Soul loss is the great calamity of our age. 🇮🇪
Words, visualised. You don’t need a PhD to see the mismatch: immigration is rising far faster than housing construction. Anyone discussing our great employment without factoring in housing capacity is missing the point.
Morning! Here's some clear numbers on housing, immigration and house prices. Put very simply, the rate of immigration will have to be halved at least for there to be any hope of stabilising house prices, given the amount of homes that are being built now. irishtimes.com/opinion/2025/0…
I remember learning about the Ulster Plantation in junior cert history class. Basically, Ulster was considered a bit too homogenous and Irish by an enemy. It was too hard to govern and subjugate. So the enemy planted thousands of foreigners who hated the Irish into rural…
The ongoing Globalist Plantation of Ireland is worse than the Ulster Plantation. And with people we have far less in common with.
One of the great sorrows of my life has been watching my beautiful home country of Ireland be destroyed by it's own unfettered immigration policy. As of the end of last year there were 1.2M immigrants out of a total population of 5.38M.
Hey @grok who was the most famous person to visit my profile? It doesn’t need to be a mutual, don’t tag them, just say who it was.
Women hold 86% of all part-time positions in Ireland’s Civil Service and around 63% of full-time roles. So why is the conversation still framed as inequality?
It is about time someone investigates how many of Paschald friends are becoming millionaires with illegal inmigration
"Hey Irish people. We'll make it slightly easier to own a shed in your parent's backyard while non-EU migrants working for US multinationals move into the houses you believed you would be able to afford growing up. You're welcome" - Fine Gael
Fine Gael is taking real action on housing. That’s why Minister John Cummins is introducing plans to allow for modular-style homes in back gardens to be exempt from planning permission. A public consultation will begin soon where you can have your say on exempted developments
Every day, more asylum seekers arrive in Ireland. Collectively, they are an enormous net drain on the country's economy. They are making the country poorer today. And their children will make your children poorer decades from now. Not one politician will ever say this out loud.
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…
€100 billion to “transform” Ireland? From the same people who turned a children’s hospital into a €2.2 billion money pit? You’ve been in power 15 years. You didn’t inherit this crisis. You engineered it. – Housing: disaster – Health: bottlenecked and privatised – Childcare:…
Fine Gael wants to build a better Ireland. Today, we have announced a once-in-a-generation plan to transform our country.
In Ireland, immigration has never been anything but a class war disguised as compassion.
Attitudes to immigration in Ireland are more negative in disadvantaged communities, particularly where the proportion of migrants has increased since 2011, according to the Economic and Social Research Institute rte.ie/news/2025/0722…
I really don't get Israeli supporters. They put up videos for instance of a scattered man using idiot words toward a Jew on a Dublin bus (horribly wrong, I can admit it). But then they've no issue with thousands of videos of butchering children and women and starving people.
I am the writer Omar Hamad, and I want to trade my library for a sack of flour.
Utter Hypocrisy. “We are against obviously turning it into some sort of overcrowded, slum conditions … I think everyone would be against that” But yet anyone who protested the same thing happening in their community, on a much larger scale, WITHOUT any planning gets labelled…
“I found I had less and less to say until finally, I became silent and began to listen. I discovered in the silence, the voice of God.”
Mass migration benefits landlords, developers and big corporations. It's a betrayal of the Irish working class. The left needs to wake up to this fact.
The problem with tech is that it’s still largely being built by men who’ve never felt truly connected to themselves, to others, or to the world. It’s revenge-of-the-nerd energy disguised as innovation, and it’s torpedoing culture, intimacy, and meaning in the process.
We must be entering Stage 3 of the Irish media cycle 🇮🇪 Stage 1: Mock Stage 2: Smear Stage 3: “Ah sure we were saying this all along”
Morning, podcast time. It is time to have a data-driven discussion on immigration/housing & why it is important for all of us, not some of us, to think about what the right level of immigration might be. In capacity terms, it will boil down to a numbers game.…
There is no political class in Europe as cut off from ordinary people as the Irish political class 🇮🇪
I am delighted to announce that @McGuinnessEU has been officially nominated by @FineGael to run for President of Ireland 🇮🇪   Mairead has all the attributes to bring our nation together at this important time.
