  1. Government funded NGO that gets taxpayer cash releases poll that supports activities that will lead them to getting more cash

    Absolute load of horse shit. Migrant NGO advocating for more migrants to come here. Of course a majority of people would agree with the statement below.

    “welcome people who move here to make a better life for themselves or their families

    Now ask the question do people agree we should welcome in 1k’s of migrants claiming asylum from safe countries, who unfortunately lose their passports on arrival and then cost us billions in accommodating/dealing with them and see what %
    is then.

    Goes to show that just because r/Ireland has turned into a racist cesspit, the rest of Ireland hasn’t

    Absolutely. All the best to them. Contributing to society, they are more than welcome here.

  5. “if you disagree with government, you’re in the minority and won’t be super cool!!”

  6. Correction – Majority of Irish people welcome migrants who move here LEGALLY to fill jobs with a massive shortage, WITHOUT depending on welfare.

    Also, GENUINE asylum seekers.

    > Participants were informed that the “vast majority of undocumented people in Ireland have been living and working here for a long time supporting themselves” and that they “do not receive any state welfare supports or accommodation”.

    Lol

  8. It’s amazing how the NGO/RTE relationship works. Basically migrant rights Ireland formulated a poll then leaked it to RTE. RTE news editor (being biased towards government policy) then prints it as news to enforce a narrative. Joseph Goebbels would be proud.
