@ckouros@RueDaungier How many times have I heard this story? Originally, it was white Irish people on the dole, then it was black people, and now it's refugees? Who next, I wonder?!
1/ I'm covering crime - especially in Dublin - for many years.
What I can tell you with certainty is this: There is zero evidence (zilch) that the increase in refugees or asylum seekers coming into the Republic in the last couple of years has led to an increase in crime.
