A "multi-agency operation" is supposed to sound like its some sort of dynamic project inspired by creative thinking and visionary leadership.

All it actually means is tossing a load of tents into a bin truck, then paying an NGO to supply new tents to the migrants that evening.

It was once customary for tribes to display the severed heads of their enemies on pikes to ward off further intrusion on their territory.

This is the modern equivalent.

The Grand Canal bank along Warrington Place was fenced off yesterday so over thirty tents moved up to Herbert Place last night. They're still there today.

Taoiseach Simon Harris calls this a 'Team Ireland' response.

Roderic O'Gorman being asked repeatedly why the government is funding the provision of tents to asylum seekers, only to then fund their removal when they set them up.

He sounds broken and says he doesn't go on social media much any more because of the level of viciousness.

Gavin Pepper is the first candidate I've seen campaigning for an Irish Rwanda style plan. People want real world solutions and Pepper is showing leadership proposing one. 👏

While it's true that a Finglas-Ballymun councillor won't be in a position to implement such a policy, this is seeding the idea into the public consciousness and we will need public representatives at all levels to get it done. The only alternative being discussed is more migrant camps on more public land.

Forty percent of the public already support a Rwanda plan. That number will grow and they need representation. Popular councillors can often subsequently be elected to the Dáil where they can then drive the real change needed too.

A migrant camp has now been spotted on Sandymount Strand.

This will compound the pollution problems in the area caused by the overloaded Ringsend wastewater treatment plant which is releasing untreated sewage into the sea due to rapid population increases in Dublin and beyond.

Dublin City Council has closed the southside beach to swimmers for the entire summer as the water could cause illnesses.

Things move fast in the prestigious Dublin Bay South. Ivana Bacik and Hazel Chu wouldn't have it any other way, especially with elections less than four weeks away.

Here's the government's vision: Find plots of land to move 250 migrants into own-zip accommodation every week, indefinitely.

They could stop it tomorrow by just making a Rwanda type deal.

They've estimated the cost of supplying just 10,000 beds for asylum seekers over 20 years at €5 billion while we are on track to be accepting 30,000 asylum seekers in 2024. We could spend a fraction of that accommodating them somewhere in Africa.

Once bogus asylum seekers understand they will be shipped out, they'll stop arriving and the ones here will mostly self-deport so you'll only end up paying for the tiny number of genuine cases to be relocated.

Immigration—the biggest issue on the doors. It's no longer a taboo. Housing, healthcare, schools and services are all overburdened because of immigration and the public know it, and aren't afraid to say it.

Largest numbers from Georgia, Brazil, Pakistan and Albania. They come in hoping to catch her next blanket amnesty because they know she's incapable of deporting anyone.

It's the number of legal ones I'm more concerned about though—250,000 in 2022 alone!

All the talk about Russia trying to interfere in Irish elections, meanwhile, a Ukrainian who only arrived here in 2022 stands to be a public representative in Killarney if she can manage to get a fraction of the 3,000 Ukrainian and asylum seekers who have taken over 40% of the tourist accommodation in the town out to the polls on June 7th.

This is what election interference looks like.

The Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission is an NGO funded by the UK government analogous to our IHRC.

Today they were successful in getting a Belfast High Court judge to rule that the UK's Rwanda Plan could not apply to migrants in the north because it breaches the Good Friday Agreement. This means asylum seekers in Britain who wish to evade the Rwanda plan can get the boat over and don't even have to make it to Dundalk.

Lawyer Sinéad Marmion from the NIHRC was ecstatic about the judgment.

"This is a huge thorn in the government's side and it has completely put a spanner in the works."

You probably recall that immediately after the Good Friday Agreement was signed, it was a so-called a loophole which was also responsible for Ireland to be flooded with pregnant women from Africa and beyond seeking birthright citizenship for their children after filing bogus asylum claims to deliver them here.

You get the feeling it was all deliberate.

Breaking News.... Ireland First election candidate Philip Dwyer delighted to announce peace agreement with Canine representatives prior to election campaign.

Say if it really was unfeasible for the national broadcaster to give every EU candidate equitable airtime, a fairer solution would be to conduct polls to determine which are top ten favourite candidates in each electoral area and invite them to debate.

Better still, if the public has repeatedly told pollsters that their top concern is say immigration, a selection of candidates who represent these concerns should be invited to the debate table. Likewise if support for independent candidates is now beating traditional parties, their voices should be given a platform.

Instead, they craft this convoluted criteria designed to keep non-regime-approved candidates out. They claim to be the guardians of democracy. They are the subverters.
