Probably best if we lowered this until the housing disaster was at least partially mitigated. And no, I’m not trying to deflect blame from the governments disastrous handling of the housing disaster before anybody tries to imply such.

For Ireland, how many of those were migrating from UK? Are those even tracked, since there’s no visa required for relocation within the CTA?

Yes we have thriving employment in many sectors here, the vast majority of those who come here want to work, want to contribute and their taxes will contribute to getting houses built, getting healthcare sorted, getting more Gardai on the streets and paying the dole of the far right.
It makes no money for newspapers to run articles like ” Indian Doctor, saves neighbours life, while they waited on an ambulance”. ” A Syrian refugee has won the Cuman na Bunscoil handball title” or how our health care sector would collapse without migrants.
What sells in the media and generates clicks is the crimes of migrants which accounts for a very small % of migrants.

Was the housing crisis a result of immigration?

Did you ever notice some people will start a conversation with some random seemingly innocent fact or statement just to gauge your reaction then next thing you know they are going on about some mad conspiracy like the grand replacement theory.

Can’t overlook that loads of young people are not “ forced” out. They go to Australia etc for life experience which is a lovely thing to do. Also cannot afford a house there and will be home in a few years. It’s like an Irish rite of passage to go abroad in your 20’s.

Would be nice if the government stopped letting more people in until all of us have affordable places to live.
But I guess we will slowly become more and more racist and right wing because this is how that slippery slope happens. A government not listening to its people and sowing seeds of anger and mistrust always leads to a right wing nutter getting power since they are the only candidate that’s openly anti immigration.

The issue is housing. It’s always been housing.
You’re wasting your time & energy focusing on the symptoms rather than the cause, which suits FFG down to the ground.

The second graph is even more noteworthy.
87.2% of our immigration in 2023 came from outside the EU, which is the 3rd highest in the EU.
Ask the native Americans about immigration how’s that going for them? Us Irish are on the same path can you prove me wrong?

This is useless information without the outward migration of these countries. The overall population growth would be useful too.

“In the year to April 2024:
* We had 149,200 people move to Ireland and 69,900 people move from Ireland
* People coming into the country consisted of 30,000 returning Irish citizens, 27,000 other EU citizens, 5,400 UK citizens, and 86,800 other citizens including Ukrainians
* People leaving the country consisted of 34,700 Irish citizens, 10,600 other EU citizens, 3,000 UK citizens, and 21,500 other citizens including Ukrainians.”
Our 86,800 non-EU figures consist of Ukrainian refugees, American international students, Filipino nurses, asylum seekers from Somalia etc etc. Ireland is attractive to immigrants from all over the world because it’s an English-speaking country in the EU. This is not necessarily a negative thing
