It is time to talk about the Out of Control Immigration. Mon Mar 31, 2025 22:12 | imc
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.

Just heard that a stay has been put on Olivia'a case.
There is a definite deportation today so people get down to the gnib on burgh quay at 2pm.
Temporary good news for Olivia, Great and Melissa.
But it's not over for many other people. Resdidents against Racism representative Mark Grehan has said that ordinarily about 35 asylum seekers are 'rounded up' in swoops like these. Mark also says that there has been an increase in women seeking asylum who are fleeing female genital mutilation among other things.
Residents Against Racism's press release about the deportation currently in progress. There are many women due for deportation who have fled here fleeing gender based persecution such as FGM

this case makes no sense, why did the woman come to ireland from italy rather than claim asylum there, especially if that is where her husband is? can someone who knows the case explain?
There is a blockade of sorts happening at the GNIB offices on Burgh Quay. More news to follow.
Olivia and her husband were living in Italy at the time that he wrote the article. It was there that the Nigerian drug barons came after them.
Congratulations to the Clonakilty group on their swift action against the deportation of the Agbonlahor Family. I fully support their response. There is absolutely no reason to resort to such an inhumane procedure against this family.

After going through the facts of the case of the Agbonlahors and the situation Mrs Agbolahor finds herself in, as the circumstances are. She did well to save her two kids after running away from italy to Ireland only for the irish government to want to send her to nigeria, basically sending her to death. yes it is true that her asylum case has failed, but i thought asylum cases are viewed on the merit of each case, considering the different circumstances of the case, irrespective of where the applicant is from. She ran to ireland for safety, why then does the irish government want to send her to death? is it that the irish government does not know the situation of things in nigeria today?. i just want to say that unbehalf of the many little boy s in the UK and Ireland of Greats age, that the family should please be reconsidered to continue their lives where they are, or would it be pleasing to find out or read in the news later after a few years of their deportation that Great is dead or that something has happened to him as a result of the environment in nigeria and no medical treatement for his ailment? It will be good for this family to be given a chance for the poor woman(Ms Agbonlahor) to live here in peace with her two kids and be happy that they are alive and with her. This is the joy of a mum. Please, Great should be given another chance and not be put to the degrading treatment and the embarrassment that he will be put to back in nigeria. I thought in most cases the law directs its laws to suit humanity and tries not to go against natural justice, equity and good conscience? The entire masses are pleading that the irish government tries to make the growth and development and the progress Great is making in his one to one observation to be successful and without much upheavals.
