The opposition don’t seem to understand this will act as a deterrent for those who plan on bringing over the whole clan, not sure why Martin is having to defend it tbh.

>The move was met with criticism from some quarters, with the Social Democrats’ Gary Gannon calling the changes “performative toughness”.

The function of opposition in Ireland is seemingly just to oppose. Doesn’t matter if the idea is good or not.
The mad thing is that it goes to show how much of our problems are domestic policy driven. Measures like these would have been deemed impossible as little as two years ago. Not in keeping with our “international obligations” they’d say.
Turns out that nothing is actually impossible when the will is there.
