Declan Burgess, a Fine Gael councillor in Cashel, has said he is seriously concerned about the government's intention to accommodate 74 asylum seekers at Cashel Town Hostel on the main street as the decision leaves Irish citizens in the South Tipperary area with no emergency homeless accommodation.

This leaves people and their families in a homeless situation in dire straits. The Department have failed to engage with the County Council in a constructive way...This decision contradicts the homeless efforts in the county.

A redditor suspects a high profile refugee transporter wanted to lodge a Ukrainian mother & child in his parents' apartment so he could have an affair with her.
"Upon hindsight, it's painfully clear to me that he was so eager to get them into comfortable accommodation close to his own house so he can get the ride."

Helen McEntee has promised not to deport illegals if they are victims of human trafficking. Instead, dedicated accommodation will be provided to them. Organisations other than gardaí will also now be allowed to identify potential victims into a national referral mechanism.
>The first accommodation has been identified and is being developed, she said, but obviously it will not be enough to accommodate everyone.
According to the US State Department, the Irish government has never convicted a human trafficker, but you can expect the numbers of their 'victims' to increase.

Speaking to Tipp FM in Cashel this morning local business woman Alison de Vere Hunt said there is already a sense of fear among the local community.
“People are ready to stand and barricade the end of John Street and the top of John Street and Agars Lane because people are afraid if these men come in there’s no getting them out. It’s prevention rather than cure is I see what’s on a lot of people’s minds.”

Ukraine in the EU
Irish Farmer
An Irish farmer shares his thoughts on war being wound down in Ukraine and what it will mean for European farmers for Ukraine to join the EU:
👉🏻 join Late Stage Ireland
💬 They will be entitled to various subsidies, payments, grants etc, and they reckon it will reduce payments to European farmers by an average of 30 per cent — the pot isn't getting bigger to take them in, it's going to just be spread more.
💬 Who are these Ukrainian farmers? It turns out they're all massive corporations...and last year Zelenskyy sold one third of the country, which he equated to about the landmass of Italy, to Carlyle Group, BlackRock and Bayer (formerly Monsanto). That's who we're going to be paying subsidies to. They have to get their money back.
💬 I don't think Russia will give two fucks about Ukraine joining the EU especially as he knows it's going to weaken us and hit farmers on the ground hard.

🚨 Community Alert for Co. Clare
A Clare father says there was an attempted child abduction made on his 13-year-old daughter in Shannon last Thursday when groups of foreign men, who were driving around the town in a convoy of three cars, tried to grab her into one of them.
Their exact words to her, he says, were "get the F— into the car now!"
The teenager panicked and ran, managing to escape through a gap in a hedge into her friend's house whose mother drove her home safely.
The boxer, originally from Limerick, said he's very frustrated with the gardaí who he believes have done absolutely nothing to address the incident except harass him about taking down facebook posts he previously made about the matter.
One of the cars the men were driving was a white VW Passat. Another was a black Audi A4. He has a photo of one of the registration plates and one of the suspects when they stopped at the Texaco service station.

Kerry councillors beg Roderic O'Gorman not to send 70 more asylum seekers to Killarney, but Cathaoirleach Cllr Brendan Cronin says it appears unlikely he will reverse the decision.
"We are at capacity health-wise, GP-wise and education-wise and if the Minister and IPAS continue, they will cause chaos. GP’s can't take on families who live here and have bought a house here. We are bursting at the seams,” he said.
He said that ‘some onus’ must be put on property owners and IPAS to check if there are suitable services for asylum seekers before they are sent to a town.
Local GP Dr Gary Stack has also confirmed that the asylum seekers may have trouble sourcing a GP as they already can't cope with the workload.
Serious concerns have also been raised about the impact on the tourism industry.

'People do not feel safe on the streets in Roscrea.'
The dramatic influx of of asylum seekers in Roscrea has eroded the sense of security in the town, Deputy Michael Lowry has warned the Dáil.
The independent TD for Tipperary, who resigned from Fine Gael in 1996 over corruption later investigated by the Moriarty Tribunal, emphasised that in Roscrea, the Garda Station remains closed at night, which is exacerbating the public sense of vulnerability.

The numbers are totally disproportionate to the local population. The vital services in the town cannot cope and are stretched way beyond capacity"
By degrees, the lives of local people have been changed. Reoccurring incidents have eroded the sense of security in the town. People do not feel safe on the streets. Parents are fearful of allowing their teenagers out after dark. Families and older people have had to increase security in their homes

Cashel Plantation
Tipp FM
Just to give a sense of the opposition on the ground in Cashel to 74 asylum seekers being dumped in a hostel, here are two of the locals Tipp FM interviewed on the street on Monday. They don't hold back yet still do the 'I'm not racist' bit.
Cashel was successful in getting this plan shut down because 500 people came out immediately to organise against it due to a strong sense of community. Towns without get railroaded. They've heard the horror stories from around the country and shared them.
They also had a sympathetic local media who gave them a whole hour on the morning show.
It's also clear a lot of politicians are worried about the elections coming up.

Our country is being destroyed up and down the country. We are the next Sweden if we don't get our act together very quickly.
Some of these people are coming from countries where they have no respect about women or girls in particular and that has been expressed to me by women in this town. There's a palatable terror here.
