Irish mayor quits over refusal to represent African residents - AUDIO

Let's not forget that, in addition to decent Africans who live and work in Ireland, there are many Irish who live and work in Africa too, probably earning significantly more there than Africans are earning in Ireland. Sometimes it is better to use a surgeon's scalpel than a meat cleaver or shotgun approach to solving problems.

It seems he got his marching orders pretty quickly, and that the people behind that were obviously white Irish people who were appalled, which speaks well of them. You can't ignore everyone from Africa just based on the bad behaviour of a few. They aren't all like that.

In my opinion, Ireland is too small to be multi-cultural and risks ethnic and cultural suicide as the native population is replaced by immigrants of whatever race. The focus should be on limiting immigration doing everything possible to stem emigration.

This is all about behaviour and not about race or colour. White persons can be just as harassing and intimidating. Such behaviour should not be tolerated from any person- race or colour has nothing to do with not having manners. Though, I do not recall anyone alleging that a white person uses alleged discrimination on the grounds of colour or race as a bargaining tool for preferential treatment; correct me if I am wrong. I could not give a s**t whether one is black or white or whatever! And that includes no negative discrimination AND no positive discrimination just because one is black, or white, or because of historical abuses perpetrated against them! Time to grow up.

Thank yer man Bono for all his activism in the 80's..Reap what ya sow...At least it seems Bob Geldof acknowledged the rude awakening he had to the corruption in the African comunities after his "We Are the World" efforts fell into nothing more then thuggery...so he quit it....Then consider the line from the movie, "The Commitments"...where an Irish band manager says, "Say it once, say it loud, "I'm black and I'm proud"....But he's not..he just got played....Ahh, the GLORY of bein' rock stars an unlearned!...Trade a few minutes of pleasure for a people's and a nations hertiage and history.Played. Didn't King Solomon say study the ants...if you want to know how invasive the human nature can be.

Maryanna on her sick bigotted rants again.awoken32, "they'll not pull the wool over your bigotted eyes" How about lifting the veil of hate from your heart.The word "black" sure drags out the hate mongers.

UNITED NATIONALISTS THROUGHOUT EUROPE IS THE KEY TO THE SURVIVAL OF OUR BEAUTIFUL RACE AN CULTURES,WE LIVE IN THE REAL WORLD NOT THE INDOCTURNATED ONE,IM NO SHEEPLE AS THE WOOL WILL BE NEVER PULLED OVER MY EYES,KEEP IRELAND IRISH IT BELONGS TO THE INDUGINUS PEOPLE OF IRELAND AN NOT THE CORRUPTED ELITE

This report from The Irish Examiner indicates that Nigerians continue to contribute to Ireland:------" Woman fined €500 for keeping brothel By Georgina O’Halloran A WOMAN who pleaded guilty to keeping a brothel has received a €500 fine at a district court. Clementina Omalade Festus, aged 28, was arrested at 21 Ard na Corann, Broomfield, Midleton, Co Cork, on July 5 last and taken to Mallow Garda Station, where she admitted the offence of brothel keeping. The Nigerian woman’s "whereabouts" was being advertised on a commercial website locally, Midleton District Court heard yesterday. The arrest followed a surveillance operation after gardaí received information in relation to suspicious activity at the house." Ms. Festus didn't possess a passport or any papers so that the Gardai couldn't be sure of her real name. She evidently believes in A World Without Borders, just like some of the dopes (kinvara, barebackgirl etc.) who post here believe.

He got sacked for speaking the truth,africans are arrogent invaders,the fact is the majority of irish do not want africans all over OUR COUNTRY,they all are thought that the whites are to blame for everything wrong with their society,play the race card at every oppurtunity,africans will never be irish,they can be born in ireland but still will be african,just in the same way that an irish man cannot be a chinese man or an asian,deport the majority of them from our country so as to leave an un threatning number,that satisfies the indiginus people of ireland,NO MORE IMMIGRATION MASS MASS DEPORTATIONS

adrienrain: You're a hypocrite wind-bag. Before you go preening yourself on your "multicultural LA" (ever heard of Rodney King?) how about explaining to us the disappearance of ALL the Native American peoples who inhabited Southern California before the white man arrived. Temecula, Cupeño, Cahuillas--where are they now in your "multicultural paradise"? You're a fool.

There are murders running NI and not a word about that -blood flows through our rivers NI. And not a word about that. NI Stormont is dysfunctional - corrupted.

Good for him. The Irish are well meaning but it just doesn't work. With all the forced busing to integrate here in the U.S. Blacks still have a chip on there shoulder and some really hate white's. Funny, they yell discrimination yet when someone I know went to John Jay College in New York, the majority of Spanish and Blacks never spoke to this white girl in the 4 yrs. she was there. When Ireland opened it's doors to all these countries, they should have made sure there allegiance was to there adopted country and not there race.

If Finn Gael would try to build a country for the IRISH, instead of for all - their might be evidence they had a brain. Every EU country that has developed significant African populations has also developed significant social problems for that group. Chew on that.

@patrickdowney, my post wasn't meant to be against your post. I understand that people shouldn't be given favored status whatever their race or heritage. I do think it's wrong that the people of Ireland weren't given a choice to vote on the EU 'commandments' about this, per say. Don't even go there, as far as, what I know about tough times. I'm not writing my biograghy here, buddy.

Reading the comments here makes me rather glad my ancestors made their way to a land of diverse people. Enough of our forebears did so that, here in multicultural LA, I can attend the longest-running traditional session in S California, and watch Celtic musicians (with ancestral roots on every continent on earth) carrying on the best of Welsh, Irish & Scottish tradition - the music and arts. Sadly, I've met enough people from Ireland (by no means a majority here) who were absolutely so snobbish about who was REALLY Irish (I, for instance am only about 1/2 Irish, my famine-era ancestors having recklessly married Scots, Welsh, and Germans - oh NO!) as to be unpleasant and offensive. As I said, most immigrants from Ireland are NOT like that, but enough are to reveal an embarrassing streak of bigotry.
