Exclusive: Tiny Irish Town Taking Hundreds of Migrants Had No Say, Locals Fear Being Called Racist
Breitbart ^ | 3/6/2018

Posted on 03/07/2018 6:57:44 AM PST by Altura Ct.

A resident of a tiny Irish town having its population increased by a third by a new migrant centre has said Ireland has become a “slave state” of the European Union (EU) and its immigration policies, leaving locals helpless. “We don’t know where these people are going to be from. They won’t tell us what countries they’re from. What religion they’re from,” said Michael Walsh.

He said the 300-strong rural community of Lisdoonvarna could be radically changed by such a large and sudden influx, and that many concerned locals were fearful of accusations of racism if they questioned it.

“They just proposed to expand the population of this little village by what? Twenty-five per cent? Thirty-three per cent actually!” he exclaimed in an interview with Breitbart News Editor in Chief Alex Marlow on Breitbart News Daily on Sirius XM.

“And [the asylum seekers] are starting to come in this week,” he said, explaining how the contracts for the deal have now been signed this Wednesday, making it a “done deal”, despite 93 per cent of Lisdoonvarna residents last week voting against turning a local hotel into asylum seeker accommodation.

“The hotelier who had publically said ‘if the people of Lisdoonvarna don’t want this I won’t sign the contract’ has signed the contract. He’s now weaselled back on it,” Mr. Walsh added, speculating that the owner stands to make between one and two million euros from the government in a year.

Mr. Walsh – a screenwriter, author, filmmaker, and former Breitbart News editor – grew up in the U.S. but has roots in the isolated town of Lisdoonvarna in County Clare, which hosts a popular matchmaking festival in the summer, attracting many tourists.

You are what we would call a “fecking Eejit!”

BTW Lisdoonvarna is a major tourist destination in County Clare (my home county) and this wave of people is not good for the area.

Slan!

Somehow it seems the worst thing in the world now is to be called a racist. People will allow, even invite the destruction of their very culture to avoid being called racist. I say so what? Everybody knows blacks and browns are the most racist. Look how everything is about skin color. Hell, the light browns can’t even abide the dark browns. Its almost funny. OTOH, whites are supposed to be ashamed of their skin color. Who made these rules? They can forget it. I’m not playing.

I will never understand why globalists want to destroy everything and their belief that somehow this could turn out well for the world.

It is always about POWER and nothing else. Get, gain, keep and exercise POWER over people. It is in all of their propaganda and playbooks.

The article says “new migrant center”. Sounds like they’re going to build a new center.

Islam cannot coexist with individual liberty. Islam thrives in a feudal warlord governing structure, culling the herd of dissent. The standard of living is at too high a premium now.

Weve been binging on NETFLIX, Father Brown ... a Catholic priest sleuth and I am SO impressed with the sets (filming).

I haven't quite decided if they are sets or actual English countryside locales.

Whatever .... they are the epitome of peaceful tranquility (that gets upset every episode with a murder Father Brown helps or DOES, solve.)


Found this;

Filming takes place in the Gloucestershire village of Blockley using the church of Saints Peter and Paul (Church of England) as the St Mary Roman Catholic church of the series and the vicarage transformed into presbytery for Father Brown's residence.

and this

There's the root of the problem right there!

It took nearly 700 years to push the Brits out of 26 counties in Ireland. Once muslims take control, they’re of the belief that control is forevermore. Ireland, which had been largely avoided an infestation of muslims up until the early 2000s, will feel the ongoing influx far more painfully, as its population is significantly smaller than most EU countries.

Maybe the govt. is "re-purposing" the local parish church to accommodate the droves of "New-Irish" seeking Lebensraum.

They won’t tell us .... What religion they’re from,” said Michael Walsh.

Oh, you'll know that soon enough. When your children and women are raped and your pubs and churches are blown to dust... you'll most assuredly know.

So what if one is called racist? This term is applied to almost white person and even objects such as bananas, gorillas, fried chicken, watermelon, shoelaces, etc.

I don’t want any Irish immigrants showing up in droves. They are left-wing nutcases, most of them.

Don't worry; you won't. What you'll have are mexicans and muslims.

“All the pieces are in place just waiting for the people’s arms to be removed.”

Oh, really? What pieces? Not being snarky, just asking how confiscation of citizens’guns will take place on a national scale in America. Logistics, personnel, operational plans, & legal basis plus overriding of the Constitution; what Federal level forces have the means to accomplish this?

Now...confiscating guns from individuals denounced as mentally ill, that’s a threat but only in California as law; moreover, disgruntled spouses & neighbors with grudges will abuse GVROs so badly that the system will become unworkable.

States that imposed registration of guns not previously affected are experiencing 85 to 90 percent noncompliance, and yet to announce that mass arrests are soon to follow.

New gun ban bills in Congress are only making fools of their sponsors.

If gun control proponents are organized, then they’re the Keystone Kops.
