The Liberal is reporting that East Wall residents plan to “bring Dublin to a complete halt” today from 5pm after more asylum seekers were spotted being dropped off at the old ESB office.

A new statement from the East Wall Protest Committee after the government dumped more asylum seekers in the old ESB office:

"It is now in the mainstream news cycles that hospitals, schools, doctors and other services are at breaking point. Our population demand is growing three times faster than housing supply."

“The Government and entire Establishment class including all the State funded NGOs have clearly gone rogue in order to maintain so called ‘international obligations.’"

"It is now the government which seeks a seat at our table, and not us at theirs. In their moment of weakness, we will increase our activity...we will not be meeting any more political representatives until they accede to our demands."

"We call on the rest of the nation to form community groups and stand up against this madness. Join us in our protest. Stand with us and your community and shut this country down."

"The Irish people deserve better than the recklessness of open borders..."

A caller to Red FM made a Freedom of Information request to the Dept of Justice about the international protection applicants who have arrived this year.

While 11,142 asylum applications have been received up until the end of October, the FOI data he got only applies to 8,893 applications the Dept of Justice received from January to August.

In the next post I'll go over the information he received.

The caller asked for data on the last countries asylum seekers were in before arriving in Ireland from but the Dept of Justice doesn't keep it. He was only able to get their countries of origin.

I've posted before about how asylum seekers from Afghanistan, Somalia & Eritrea are now being expedited through the system and granted refugee status without requiring the usual process. I've since learned this also applies to applicants from Libya, Sudan & Yemen and continues to apply to Syrians.

It's possible some of those who are "losing their passports" are losing them in order to pretend to be from these countries.

While it's useful to highlight the massive amount of asylum seekers whose applications have been rejected over the last 25 years yet are rarely deported to expose the fraud in the system, Irish people cannot be expected to accommodate limitless numbers of those whose claims are accepted if they never return home (except on holiday).

Asylum seekers who are granted refugee status or subsidiary protection can apply for family reunification. All parties in the Dáil except Fine Gael support expanding the scope of this scheme so that refugees can bring in grandparents, cousins, nephews, nieces and siblings as they were allowed to do before 2015. Before the scope of this scheme was reduced, Minister David Stanton said the average number of family members each refugee was applying to bring in was 20. Right now they can only apply to bring in parents, spouses and children under 18, but that can change.

You can apply for Irish citizenship three years after you make your asylum application if it is accepted. Those who are granted subsidiary protection or Leave To Remain can apply for Irish citizenship after five years.

Here are the population figures for the six countries mentioned at the top:

🔹 Afghanistan 39.84 million
🔹 Somalia 16.36 million
🔹 Eritrea 6.081 million
🔹 Libya 6.959 million
🔹 Sudan 44.91 million
🔹 Yemen 20.49 million

That's 131 million people who can potentially travel to Ireland, apply for asylum and will likely be granted refugee status or can be brought in using the family reunification scheme.

We are a small island of 7 million people.

You'll often hear the argument "Irish people were migrants too".

The Irish who remained in Ireland to struggle and fight for their nation didn't migrate anywhere, and we are their descendants. We are under no obligation to be displaced by unlimited foreigners.

We need another solution and I still think this idea is best one.

Three Afghan migrants have been convicted by an Austrian court for the rape and murder of a 13-year-old girl called Leonie in Vienna who was found dead, wrapped in a carpet next to a tree in 2021.

The judge presiding over the case said: “They used the girl like an object and showed indifference to Leonie’s life.”

The court found that the migrants had mixed seven ecstasy tablets into a drink and given it to Leonie to drink, so they could rape her. The autopsy revealed that she had died of both overdose and suffocation. The men all admitted to sexual activity with Leonie but insisted it was consensual during the trial.

One of the suspects fled the country following the killing and was not arrested until weeks later when he was discovered in London.
