, the 2016 census recorded 13,640 Brazilians. 9,846 of those were living in Dublin county with 7,986 living within the city.

I've talked before how the census does not accurately reflect the number of migrants living here and that the media know this and are able to quote figures from some undisclosed source when they want to, but then still rely on the census data to tell us what percentage of the population are migrants, knowing it's bad data.

Anyway, what explains the huge increase in the voter turn out?

Political scientist André Rosa had this to say on one of the Brazilian news sites:

“The profile of Brazilians who left the country in the last four years is very different from the one who already lived abroad in the 2018 elections. In addition, there is a much more competitive opponent to Bolsonaro, former President Lula”. Rosa also aded that many former Bolsonaro voters abroad were disappointed in him and promised not to repeat their votes.

It's probably true, and a changing profile in Brazilian immigrants could explain why the toilets in the Dublin Marks & Spencer's became a gay Brazilian sex den in recent years. However I'd say there was a big effort to get the vote out too.

I heard RTÉ's coverage yesterday morning and the host couldn't hide how giddy she was at the projection that Lula would win the election. They had an English expert on as usual assuring her this would be the case. It was a noticeable difference to the sombre mood at Montrose when Meloni was projected to win in Italy.

There was only one location where Brazilians could vote: The Erin School of English on North Great George's Street in Dublin city which had 16 boxes to collect the votes. So that's why the queue was massive.

As for the result, there are two sets being shared around online about the result in Dublin.

One set claims the vote share spread as follows:

🔹 Lula: 73.80%
🔹 Bolsonaro: 17.51%
🔹 Others: 8.69%

Another set claims Lula received 6,307 votes while Bolsonoro received 1,112, while 'Other' is unlisted.

These sets don't match up though and I can't find an official count.

The second round of the Brazilian election will now occur on Oct 30th as no candidate reached over 50% of the vote.

With 99% reporting, the complete results are:

🔹 Lula: 48.4%
🔹 Bolsonaro: 43.2%
🔹 Tebet: 4.3%
🔹 Ciro Gomes: 3%

123 Million votes were cast but 5 million were spoiled (4%) — all counted electronically. There are accusations of subversion.

So it wasn't the outright victory Lula supporters were banking on and a tight win on the the 30th while still likely is no sure bet. Lula supporters are disappointed in the result.

Elsewhere in Europe, Lula won in every European country except Greece. Bolsonaro also took the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Mozambique and the Dominican Republic. Lula won everywhere else.

45,273 Brazilians were registered to vote in Lisbon.
Porto, also in Portugal, has 30,098 registered voters.
Paris has 22,629 registered Brazilian voters and the UK has around 35,000.

So aside from Portugal, Ireland does have large Brazilian population for our size.
