Locals should not be entitled to consultation over asylum seekers being moved into their communities, hotelier Adrian Shannagher has said.

People in Wicklow have expressed outrage that nobody was consulted when asylum seeker families who had been staying at Shannaghan's Grand Hotel in Wicklow were moved out and replaced with single young men.

300 asylum seekers are now being accommodated at the hotel – up from just over 100 six months ago.

But Shannahan told Newstalk today that when locals are consulted about direct provision centres, the result is that those centres don't get opened:

"I often found that word consultation historically is designed to mean veto. People wanted to know so they could do something about it. People often say they want to be consulted but what they really want is a whole load of concerns addressed which may or may have any basis in foundation. With centres where pre-advance notice has been given to people, those centres haven't gone ahead."

RT @Mullins77David: Nick Henderson, Chief Executive Officer of the Irish Refugee Council just told Brian Dobson on RTE that communities such as those in East Wall have "no right" to determine who is accommodated in their area. @IrishInquiry @IrexitFreedom @griptmedia https://twitter.com/Mullins77David/status/1594686595784998916/photo/1

There is no planning permission exemption allowing the authorities to house International Protection applicants in a commercial building. The exemption only applies to refugees accepted under the Temporary Protection directive.

Solicitor Malachy Steenson has now confirmed this with the authorities.

The contract that the Dept of Equality signed with Gateway Integration LTD is in breach of the Planning Act.

Asylum seekers cannot legally be accommodated at the former ESB office in East Wall. It needs to be shut down immediately.

The speaker Philip is talking about in the video below is an IRSP member called Nigel Murphy. The IRSP has never opposed asylum swindlers seeking to abuse our asylum system and who have been facilitated to do so for the past 25 years. But their members have attacked people who do oppose the racket.

This is Kellie-Jay Keen AKA Posie Parker who's a charismatic English campaigner for women's rights.

Keen doesn't believe men who think they are women should be allowed in female spaces, nor does she believe children should be encouraged to take puberty blockers or remove their genitalia.

Keen holds rallies and gives talks all over the world. This is probably her best presentation.

The British police have just phoned Keen and asker her to come to Brighton for an interview because she's been accused of committing a hate crime while holding a rally there earlier in September. She didn't assault anybody in Brighton. All she did was speak to a group of like-minded people and expressed her views on the transgender ideology. The interview will be used to to try to incriminate her.

This is the power gardaí will have under the new hate speech legislation in Ireland.

Anger was specifically directed at mention of Sinn Féin, with chants of ‘traitors’ being heard when a defaced party political banner of Mary Lou MacDonald, whose constituency the site is located in, was brandished near the front of the crowd.

Smart ad placement spotted outside the Grand Hotel in Wicklow.

Under the UDHR, the Irish government is not even allowed to ask a foreign government for any information they have on an asylum seeker who claims to have fled from them.

This is what Sinn Fein councillor for kerry cathal Foley thinks of the decent people of east wall and the people of inner city Dublin in general. A despicable and degrading comment from someone who represents a party who claim to be a party ofntge working class! He appears to mock the genuine fears that the locals have with a massive influx of unvetted single men in to their community. Oh and by the way, he's mocking the very constituents his party leader represents! Is this how your party veiw the people of inner city Dublin Mary Lou?

EastWall needs to go harder now....

Malachy Steenson speaking at the protest in East Wall last night:

"When a similar issue arose in Ballsbridge in Dublin 4 two years ago, the residents issued court proceedings and threatened to injunct the Department [of Justice]. They closed that facility down and moved on. So if it's not good enough for the likes of Ballsbridge where the upper professional classes live, then it's not good enough for East Wall."

"All of these NGOs who are making a good living out of this issue off the backs of ordinary working class people, and there's something fundamentally wrong with a society which pays I think close to €7 Billion to NGOs and associated groups in order to articulate government policy effectively....to say that these people in this constituency, in this community should not be consulted about a fundamental change in this area, never mind the flouting of planning laws or fire safety regulations in turning a commercial office building into accommodation."

"Sinn Féin particularly agrees with an open-door immigration policy, and we invited all the councillors in this constituency to a meeting today. Sinn Féin would not turn up. That speaks for itself."

There has been no consultation with local schools over a new Direct Provision centre at the 300 acre Kippure Lodge estate in Wicklow which is situated 5 miles from Kilbride village, and 9 miles from Blessington.

20 spacious, bright cottages on the estate each having a wood-burning stove are expected to accommodate up to 50 asylum seeker families.

But it is understood that there has been no contact with the primary schools in Kilbride or Blessington, nor the post primary in Blessington.

The 300 acre estate at Kippure was bought in 2019 by the investment fund Quanta Capital.

Strictly no Irish homeless families will be accommodated at the cottages.

Social Democrats TD Gary Gannon says every county in Ireland is going to be enhanced by asylum seekers which he admitted are impossible to vet as he condemned the protests in East Wall on the Claire Byrne show today.

Gannon says Ireland has an obligation to accommodate unlimited numbers of asylum seekers, the majority of whom fail their asylum applications but are granted Leave To Remain regardless.

In 2018, for example, 99.7% of Albanian asylum seekers were rejected as were 97% of Georgians, 95% of Nigerians and 86% of Zimbabweans. All Pakistani asylum seekers were rejected in 2017.

Asylum applications have quadrupled this year after Government committed to providing all asylum seekers their own homes within four months of arrival.

But there is a long queue of asylum seekers in Direct Provision awaiting their permanent homes as Minister for Justice Helen McEntee issued a blanket amnesty to all asylum seekers in the system over two years as part of her blanket amnesty for illegals earlier in the year.
