This competition was old-fashioned in the 80's ..can't believe people still watch it in 2022.

And of course nobody noticed how RTE didn't ask the white irish parents up onstage like last year's black winner when her black father and white mother were invited up on stage, front and center for the whole world to see the new multicultural Ireland.

I went to Rose Escort interviews this year for the 2019 festival, I didn't make the official escorts but when I was there I met some Irish lads of different ehtnicies applying to be escorts too. That a brand new diversity in this country and I want Ireland to embrace it's diversity.

[@decaunteton9658]

@@liamholton8937 This isn't diversity, it's an invasion, and by the time Irish people wake up and realise what's happening, it'll be to late.

[@liamholton8937]

I treat it as diversity anyway. Kinda helps that I'm a friend of Kirsten! :D

[@liamholton8937]

@Mad Man 1 If it means we embrace our diversity in this country then that's fine with me.

How come no men contesting? I thought the me2 poison disapproved of this type of thing . The men would be as good looking as the women on display here. It’s so hypocritical of the way Ireland is today.

[@danhlambkin7808]

It’s a women’s pageant lol

Look at Sinéad there, hasn't she got a lovely bottom?
