Episode 105: Immigration And Native Rights

Migration is a normal part of plant, fungi, animal and human existence; however, in the human world, the flow of large populations between societies is often wrought with peril for one or the other group – or both. Thus it is extremely important that a calm, loving but clear-headed analysis is sought on how to balance immigration with native rights. This podcast looks primarily at the current situation in Ireland – where the government has been pushing mass immigration and allowing mass illegal abuse of the asylum system, against the wishes of the vast democratic majority of the indigenous Irish population. However, this discussion also touches on the fundamental issues and principles of migration in general and what is and is not reasonable and healthy. There can be many benefits to migration – for both the point of emigration and the point of immigration, as I know personally – but equally these can be harmful and even devastating in the wrong context. We owe it to ourselves and indeed to the world at large, that we clarify this matter and come to clear action steps. I believe modest and careful immigration can be a blessing, but uncontrolled mass influx of people is culturally destabilising, in Ireland's case historically insensitive, economically pressurising, and at the end of the day often unfair to communities on both sides of the equation, as the Brain Drain prevents the poorer countries from growing, while rendering traditional ways of life in the wealthier country in many cases more difficult to be continued. Tune in to hear why I feel a reform of Irish border policy is urgently needed, but with love!
