"Facts" about asylum seekers! (1 Viewer)

[cephalopod]

At least none of them are eating our precious spuds.

This is actually true though, there were Polish people living on my road, and we saw them several times robbing spuds from a field over the way very early in the morning!!

Also i hear the lads working in the jacks make crazy money, the brother said the guy that works the jacks in the nightclub where he works drives a Lexus.

Somedays I want to throw petrol over the piles of 'em at my local newsagents and light a match.

And what are they all up to hanging around at the newsagents?
Stroking stuff probably.

I've been in two taxis today and managed to avoid hearing any interesting "facts" of this kind. However, as the second one was passing through Dolphins Barn the driver remarked that the bookies seems to be the only shop along that stretch not run by immigrants. I managed to distract him away from this line of conversation by talking about football instead. Phew!

You should have told him Paddy Power has been taken over by a syndicate of asylum seekers who all pooled their €19.10 to buy it. It wouldn't have made the conversation any less racist, but you could have recorded it and mixed it with Twink's 'Zip up your Mickey' voicemail, and then released it for Christmas.

actually, to embellish, they asked for odds from paddy power on the chance of their bid to buy paddy power with €19.10 being successful. after having been quoted odds of ten million to one, they convinced paddy power to agree to the buyout, as paddy power is estimated to be worth €150m, and their win would grant them €191m, thus allowing them to buy paddy power out for more than it was worth.

Oh yeah, and I forgot about the bit where they all have x-ray vision and they're not smiling at pulling one over on the taxpayer, they're laughing at our silly boobs and your stupid mickeys.

a taxi driver in drogheda once thought i was a foreign national. I was in a taxi from a friends house to the bus depot with another friend. The friend got off earlier

and then the taxi driver started talking

Taxi driver: going back to dublin on the bus?
iff: no, no ardee
taxi driver: i didn't think there was non-national in ardee
iff: i'm irish

The asylum seekers are clogging up the medical system. That's why all the irish people have to wait so long to see specialists...! They come into this country with all sorts of tropical diseases!

 

[Diddles]

And you can't bring anything in with you to a maternity hospital or the blacks will rob it off you.

All the polish lads were trained in the special forces and will kill ye as quick as look at ye..

Also in Lithuania, people think Rob Shneider is funny

That term "non-national" is weird. Is it meant to be an inoffensive way of saying immigrant? It seems more offensive really.

 

[cephalopod]

Native Irish is an even worse term, what do they think we are like the red indians or summat?

Totally. That's one of the reasons a lot of the media have -- thankfully -- stopped using it. They still use 'non-Irish national', which I still find a bit ick. It's like there are only two categories in Ireland, 'Irish' and 'Person from somewhere else that doesn't really matter because the fact he/she's not Irish tells us all we need to know.' I know, I know, that's not actually how most people think, but just what the term sort of implies. It's also wrong because there's no such thing as a 'non-national', or at least it's very rare, since it implies a stateless individual.

I also love 'Irish-born child'. Any child born in Ireland before two years ago is not an 'Irish-born child', he or she is an Irish citizen. But it's much easier to deport an 'Irish-born child' whose parents are 'non-nationals' than it is to explain to people why Irish citizens are being chucked out of the country because their parents are the wrong colour and don't work for Pfizer.

Mary Robinson rules, by the way. She gave a big lecture about what a poor decision the 2005 referendum was, the way people voted to change the nation's constitution and restrict the rights of countless people, on the basis of maybe a hundred people a year, for a couple of years prior to the vote. It really was very sad.
