"It's the right thing to do" - Neale Richmond
The Irish Government has increased its foreign aid budget by €14m to €855m. Ben Scallan asks Ministers Helen McEntee and Neale Richmond what they'd say to members of the public who feel the Government prioritises the world over its own citizens.

Nail Bars Human Trafficking has been covered extensively in UK MSM for at least 6 years. Yet even mentioning it in Ireland until last week would have you labeled as a "Far Right racist conspiracy theorist". Why did the Irish Government mass import well documented modern slavery?
Gardaí have warned that staff wearing masks at nail bars might be using them to cover up the fact that they are victims of human trafficking. newstalk.com/news/human-traf…

1🧵For 18 days Irish News ignored @gavpepper85 viral "42% Non-Irish on Dublin Social Housing waiting list" data Then the day after @M_Dorgan grilled Micheal Martin about it on @FoxNews, NewsTalk rushed on Keire Murphy "migration expert" to SPIN recent 1 in 3 allocations as~1 in 4

8🧵Keire Murphy ex-ESRI (22-26) led annual reports on migration and asylum, "covering access to housing for refugees". Before ESRI she wrote this article for WEF. "Why the world must protect Afghan refugees" "Durable Solutions" "resettle refugees permanently in richer countries"

9🧵So 1 in 3 Dublin 2025 Social Housing allocations went to Non-Irish. That's 33% .. and it is rising! 2023 = 22% 2024 = 28% 2025 = 33% It's Not 27% .. and Not ~1 in 4 1 in 3 FACTS Do you think 1 in 3 is too high?

oops 🤭.. Micheál Martin just called all asylum seeker "Illegal Migrants". In his first hardball interview in years, under pressure from Cork's own @M_Dorgan on Fox News, Micheál had a bit of a Freudian Slip and told us how he really thinks. Simon won't be to happy.😭🤣

I searched #WalkOutForWomen National Campaign on X, and only found 3 "walkouts", FG FF and fake opposition SF. TD's ... when you are the boss, you're not "walking out" you're just "going out" ... And if you do it, "for women", while importing gang rapists you're also gaslighting.
Violence against women continues to be a serious problem in Ireland. That’s why Fine Gael took part in #WalkOutForWomen, a national campaign calling for solidarity, awareness and urgent action to tackle violence against women in Ireland.

Micheal Martin was first elected a TD in 1989. In 1989 the native population of Ireland was in the mid-90th percentile with non-native share largely coming from the UK, US & Europe. Today, officially (unofficially is another story), 23% of people in Ireland were born outside the state. Martin says Ireland is not 'overrun by immigrants'. Yet in the span of his political career, Ireland went from one of the most homogenous nations in Europe and the West - a feat maintained over centuries - to one of the most 'diverse'. Whatever way he wants to phrase it, he cannot deny that he has been part of, and for stretches overseen, one the most profound demographic experiments in human history.

When Us citizen Jamey Carney was murdered by a failed asylum seeker, Irish news media legally could not identify him. In 2026 Micheal Martin extended the maximum punishment for doing so to 3 years in prison. So he is opposed to linking crime to nationality
1🧵🇮🇪We are not a normal country. ASYLUM SEEKERS have LIFE TIME confidentiality in Ireland Irish law is far stricter than EU Law (It's a domestic choice) Even countries known to hide details reporting crimes, will give ALL DETAILS of asylum seekers in MANHUNTS (vid images in🧵)

When the Irish Govt funded a multimillion euro, revisionist documentary to inform us we were actually "always mongrels", ..they were aligning with the same views of Tory aristocrat Jacob Rees-Mogg. Worth noting he also said the English mongrels may soon have to go to war and die.
To those of you who say it’s DNA that makes you English, I would say this: You don’t know what you’re talking about. Our DNA is already mixed up. Have a look at your own DNA. Dare I say, you want to take the beam out of your own eye before you take the mote out of the eye of others. We English are not, and nor should we be seen as, some eugenically pure island race. We are a people who have values and culture and strengths and liberties. People who join that should be incorporated in it and encouraged in it, rather than made to feel foreign. But I would say to those who come here and wish to maintain their culture, that they are making a grave mistake. They have come here because of the strength of Englishness. They should join in with it and not hold themselves out as something separate. The condition for coming is to become English, to be part of this great enterprise, not to remain a foreigner in these lands. ✍️ Jacob Rees-Mogg Article | spectator.com/article/the-en…
