Riots in Ireland
Discussion
I’m confused about the riots in Ballymena.
Two Romanian speaking boys are accused of a sexual assault on a local Irish girl.
The rioters are attacking the Police and apparently setting fire to vehicles and houses.
The newspaper report (Telegraph) merely says the rioting followed a peaceful vigil against immigration into Ireland.
So who is rioting? Immigrants against the arrest of the two accused, or locals smashing up their own area?

My guess is that it's those with a similar mentality and logic to the Southport rioters.Two Romanian speaking boys are accused of a sexual assault on a local Irish girl.

If they are being nice, then they can be Irish

A local Irish girl 13 was dragged out of her house and raped by 3 immigrants on saturday night as well as the case against the 2, 14 year old boys many can imagine all hell broke loose night night as residents are pointing the finger at government for allowing HMO's to spring up everywhere, there was about 3000 people out in support of the family affected including both Republican and Protestant clans unity is being mentioned more between the 2 sides now as they rally against a bigger threat , if the police can't police the streets we will go back to doing it ourselves again was heard in chants, the properties affected where being used to house migrants, Ballymena is a tight nit community that stick together. There are weekly protests going on all over Ireland now as people have had enough Cork last weekend and another planned for Dublin this week with protesters gathering support with each event which will not stop until the plantation ends was the message from Cork. Warning signs on lamposts have been spotted in Belfast saying Landlords we are watching you! You'd think the government would have to accept blame admit failure and stop this now before things get worse the police were totally out numbered and just watched what happened. It feels like the start of something that needs to end before it gets really bad.

The fact they were immigrants is completely irrelevant. It's got nothing to do with immigration, ethnicity or culture. Pure coincidence. To suggest otherwise is racist. [INSERT WHATABOUTERY LIST OF CRIMES COMMITTED BY NATIVES HERE]

More seriously - I applaud those protesting. I despise those rioting.

My wife is from a small village in the west of Ireland and we have a place there It's incredible how quickly things have changed and how many "newcomers" have arrived in the area
First it was the hotels/hostels full of Ukrainians and now it's Africans, Indians and those from the Middle East
Mostly they just hang around in groups .. there is absolutely nothing for them to do, there's no public amenities apart from the GAA pitch, Catholic Church and a few pubs
There were some Iraqi looking guys outside the secondary school a few weeks ago leering at the fine young ones .. how they didn't get lynched, but it was close
There are places near here where the local population is outnumbered by the migrants by significant numbers
It's astonishing how quickly it's happened and the locals are furious, there is real anger. It's put huge pressure on housing and particularly rents where even in the middle of nowhere locals can't afford anywhere
It won't take much of a spark to light it all up it seems

The recent changes across Eire would probably surprise many from the UK who either have a rather outdated, perhaps quaint impression of Ireland or haven t visited for a while. Obviously the situation isn t universally awful and nor is it all go on go on , Leprechauns and Guinness.It's incredible how quickly things have changed and how many "newcomers" have arrived in the area

In fact Guinness consumption in my family has fallen through the floor. Crazy times.
Edited to add I’ve never personally visited the North.

House of multiple occupancy. 2 bed knocked into a 5 bed which the government then pays ~£1k per week per immigrant to serco to house, clothe and feed.
If one sprung up next door, well I don t think you d be over the moon
Yes. Because EVERY HMO is like that If one sprung up next door, well I don t think you d be over the moon
The HMO's around my local area are not all migrants, some are the absolute degenerate scum native to this country. One thing I can attest to, where multiple HMO's prop up (in my location), the area becomes significantly less desirable, more intimidating to locals and unfortunately, absolutely filthy. Litter, bottles, bin bags at the very least. Disgusting unkept gardens to boot.
