[@pangorban1]

The Irish Times did a poll about 6 months ago, which showed a majority (62%) want tighter restrictions on immigration. A Red C poll in May showed a majority (75%) felt Ireland had taken in too many refugees from Ukraine and other countries. Regular Ipsos polling continues to show that immigration tops the list of concerns among Irish voters. Anecdotally, everyone I speak to believes immigration and refugee intakes are getting way out of control So how this particular poll arrived at such a figure is anyone's guess.

[@josephmurphy1509]

Them pole results you quoted are closer to the Truth. But we are not after the Truth. Its the Gov. Narrative what matters.

[@noelfleming3567]

Dirty tricks brigade

[@iorarua3525]

It was a loaded question. 'Should Irish people welcome families who move here to make a better life for themselves?' It's a question that demands a 'socially desirable' response. It's like 'Should kids with cancer get decent medical treatment?' or 'Should we treat elderly people with respect?' How many people are going to say No?

There are skill shortages in Ireland because working Irish are leaving - they are leaving because they are working simply to pay rent and see no hope of ever getting on the housing ladder - the HSE had a recruitment freeze here yet still brought in workers from overseas...! Earlier this year the ESRI reported that a couple with a combined income of €94,000 couldn't afford to buy a 3 bed anywhere in the greater Dublin area - and yes there is a direct link between mass immigration and the cost of housing...!

I'm a mid-left leaning citizen, but unfortunately imo it highly depends on where these migrants are coming from. Poland? Ukraine? UK? No problem, no significant cultural differences so i'm sure they will all integrate just fine to Ireland. However muslim migrants? They're simply not going to integrate because it goes against their religion to adopt many of our customs (female rights etc). I've asked my Swedish and Norwegian friends from college how it is back home, and the swedes especially said they let in WAYYY too many migrants, and once you leave them in and they have children on your soil, getting them out is impossible. All of my friends are politically left leaning, however we must strongly reconsider how many of these muslim refugees we let in. I don't want to see such an oppressing culture towards women grow in Ireland
