The vast majority are not refugees at all but people who simply throw away their documentation as soon as they arrive in Ireland and claim refugee status. It sidesteps a few rules and they are given the benefit of the doubt until they wind their way through the legal system.<br /><br />It works like this. Open borders throughout Europe. The French, British etc move them along and won't accept them as refugees just on their say so. Ireland has. Their ultimate destination is Ireland anyway as the benefits are terrific. In order to work the system they need to dispose of their paperwork. This is for non EU residents. Regular immigration is mostly from Romania and Poland. When things started to fall apart the Poles were abandoning their leased cars in Dublin Airport much like Europeans and Dubai airport when they blew up financially.<br />The Romanians have stayed as they had nothing to go back to. Romania should just be absorbed by their neighbors. It's too messed up for too long to fix. To describe it as a filthy rotten hell hole would be too kind to Romania. The fact that the people flee the country shows they are still somewhat sane. The fact that they know nothing about working for a living is not their fault. But teach a man to fish etc etc. rather than just give him the fish. <br /><br />I have nothing against anyone moving anywhere as long as they are willing to integrate and participate. Arriving anywhere with the intention of suckling on the state is immoral. For the state to allow it for political correctness is obscene. <br /><br />As regards genuine refugees it's usually a shared world responsibility. Everyone takes whatever amount they can reasonably absorb if they want to. Back in the 70's onwards Ireland would take a few hundred a year and spread them out across the country. Once the Celtic Tiger kicked in then it was a flood of "refugees" and immigrants. Some integrated and others live in mini ghettos. Nothing as bad as the UK in the 80's and 90's or today in Holland, Sweden, Germany, France etc etc. <br /><br />Fascism and other extreme isms are alive and well in Europe. <br />It's only a matter of time before extremists will be viewed as the only ones representing the peoples views because they actually are. <br />Whether that is Front National (Nazi) in France or Sinn Fein (Political face of the IRA) in Ireland. <br /><br />I might do a post on all the Euro members this weekend or at least do it in stages with potential flash points.Louis Cypherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670126160101669248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5673441815180854503.post-17443342982755521142011-05-14T01:02:00.171+01:002011-05-14T01:02:00.171+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.GM Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09133132062816684129noreply@blogger.com
