Migration advisor to the orgnisation Liam O'Dwyer said:"The fears that we would have would be that a large number of hotel beds would be withdrawn, given the tourist commitment that many of the hotels would have.
"You’ve got the guts of about 11,500 to 12,000 people in pledged accommodation at the moment and the idea is to try and bring that right up further to 15,000-16,000 if possible." "We think that within the commercial sector there are sufficient larger buildings out there, and it's those that should be tackled.
"But in a time of crisis at European level, the temptation can be to inadvertently start mirroring the negative terminology that is being used in some instances around migration.
Irish people should be a priority not unvetted asylum seekers not Algerian or Nigerian or Ukrainians these asylum seekers take advantage of Ireland's good nature it's time to roll in the welcome mat and put the Irish people first
Best they keep them there,as I definitely won't be giving any business to anyone who harboured these so called Ukrainians via Africa,Georgia, Algeria or wherever else they are from.
The IHFcomms want it everyway. Their cake and eat it. During covidFLU hotels stopped entrance to public but had guests 😂 think about it. They then jumped on the profiteering of refugees. Now coming to summer they want tourists. And their outrageous charges and shocking service
Tourists earn us money, economic refugees cost us money
Try this bed for size then back to me. Hypocrisy

If they don’t like it. Send them back
Hotels are built for tourists not refugees.
It was / is often the case renting in general that the owner would only let to you September to April then you had to be out so they could rent it weekly to tourists during the season. Happened to me several times over the years.
9997 hotels available in Ukraine. The scammers don't need to be in Ireland. fakeugees plantation IrelandisFull GreatReplacement
I guess hard working Irish people who'd like a weekend or a week away should just suck it up, right?
Should be interesting, will the hotels remove them by force ? Was there any thought process on next steps or the hotels were their “forever homes” 😒
OMG,who would have thought that.........😆😆😆😆
This is a war Ukraine with America provoke America and Britain under mind peace negotiations last year this wil effect thousands of workers and businesses who rely on tourism for there income were was all this concern for the people cought up in America wars
They're right to have concerns. This is all going to blow up in Roderics' face by March. There will be mayhem and the government only have themselves to blame.
Send those here from areas nowhere near the conflict home,that could reduce the numbers, Do not allow those still there,who have ppl here in Ireland to just be just allowed live here.Was told by a UA woman that when the war is over her husband is going to come & live here then!
Send them to America, it’s an American war.
