    And so on. Hopefully policy makers wondering how to drag Ireland and the EU out of the immigration nightmare they placed it in will consider taking a look at this book. A fair few on this board might consider looking at it too- you know who you are

    Do you have a link for this?

    Alternative Conservatives is a far better description.

    They're not liberals in the truest sense of the term.

    They are. Liberal means no state intervention in any sphere. Call it right wing or left wing if you like.

    How much does it cost?

    Well, Mr RTE Sloppy, I'll tell you.

    It costs hundreds of millions.

    And I'll tell you more.

    Irish workers pay for it.

    We're being phuccing crucified with taxes and levies, yet we spend hundreds of millions on teaching the world.

    Truly Fianna Fail is the Mad Immigration party.
    Hundreds of millions? Really?

    You sir, are a clown, neg rep for you.....

    If I could mass-sterilise the planet, I would. Seriously.

    You fool, don't you even read the newspapers? The government itself has admitted it's spending hundreds of millions on English teaching.

    Are you such a moron that you don't even know how many special English teachers have been employed?

    You're a typical Fianna fail moron. Fianna Fail vermin have ruined our country, and reading an effort by a moron such as you I can why.

    He is right.

    "Assistance to foreign national children who don't speak English in our schools has cost the Irish taxpayer almost €300m in the past three years alone, new figures obtained by the Sunday Independent reveal".

    Cost of teaching English to immigrants exceeds €126m - Latest News, Education - Independent.ie

    Thanks to you both for supplying figures, though frankly the poster OD doesn't deserve your courtesy.

    He's a lazy sloppy Fianna Failer, typical of the gang that has brought our country near ruin.

    Will this creep apologize now for doubting my assertion about the vast costs of teaching the children of countries from Afghanistan to Albania??

    No, because he's a useless Fianna fail slob.
