This cultural centre on Eglinton Street in Galway could be about to get a lot more, eh...cultural.

Funny how their concern for women and children's safety is only for the occupants of the Citywest Hotel, as if whatever threat posed to them from among the single male asylum seekers also staying there could be confined to it. 🤔

Who is behind the pop-up NGO East Wall Here For All? | The Burkean

I was reading the posts on a new Bundoran facebook group about concern over the number of asylum seekers dumped in the area with the McEniff dynasty being a prime beneficiary (imagine my shock).
First thing that stands out is how scared a lot of the members are about discussing the problems.
The admin is at pains to point out that 'biased comments', 'yellow-vesting' (😂) and 'hatred/racism' will not be tolerated. Comments from members often get prefaced like this:
🔹 "Im not one bit against people coming in to town, but this is a joke bundoran is killed."
🔹"Refugees welcome in Bundoran but we are FULL FULL FULL"
🔹"I welcome all cultures but..."
🔹"Bundoran has always welcomed people of all nationalities but..."
I could hear Anton Chigurh in my head — "If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?"
This desire to be seen as kind-hearted is something the regime takes full advantage of, but it's increasingly clear that it's a tactic stretched to its limit.

One thing to remember about Bundoran is half the town are people who came as actual refugees when the troubles broke out, that's why half the town has Belfast accents, so that's a complication.

This "Irish role" is two Romanians who used multiple fake IDs to open bank accounts here and launder their takings, but it's impressive how The anti-Irish Times managed to distort this fact for the headline. Wonder if Conor Pope wrote it...

Say what you will about boomers, but in general, they were able to keep things running and were competent to some degree at their jobs.
Now we're at the stage where people like this are being selected for in terms of the Irish ruling class. They are more interested in ideologies like this rather than getting the job done and keeping things working.
Think of any job you have had.
Who is going to keep things working?
From an objective, competence, (forgot ideology or political beliefs for a second) who is more competent?
Mid 70s Stickies Labour? Or 2020s woke labour?
This is one of the reasons (a bit of a white pill) why a lot of these organizations won't be able to function over time. They simply won't have the competence to do so.
