Irish Current Affairs

Maybe I’m reading it wrong but that suggests he might be an immigrant too. If he is, that’s going to be a difficult one for the swivel-eyed loons to square off in their heads
There was a lot of talk last night that it was someone he lived with…and also that it may have been the outcome of a drug fuelled argument.
It doesn’t seem to be another foreign national, but it shows how quickly info/facts/lies can spread
 
Yeah but people say this after every one that happens, thats pretty hopeful mate.
You know i didnt know about 30 women being killed and I do watch the news, why hasnt more been made of it?
The irony is if people had got off their arses and caused some bother i might have. And more could have been done. Are you seriously suggesting people don't care about innocent murdered women?
I’m suggesting the hypocrisy (?) of the fact that they aren’t bothered to kick up a fuss about multiple, preventable murders.

I’m off to attempt to get to work, wondering if it’ll be a pretty journey

"The man who was left seriously injured following Monday night's knife attack on the streets of Belfast has been named by residents as Stephen Ogilvie.

Mr Ogilvie, in his 40s, suffered "significant injuries" to his face, neck and back during the stabbing.

Mr Ogilvie is understood to be originally from Scotland and had been living in the same block of flats as his Sudanese alleged attacker.

One woman told the Mail he was a "vulnerable person".

A man who lives close to the block of flats told the newspaper: "I saw all the police and the ambulance outside the flats.

"The paramedics were talking to Stephen as they were treating him.

"I heard them call him by his name as he was helped into the ambulance."

'I've seen him around. He's originally from Scotland and has been living in the flats for a few years. He's a vulnerable person, and some of his neighbours look out for him."

Not that it excuses the savagery of the attack, I had wondered if it was some kind of "domestic".
 
You don't mind him using the word barbaric but...? Of course it's a deliberately chosen word there really isn't a word other than that to describe it because words like "Unfortunate" don't convey the madness of it all.

FWIW he probably shouldn't have been in the country and should have been vetted better.

He shouldn’t have Been WHERE?

In Belfast/The UK? Common Travel Area. Are you advocating ripping that up?

In Ireland? What do you want our government to do about who another country lets in their borders?
He flew from Paris to Dublin, got the bus to Belfast, applied for and got asylum by department's governed by Jenrick and braverman.
He was given asylum by the Northern Irish government not by the EU or the ROI.
The devolved administration in Stormont have zero say in immigration and asylum
He was granted asylum by ROI. He travelled to the uk via the common area.



“Sudanese man charged with attempted murder over knife attack was granted leave to remain after entering via ‘Irish route’

The so-called “Irish route” involves migrants flying to Dublin from Europe, sometimes on false papers, before travelling unchecked to Northern Ireland”
He wasn't granted anything by Dublin, it was the Home Office that granted his asylum.
 
Where do you get a glass milk bottle from these days ?? I haven't seen one for years.
And that coming from someone who did a milk round with my Dad from 1966-1972, so I was used to handling hundreds of milk bottles every weekend
Plenty of glass bottles still around.
Go to the bottle bank at any recycling centre and the bins are filled with them.
 
Sure if you think the Tory party is serious…

Immigration 40% down year on year, smuggling gang arrest up 4x, regularly getting weeks with 0 boats crossing (including last week!).

Knife homicides at their lowest in 10 years, homicides down 40% and all knife crime 8% since Labour came in.

Asylum backlog clearing, number of unauthorised migrants returned up to its highest level since 2016.

But yeah sure, the answer is Farage.
And yet here we are.

Farage doesn't have the answer, he doesn't have any answers, he never does, the only politician with an answer is Lowe and it's both unacceptable and unworkable not least because it's fascism. The only thing these two shithouses have going for them is they know what the question is, as do you behind your wall of deliberate stupidity.

Your "serious" politicians know it too, but they cannot address it, they keep shifting ground to try to contain it but the ethno nationalist genie is out of the bottle now and there's no putting it back. We used to be the envy of Europe and the USA, for decades we seemed, for the most part, to have swerved nationalist angst amongst the majority population, well we've fucked it up now, the natives have had their fill of multicultural slop and rolling out stats won't cut it coz the great unwashed are not listening.

And why?

Coz they've not been listened to for decades so they're not listening to your serious politicians now, and they're certainly not listening to the likes of you. Surely you must have something in that man bag of yours? Why don't you hit them with a dose of critical race theory? Intersectionality? White privilege? That'll work on the street of Belfast for sure.

You really are a hopeless case, to constantly spout all your nonsense means you have to avoid 24/7 what my dad used to call the bleeding obvious, it's exhausting, I know, it was my lived experience, another favourite of yours no doubt.

Victim is in his 40s ,mental age of about 12. He's in RVH ICU in an induced coma, he's lost one eye and blind in the other plus multiple other injuries, known by the local police but totally harmless.

Sad to hear, hopefully he can recover. After last night, there are now so many other victims of these mindless scumbags, and I find it interesting that some on thread don't/won't condemn the actions of burning out of their houses, Irish, African, Ukrainian families, who are now homeless.

Not having a pop mate but I'm not sure how you can say that Lowe has the answer but in the same sentence say "his answer is both unacceptable and unworkable and not least because it's fascism". That tells me that you don't think he has the answer, just that he has an answer but it isn't the correct answer.

Spot on, he has an answer.

He has the answer only in the sense that it serves his political purpose, rather than addressing a specific problem.

A large chunk of the population are willing to throw their lot in with Farage and Lowe not because either of them have the answer, or even that they have an answer, they throw their lot in because Farage and Lowe recognise the question and in so doing they recognise them.
 
We've got this now.....on one hand it just takes some wee dick to use ChatGPT to create a poster and on the other hand, i am again trying to deal with health and social care workers unable to get to work, or too scared to try and travel......have had 2 calls already from clients closing their service for the day
