For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Footage from Saturday's demo.

Around 300 people gathered in O'Connell Street on Saturday to welcome home Olunkunle Eluhanle, the Nigerian student whose deportation order had been reversed by the Minister for Justice, Michael McDowell. The crowd listened to Kunle speak briefly, along with his friend Neil Burke from Palmerston College who had been heavily involved in the campaign to have his friend returned. After listening to speeches from other union, political, and refugee support groups, the crowd made its way down to the National Immigration Bureau on Burgh Quay.

Kunle was asked how he felt about being back. "I'm really happy. I was really shocked by the whole thing. Thanks to all my mates for protesting to bring me back. I guess the only thing I can say is that we should stand for each other. We should be there for each other, supporting each other, so that we can all come home. Thanks to everyone who protested to get me home; journalists, priests, and all my friends too. And Mr. McDowell who brought me home as well."

Groups were represented from around the country, including Athlone and Castleblaney, where local residents have begun campaigns to have similar deportation orders to Kunle's reversed. Neil Burke addressed the crowd: "I think Kunle's case has shown that it can be done and it gives everyone heart to keep going and keep trying. Its not a fight in vain. You can do it, and we've shown that you can do it. Everyone from Palmerston is pointing out all the other cases and we'll give any support or help that we can, and give anything we've learned along the way to help your case. I just want to say: keep going, you will get there in the end. He [Michael McDowell] isnt a hard man, he will listen to you eventually."
