Reform Needs to Get its Act Together if it?s to Become a Serious Party Fri Apr 11, 2025 11:00 | Tom Jones
Reform could learn some valuable lessons from the Danish People's Party, says Tom Jones. By focusing on immigration, it forced the Left to clamp down on asylum seekers. Reform, by contrast, seems chaotic and unfocused.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3The Cork Anti Racism Network fully supports the demands of the Tralee asylum seekers. CARN campaigns for civil rights for asylum seekers. We have 4 demands, 1 Right to work, 2 Access to 3rd level education. 3 Closure of direct provision centres 4 An immediate end to all deportations. We are on Facebook and would be delighted to be contacted by our Tralee brothers and sisters.
May i suggest you get in touch with your local t.d. in relation to your allegations as set out above .
God knows they are in deep trouble & with an election
looming on the horizon they will be only too glad to assist .

According to yourself CARN are seeking certain rights for asylum seekers. I have a few points to make about why it might not be feasible to extend these rights on an automatic basis.
Can I also say that each of these rights while not available to asylum seekers are in fact available to refugees.
The right to work - in the current economic climate there are few jobs available to Irish people, particularly unskilled. Were asylum seekers allowed to work pending the processing of their claims, it is likely that there would be resentment towards them from jobless Irish. Not saying that they shouldn't be allowed to work under any circumstances, just making the point that it could cause problems.
Access to 3rd level education - I think this is fair enough that everyone should have access to this.
Closure of direct provision centres - this is a cost effective solution to a financial burden imposed upon the taxpayer. I don't see a problem with direct provision centres themselves, once they are well run and people's rights and dignities are respected.
An end to deportations - if a person is a failed asylum seeker and has exhausted all legal avenues to stay in Ireland, deportation to their country of origin may be a solution. Deportation is the right of all sovereign nations to exercise in the case of illegal immigrants. You will find that almost every country in the world exercises this right, including some of the biggest asylum producing countries such as Nigeria.
I also have a question - do the people of CARN believe in immigration regulation per se? Or do they believe that the rules pertaining to immigration are faulty.
