Liam your some nobody trying to create stories out of nothing, and promoting racism at the same time, these jobs are for a specific multi-ethnic radio station, who are obviously interested in encouraging diferrent language programs for newcomers here, who else would be able to speak all these languages, its quite clear who these jobs are for.
I shouldn't have to do your work for you but here you go
http://jobbank.fas.ie/servlet/Watis?SESS=86103_4&SERVIC...W.HTM
again you could easily supply weblinks to this story yet you don't which speaks volumes. I don't know much about Sunrise radio but anyway it has very little to do with FAS.
Why do you not even mention the Radio station putting out these ads.
Your unuanced race-baiting stories have already been criticised.
http://www.indymedia.ie/article/75606
Actually what grades are you getting for these 'articles'.
Nothing to do with racism Anon, but everything to do with Irish employment rights for Irish and EU applicants. If I decide to criticise a state agency, then that is my right, and I don't expect to be branded a "racist" for doing so?
Forget the race thing its muddy, why did you single out FAS rather then Sunrise radio, why not even mention the name Sunrise Radio, the FAS thing is just a listing service.
Re: Liam Mullen
Your article is bogus. There are very few illegal immigrants in Ireland. The biggest visa over stayers are US citizens, followed by Australian citizens.
If you are worried about trafficking of people to Ireland, then try your journalist skills pining down the well known drug dealers and "respectable" Irish business men who control this modern day slave trade.
My anti-racist senses tell me that you are one of these people who will make up a story to create a scare, to make an issue......good luck and good night..... you are destined for a successful career in mainstream journalism.
Hi, I am know a lot Nigerian speaking, swahili speaking, Lingala speaking, bangladeshi speaking zulu speaking shona speaking ,,,,,,, Irish people and when i define Irish - it is by the passport/nationality they hold. Not the colour of their skin country of birth ethnicity or culture.The writer of that article needs to open his/her mind.
This post is silly.
This Liam can't even get his facts straight, there is no "South African" language unless he means Afrikaans spoken by the descendents of Dutch settlers, also there are several African origin languages such as Zulu, Xhosa languages etc and of course English is widely spoken in SA. Also, I don't think there is a language called Pakistani, they speak Urdu, Punjabi etc there I believe and also english. Either Liam or Fas have got their facts completely wrong!
I welcome multi-ethnic radio for Swords and can say at the outset that anything will be better than the Joe Duffy phone-in show.
Who knows but the new station producers may come up with innovative programmes i.e. a West African ceili dancing programme featuring a mixture of instruments such a bodhran, fiddle, spoons Yoruba war drums, calabash rattles, senegalese wooden xylophones, fadog stan and the bosca ceoil.
Let's have lots of multicultural hooleys and celebrate our newfound Irish diversity. It could cheer up a lot of distressed mortgage holders during these uncertain recessionary times.
