After centuries of poverty and emigration, Ireland has emerged as a Celtic Tiger with a booming economy. New jobs in construction, hotels, restaurants and in agriculture have been filled by migrant workers, but as ILO TV reports from Dublin, some have fared better than others.

    Jobs such as security guards, luas drivers, luas ticket checkers, bus eireann drivers, shop assistants, shop managers, nurses, doctors- absolute nonsense.

  • no one will ask to go ireland, and no one will be forced to work harder just to get by. irish are stupid, they will never sort out their thoughts, will never remind what they been doing over years, will never asnwer the question why out of 80 milions irish just 4 live in Irelnd.

  • LOL @ THE MUSHROOM EFFECT WORKING CLASS LIKE MYSELF WHO IS IRISH GETS PUSHED OUT DUE TO ''EQUALITY'' STARING ME IN THE FACE,WE ARE LEAVING IRELAND WHILE YOU ARE SINKING OUR COUNTRY WITH THE BLACK ECONOMY YOU ARE IDIOTS

  • @aWeeJock My oh my ... look how many IRISH people went abroad in the past!!! Should they all have been rejected, too??

  • Also many of the jobs that are offered to immigrants are the jobs that non-immigrants do not want to do. For example as explained, most immigrants hold the 3D jobs, dirty, dangerous and degrading. So as I said before immigration fills the jobs non-immigrants do not want to do.

  • it's true it's wrong to treat any people badly, but the true answer is to stop these people coming into our countries in the first place.

    And what of that guy giving it "They are vital to the economy" "They work hard"

    Dammit our own people are being laid off in droves coz they keep shipping the work to india and china where the wages are 'ahem' LOWER!!! and as for "they work hard" so do our own people. If not then who the hell has been doing all the work in our countries for decades?
