Why are anti-woke Rangers fans given lifetime stadium bans but pro-Hamas Celtic fans get off much more lightly? It's because supporting Palestine is part of our elites' luxury beliefs, says Dr David McGrogan.

Keir Starmer's cynical class war on private schools and hereditary peers to appease the hard Labour Left harms us all, says Dominic Lawson, not least as 25% of private school households earn below average income.

A top state school has published its Relationships and Sex Education materials online and the content is damning, says Caroline Ffiske. Stuffed with gender ideology pseudoscience, no wonder teenagers are confused.

Ed Miliband has promised to save Britain's economy from Trump's tariffs. But it wasn't Trump who closed Britain's coal-fired power stations, nor ended oil and gas exploration, nor banned fracking, says Ben Pile.

Irish citizen children rally at Dáil to keep their immigrant dads here

category dublin | racism & migration related issues | news report author Friday July 10, 2009 01:42author by Residents Against Racismauthor email rar.info at yahoo dot ie Report this post to the editors

As the Dáil drew to a close, a group of Irish citizen children gathered to deliver a heartfelt message to Minister Dermot Ahern: please don't send our daddies away.

They were highlighting the situation of a group of fathers of children born in Ireland before 1st January 2005 who currently live in the country a state of legal limbo - and with the ever-present threat of deportation.

"These children are Irish citizens," says Rosanna Flynn of Residents Against Racism. "There aren't two different kinds of Irish citizens, there's just one kind and under the constitution they're entitled to be cherished equally and have both of their parents caring for them. This is the final group of fathers, a few hundred in number, who need their status resolved. Each new round of deportations increases the anxieties they already live under. Now, as TDs begin their summer holidays with their families, we're asking the Minister to make sure this isn't the last summer these children get to spend with their dads."

They came into the state illegally, period.we do not need cultural and ethnic unrest like in britain.all non ethnic irish should be deported .also they would have not been able to reproduce if thed been chucked out.so the kids need to be stripped of there irish passports too.
