For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it.

However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Coalition oppose proposed new Immigration Bill at Dáil Eireann 6th October 2010

category national | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Friday October 08, 2010 12:36author by Human Rights Report this post to the editors

A coalition of seven national and regional organisations delivered a joint statement outside the Dáil on Wednesday morning to demand changes to the current Immigration Bill being introduced by Minister for Justice, and Law Reform, Dermot Ahern, T.D.

The main objection to the new Immigration, Residence and Protection Bill 2010, scheduled for Dáil debate tomorrow (Wed 6 Oct), is a provision which allows for summary deportation of migrants and those in need of protection, without access to a fair hearing. Current procedures regarding deportation provide an individual fifteen days to make representations to the Minister as to why s/he should be allowed to remain in the State. The new Bill would take away this basic provision.

At the event, the Directors/CEOs of each organisation will jointly present a letter to Minister Ahern and to each party's spokesperson on immigration, calling on them to eliminate the provision of summary deportation. The coalition is also seeking the establishment of an independent appeals body which would ensure that immigration procedures are carried out in a fair, transparent and efficient manner.

The following is a Joint Statement from the Directors/CEOs of each organisation:

Conor Hickey, Crosscare Migrant Project
Karen McHugh, Doras Luimní
Denise Charlton, Immigrant Council of Ireland
Sue Conlan, Irish Refugee Council
Siobhan O'Donoghue, Migrant Rights Centre Ireland
Josephine Ahern, The Integration Centre
Fiona Finn, NASC: The Irish Immigrant Support Centre

"Costly court challenges will inevitably follow Government moves to allow for summary deportation of migrants and those in need of protection in the proposed new immigration legislation. Allowing for summary deportations is also contrary to 2008 Supreme Court Rulings and ignores a recommendation from the UN Human Rights Committee which urged Ireland to outlaw summary deportations, as they are contrary to international law."

"In Ireland we value fairness, transparency and due process. The Immigration Bill in its current form goes against these basic principles. By allowing summary deportation, the Bill denies minimum safeguards and tramples on an individual's civil and fundamental rights."

"We think the Irish public would be shocked to learn the unchecked powers that the Bill gives the Minister and the Gardaí. We know from our past the danger of giving too much power to any one group or person. Ireland's historic practice of deporting people from this country in times of crisis cannot be allowed to happen again. We will not stand idly by and watch this draconian measure become law."

"The introduction of summary deportation without access to a fair hearing is a draconian measure which undermines the fundamental principles of constitutional justice. It belies the principles of justice and equality which are inherent in a democratic society".

Planetary apartheid. Welcome to the Gaza chamber.

I presume the Minister for Blasphemy will be demanding that all Irish-born citizens be repatriated immediately.
