74.5% of non-EU applicants on the waiting list for council housing are *failed* asylum seekers. Not people who've been given refugee status or even subsidiary protection. We reward people for abusing the system.
The fact that many people are probably secretly harbouring similar sentiments is indicative of the fact that many people have concluded that democracy is currently incapable of ousting a left-liberal deep state hostile to their security & well being. We live in perilous times.
Anyone else hoping for a military coup? 🤷♀️
i heard an expert on NPR say, "contrary to popular belief, AC does not actually cool the room, it cools the AIR in the room," and i'd like to take this opportunity to say NPR, you need to be on your absolute best behavior right now.
Matt Ridley, The Economist's ex-science editor, comprehensively deconstructs the climate agenda: "We know that in the medieval period, it was warmer than today... So we're not in a period of unprecedented warmth." "We're not in a period of unprecedentedly fast warmth. We're…
Mass starvation is stalking Gaza and children are starving before our eyes. We need an immediate and permanent ceasefire now. Israel must lift its blockade on aid and Hamas must release the hostages. The genocide must stop.

Having encouraged them to come, we are now wasting billions on housing illegal migrants a group who - even if they manage to find work - are a net lifetime drain on the national finances. This isn't merely idiotic; it's society-scale vandalism.
22/ To conclude, targeted immigration could be economically beneficial, however current immigration policy is evidently a negative for European nations. For more information, read my Substack article on the topic thecompositeguy.substack.com/p/has-immigrat…
No doubt well intentioned, but this letter reflects too-common delusions and, frankly, narcissism that exists in Ireland about the country's role in the Middle-East. 'It is beyond time to revive the Ireland-US diplomatic and political exchanges of the John Hume era. Not all…
⚡🇵🇱 MEP Dominik Tarczynski: "China is laughing, China is laughing at you. Russia is laughing, India is laughing. You know why!? Europe is responsible for 7% of global pollution - China is responsible for 30%, but Madame Von der Leyen wants to save the planet with our money."
It's unequivocally peak human experience and the framing of it as an onerous burden is a conspiracy against humanity that could only succeed in a world in which florid narcissism had already become endemic. To miss out on it is to be absolutely diminished in a way that nothing…
You know, at the end of the day it is exactly what it sounds like. There's a little person in your house with high needs who really, really loves you and you are responsible for her being okay 24/7. Is that a delight or a horror? You tell me
JD Vance is simply saying out loud what almost every European knows to be true yet not a single politician has the balls or honesty to say.
🇪🇺🇺🇲 Vice President JD Vance: “The biggest threat to Europe is their politicians importing millions and millions of unvetted foreign migrants!”
In Europe, thousands are being convicted for the crime of criticizing their own governments. This Orwellian message won't fool the United States. Censorship is not freedom.

Men are a hated out-group in progressive liberalism, but the sexes are inseparable and interdependent, and the psychological result of those two facts together is becoming pretty grotesque
1/2 Thousands of words. I read this so you don’t have to. tl;dr is that in a certain social milieu men have become skittish and disinterested and women are frustrated because they don’t know how/ aren’t able to lure them back in.
The asylum system is enabling the flow of tens of thousands of people who immediately become a lifetime net economic drain on the country. This change is permanent. And 2nd and 3rd generations are actually worse.
Ireland needs immigrants. But our economy can’t accommodate an infinite number - mailchi.mp/davidmcwilliam…
A tactic used by some Irish organizations is to highlight the absence of citable evidence (due to lack of data collection) to dismiss concerns. For example, Ireland doesn't record nationality in crime statistics. Headline: "There is NO EVIDENCE some migrants linked to crime!"
There is "no evidence" of a link between negative attitudes towards immigration and pressure on services such as housing and health at a community level, according to a new ESRI study. thejournal.ie/esri-immigrati…
⚡🇪🇦 Spanish MEP Jorge Buxade presents 10 measures to wipe out islamism from Europe and announces ‘the biggest deportation plan ever known’ “Massive illegal and uncontrolled immigration is a crime and a threat to the survival of Europe.” MEGA 🇪🇺🇪🇺
Okay, I'll answer both of those questions. My position has been made crystal clear many times and it is rather simple. The planet has warmed by about 1.2°C since 1850, although we don’t actually know the precise number because of poor data quality in the early part of the…
Rather than sift through your profile and posts - maybe start with: Do you accept that Humans are contributing to 'global warming' aka climate change? Do you accept that higher concentrations of C02 have a negative impact on our climate? (as high ppm = higher heat trapped)?
We're blowing billions facilitating fraud. There should be serious consequences for anyone found to have lodged a fraudulent asylum claim.
