The Irish Times is suggesting that the government understands there's a pull factor which contributes to the number of asylum seekers Ireland receives and that by demonstrating only tented accommodation is available here, we get fewer arrivals.
What's weird is back in 2020, Roderic O'Gorman assured us that promising asylum seekers their own homes within four months of arrival would definitely NOT incentivise more to arrive, following so-called 'expert advice' from Catherine Day's White Paper.
Abolishing the direct provision system and granting a blanket amnesty (which has created the need to open more direct provision centres than ever before) was a key demand of the Green Party to enter in the programme for government
O'Gorman also said he was committed to consulting with locals before dumping predominantly fake refugees in their community so the far-right bogeyman couldn't manipulate them into thinking it wasn't in their best interest — another big lie.

Minister Roderic O’Gorman has refused to rescind the contract for Magowna House Hotel and also refused to apologise for not consulting locals before dumping asylum seekers in it.
In a video with with the county’s Oireachtas representatives, O'Gorman also stated that he is not negotiating with the property owner about reducing the number of asylum seekers residing there.
He said a return bus service, which is due to operate once a day, is also due to come on stream.
Fianna Fáil TD Cathal Crowe told Clare FM that he isn’t convinced that locals will take much comfort from the answers given today.
The locals have indicated their intention to continue to man the blockade “until December” if it comes to it.

Curious lack of outrage from the media and NGO class for this attack on an LGBT student from Beaufort College in Navan. Maybe if faces of the assailants had been blurred... Apparently they only got a week's suspension. 🔗 twitter.com
NGOs when some diversity pets higher up the victim hierarchy stack engage in some gay bashing.

The 'revolutionaries' are now squatting at a property which is being redeveloped by charitable housing association to accommodate the elderly called the James McSweeney House on Berkeley St in Phibsborough.
>Mr Meagher said on May 12th last, the alarm was triggered after persons unknown broke in. A security officer called and found the front door blocked from inside.
>The officer tried unlocking the door, but the key broke in the lock and a locksmith was later unable to remove the broken key.
>When Cabhru's building and facilities officer arrived later that night , there were possibly five people inside "purporting to act as advocates" for those inside.
>One of them told the security officer he was "a revolutionary for the homeless", that this was a civil matter, and they would not get out, Mr Meagher said.
May 12th was the day their shanty town was cleared out in Sandwith Street.

The property in Dún Laoghaire which is being renovated to accommodate asylum seekers has been named as the former Senior College on Eblana Avenue in the centre of the town.
The Irish Times reports that sources suggest it may be some time before this site hosts people as significant works need to be done.
Looks to be quite a large site, capable of accomodating 500+ people. In 2020, TD Ossian Smyth said the site would be re-opening as an Educate Together school.
It was also revealed the warehouse in Airways Industrial estate in Santry will be accommodating up to 303 single men with the owner Goldstein Property securing an 89 week contract with the Dept of Equality.

I sent a text this morning to the Neil Prendeville, RedFm show and got a call back to go on and talk.
I know this is a heated topic at the moment and more and more people are realising the dangers of this ideology being thought in our schools.
Speak up parents. Protect your kids, they only get one childhood!

Security guard says he's not allowed to confirm if the large fence they're constructing around the former Johnson & Johnson unit in Ballybrit Business Park, Galway is because asylum seekers are to be accommodated there.
It was suggested during the week that the site will house up to 500.

I'm old enough to remember when they told us that the EU's temporary protection directive would only entitle people from Ukraine to live in Ireland for one year with a maximum two year extension.

In a tiny community in #Santry, the elderly residents are resisting the resettlement of over 300 young migrant men into their community. Some residents are in their 80's, yet they rise at 5.30am to protest.
Another example of an Irish community being ignored by their elected representatives @cllrdessieellis, @RoisinShortall, @PaulMcauliffe and @Fingalcoco.

A young man with Aspergers Syndrome and his brother were pounced upon by twenty foreigners after leaving the cinema in Armagh yesterday.
The foreigners who are being described as "Bulgarian-Romanian" had been in the cinema too where they had been pushing and shoving the man on account of his learning difficulties. A family member said he has the mind of a 9-year-old.
“It’s an absolute disgrace that you can’t even go to the cinema with your brother in your own town – he can’t even go to the cinema with his brother! It’s an absolute disgrace!”
