That term is ridiculous like. Extra-national maybe?

Didn't you hear? Foreigners not only get free cars and fancy mansions, they also get record contracts.
If you were born on a ship in interntional waters then you could be described as a non-national.
Nothing wrong with non national except for the fact it is gibberish. But "international newcomer" is just as meaningless.
Totally...who are they?
When do they stop being newcomers?
Heard an oul wan ask another oul wan on the bus this morning whether it was an 'irish person or another wan of dem foreign nationals that was got for the thing in galway' I'm assuming she meant the manuel riedo murder..but 'another one of them foreign nationals' what's that suppose to mean? I know I was only ear-wigging, but it seems that this oul one has built up an imaginary reality in her mind where 'foreign nationals' are killing Irish people??
I though migrant would have a connotation of impermanence. Like going abroad for seasonal work.
The victim was a foreign national. So the crime was to do with all dem foreigners rather than the rest of us, so we shouldn't really care about it.
I'm guessing that's what they meant.
How about ex-pat? That seems to be the word white people use when they turn up on fahrdin shores to live permanently.
