Anthony Monaghan is from the beautiful West of Ireland. Due to the poor economy, he had to leave home at the age of fifteen in search of work abroad. After many hard years, he found success in America and earned enough to buy a house back in Ireland. Nonetheless, he was evicted and, once again, did not have a home in his homeland. Now, he is going back in search of answers. He travels the country and talks to Irish people from all walks of life, from a homeless Dubliner to John McGuinness of the Irish Parliament. My Ireland exposes the corruption behind the displacement of thousands of Irish people through economic migration, wrongful evictions, and the homeless crisis. It tells a story shared by countless men and women who, like Monaghan, lost their homes in Ireland.
I run a business and my wife is a designer working for a reputable firm. We have no dependents and no loans repayments and yet we can get a mortgage. The bank told us our ability to pay 1700 a month on rent for over 7 years isn't an indication that we could repay a mortgage of 900 euros. Planning to sell up and move abroad within next 12 months. I love my country but by god do I hate the c**ts in charge. I've paid taxes since I was 16 and yet we can't afford a home.
U r dead right if u tax payers Banks gives very less , if u claim doll and u get almost everything free... But try to buy Small house or different banks too bro...
Countryside is always an option
How is it the politicians fault if a bank won’t give you a mortgage? They don’t control banks’ lending policies.
It’s obscene. Criminal actually. My American kids in their 20’s own their own homes. My son and his fiancée bought a 4 bedroom house in Connecticut one year out of college with almost no money down and yet my highly educated nieces and nephews from Ireland have had to immigrate for the reason you mentioned. Even with €80,000 to put down and great jobs my niece and her boyfriend could not get a mortgage. That’s just insane. Now they live in Canada. My other niece has moved to Australia and my nephew is in Belgium.
Good luck on your journey. Having lived abroad I can tell you that the Irish Banking system is a joke.
Indeed i live here and we are living day by day. I have a wife and two small kids. We are living in a freezing cold extremely damp house that we rent. Since winter set in the house is also now infested with mice.
I really believe owning a house should not be a luxury for the well off. It should be a basic right. After all we are all just looking after the property for a short time we can't bring it with us.
Agree. Basic universal income, housing & utilities, food, health care.
Imagine what people could achieve if those primal struggles were eliminated!
How about a Tesla, free food, electricity, heat, phone, clothes, 8 months of vacation, anything else.
@@STEVE-lk2ft If you're against making stuff free, why not go even further in the other direction? Abolish all dole, no child supports, all private hospitals, replace gardaí with private security companies, etc etc.
All you can do to argue against free housing is suggest that it magically means we have to make everything in the universe free somehow.
@@StNick119 no, it’s just one more step to eventually getting there though.
Love Ireland.
Living here, I have watched this beautiful country ruined by a corrupt, self-serving government 😢
@GR Liverpool fought for us so we could have the future they never had its gone to the dogs what the politicians have done bringing in any tom dick and harry and never looked after there own its doomed.
Ruined by the EU and the people who voted to join . Everyone knows EU was founded on the sole principle of mixing Europe to avoid nationalism. As we know the chocolate pppl don’t care for nationality, they just run away
It’s a depressing dump
@GR Liverpool why are you waiting for a house? Why don't you buy one?
@GR Liverpool they were affordable 5 years ago.
I can't believe corruption has affected my own country aswell. We need to do something about this, and not just for Ireland, but the whole world.
Is the corruption not brought on by the market?
@@toyotaprius79 certainly not, the wealth of a nation is though
Oh so Haiti Cambodia and Congo to name but a few examples, aren't corrupt? Take your college revisionist bolshie crap and shove it!!
Corruption has been around since men started walking upright,pal. The reason it is getting bad in the west,is because none of US did anything to stop it
Hmmm right
@@LateNightRewrites ... cmon
I can't wait to visit Ireland. I love Ireland 🇮🇪 ❤
The government don’t give two fu*ks about us. Im 22 and started full time employment straight out of college 5 months ago and I’m paying €900 a month to live in Dublin as well as paying more than half my salary in tax. Absolute disgrace.
Fucking appalling.. not everyone has mammy or daddy to help ...those types will never no how hard it is
@@itsAurora-zq8cb h
I'm paying 320 a month to live in santry hahaha
@@BeatsByClover a box room?
That's our free market for ya.
€400 per month used to be considered reasonable. Rent sould never be more than a quarter or one third of our monthly pay. But the pressure to not wind up homeless or back with the parents is so high - that alone gets exploited, cause we're such a good country for investment.
I'm sharing €900 per mo too out of €1800 for a 2 bed flat. And everyone I know said I found a bargain. ...
It is ridiculous. It's the market. 85% 9f residencies in Dublin are for rent! It's the hollow lie of jobs and prosperity and "foreign direct investment" that nobody knew they were asking for.
I'm the only person I know who's seen this movie and it's been released years now. If the man behind the film had any brains he would make it free on UA-cam for every Irish person to watch and make money from the adverts. That ship has sailed and this will be another movie that could have had an impact but achieved very little..... Apart from a bit of ego stroking by showing it at artsy film festivals.
I’m still going to pay to watch it, but you’re right! Why not make it free for everyone to help it make more of an impact? This does seem a little greedy.
@@empressironbladder8942 This film could have been relevant years ago, the film maker clearly doesn't understand if he wanted to make an impact he should have put it on YT free for anyone to watch. The ad money from YT would have made him money from every viewing. When I saw this in Dublin it was in a small cinema with a handful of others 🤷🏻♂️
I won't argue for or against making the movie free on UA-cam, but it sounds like you think ad revenue is much bigger than it actually is. It varies greatly, but one figure I got from the article "What is the Approximate UA-cam Ad Revenue per View?" on ViewsReviews is that it can be less than 2 cents per view per ad.
If that were the case for this guy, if all 5 million or so people in Ireland watched it once, and the movie had one ad, he'd only make about €5,000. Meanwhile, if people paid, say, a fiver each to see it in cinemas or to get a DVD or to stream it, then he'd only need 1,000 people to see it to make the same amount.
@GR Liverpool Where?
I can remember this happening in the late 80’s- early 90’s. Everyone I knew left for England, Canada,, US, Australia or South Africa. Ireland repeating the mistakes of the past. When will things change? Kids are living with parents in to their 30’s. Our children cannot earn a living wage. The cost of rent is as high as SF, or NYC. There is a huge problem. The taxes are very high. Our kids and a friend tried to rent a house on the south side and the owner requested that the parents sign the lease as guarantors. It is disgusting.
It'd crap
Hi,,, you've got it all wrong,,, everything is grand, no problems here,,, millionaires are getting richer, the politicians are doing a wonderful f**** up our little country and kissing arse all over Europe, and the vulture culture is here to steal away your house, so, everything is hunky dory right ??
Rent in Dublin is much higher than NYC. My daughter lives in Williamsburg Brooklyn and her and her friend have a huge apartment, 3 enormous bedrooms, a large kitchen, a dining room, two bathrooms and a large patio. They each pay $850 including utilities. The total rent is $1700. My highly educated niece in Dublin could not afford to rent a dump and was living home at 28. She has now moved to Canada. She has a gorgeous apartment in Vancouver which is the most expensive state in Canada and she can still afford to save most of her income. She is willing to live there away from family for 5 years because that’s the only way she can save to buy a house back home. ,
@@graceanne385 @Grace Anne it's truly a shame when our young well educated children now leave because they either can't get affordable rent here or wages that are in line with their various skills and education.
But on there other side of the coin, young qualified people will highly unlikely get the same job incentives in this country as they will in any other country.
They get treated like, well it's a sore point with me, better of leaving sleeping dogs sleep 😴,
I am glad to hear your daughter is doing so well, best of luck to her.
I also think though,, it truly is an exceptional opportunity to live and work in other countries. That is an amazing experience to have💚💚💚
I agree Liam, traveling broadens ones horizons but it should be done by choice. Ireland youth have been chased away for far too long now searching for opportunities. It’s wrong. Our country needs to do better. Why try to better yourself in a country that does not back those who do. In Ireland you need to be very rich or unemployed to have a roof over your head. That’s not right. The ones paying all the taxes are the ones who are penalized the most. It’s why I moved to America, my kids are thriving here but if things were different in Ireland I would be home with my family and friends in a country I love dearly.
Thank you from Chen Tai Chi Ireland for making this very important film.We need more filmmakers like this and to talk about what we letting happen to our beautiful country, culture and people. Act now to protect our children's future.
Good luck it’s too late for a lot of us
Greetings from razor close Orwellian America... Start by heavily vetting those who teach your children.. If those teachers happen to be a relative its best to keep your distance.. Much love a damn tragedy the Netherlands as well.. All bad.. In fact all of those places are success stories on socialism here from the mainstream cancer..
@@triggerwarning859 Lol, Ireland has been on a strict diet of globalism for 10+ years. We're already there with you in the nightmare, don't let any propaganda tell you otherwise. Source: I live here in Ireland

@@user-kl9lu4dq6g Question is why are you here, you're FAR from part/full Irish
I'm an American. All four of my grandparents were from Ireland. My wife and I went there with our only son for our twenty-fifth anniversary. It's a wonderful place.
I'm sure the country has issues, like all countries do. We found the people there to be loving, kind, and grateful. The country is beyond beautiful. That's what I think of when I think about Ireland.
It’s a mess, wouldn’t bother coming back
Your seeing ireland through the usual eyes of an american tourist wearing rose tinted glasses...this is not the land of "The Quiet Man" or any if that hollywood rubbish, these are real serious issues for Irish people.
@@irishsilvegoldstacker6519 - I know that. I have talked to Irish people. Like I wrote, I'm sure the country has issues, like all countries do.
I definitely don't think of Irish people through the lens of Hollywood. I have relatives there, and I heard a lot about them.
However, it's true I don't know what it's like to live there. And, I know your politics can be as contentious as it gets here at times.
A study showed the Irish people were among the most charitable in the world, not in amount, but in giving out of what they have. You're in a good place overall, at least it seems that way to me.
At the same time, when I think of Ireland, I think of how long ago, the Vikings invaded places, but when they got to Ireland, they were defeated badly. The Irish aren't quiet! My extended family isn't quiet!
We are an Irish couple who have currently lived in a homeless hostel in Dublin city and this ad for documentary only begins to scratch at the problems, compounded by COVID-19, there is surging homelessness and desperation which has led to widespread addiction to crack cocaine. The powers that be quite simply don't want to know... This country is a disgrace where hundreds of young working age men and women sleep in tents or doorways dulling the emptiness with alcohol or drugs.
Same in America. These so called leaders are destroying people’s lives. Our youth are living in the streets and people losing their lives to addiction. It’s a tragedy.
@@Georgian1717 it's the market, the leaders just coast on it and sell us out
You have got that right! As someone who's been there years ago its only because of father Mcverry(one of the main men on this topic and in the clip) got my ass into rehab from streets and prison that I have a life (others not so lucky includingmy brother Mark dead 4years now)...and yes the crack epidemic is outta control...I thought the smack was bad!
@@davokelly7876 Father mcverry is and apparently always has been right in the thick of it and it was through the mcverry trust and also Dublin Simon community,,,, they really helped! Glad you are happy and have things on track., Staying positive and we'll get there too!
@@shanejosephlinnie4700 good man Shane keep up the good work buddy. And there may be no final place of full recovery (unless heaven) if you're spiritual and believe in God, but enjoy the journey along the way to being the best you, ye get me. Take it easy pal stay safe safe 🙏
I live in the Ireland for last 16 years and I've seen that country fall and rise again... We can all say how good or bad is current situation, but when it comes to real deal then everyone is in its own corner, greedy selfish people is a real problem alright, we need to rise and help each other, especially those people whom are homeless.
No i
Story happening in the states too. God bless Ireland 🇮🇪
Emigration and immigration are total opposites
@@liambury529 I believe he is talking about the increasing inability to afford to live here for so many people.
Housing costs are back near celtic tiger levels and middle income earners are being taxed to the tune of 57%.
Hard work is penalised and you have to earn a hell of a lot and attain a high level of education to maintain a basic lifestyle.
People who bought before the height of the Celtic Tiger and should have lost the homes then still have them now. Some of whom are charging extorniate rent or renting on AirBnB. The Government are a shower of wankers as are the banks but somehow the construction sector and the greedy f*ckers who had the decking out the back, the Christmas shopping trips to New York and the apartment in Bulgaria also get a pass and they shouldn’t.
Blame the immigration you love so much for all this buddy . Quit trying to act like your finding solutions, your the problem!
Rents are 3 times higher than during the celtic tiger.
@Razor Mouth☘️
Obviously I'm talking about rates, not total tax paid. Earn over €71k and you pay 40% PAYE, 8.8% PRSI and 8% USC. 56.8%.
Guess what the top rate of tax is for someone who earns €300k? Exactly the same. Why should it be?
We claim to be progressive, but we squeeze the fuck out of the middle.
@Razor Mouth☘️
Reading comprehension not a strong point for you?
The whole "Landlord" thing never went away!
I love Ireland
It's a most accepting land then rest of europ and uk,
Freedom to practice my religious matters,
Yes corruption is killing it,
Its everywhere, Should never be allowed in Ireland
We have our share of garbage here in the states.
What you strive for you get get it ;)
Peace & 💚 from Dublin ireland X
Honestly your country is in much better shape (economically) than for example my country, Spain.
It's a bit more complicated than that but yes, Spain is fucked. Your leaders are as corrupt as any in Latin America.
Spain is unfortunately mixed with African blood as per the subjugation of Spain for 800 years under islamists between800-1600 AD.
Spain has that genetic default
@@orphanoforbit7588 yes, I understand Ireland has also issues to solve 👍🏻
@@adolfryan1930 what the hell are you talking about??? You re saying because arabs were there...for 800 years...they ve got a gene pb???? Who are toy Adolf???
Yeah, I am an immigrant myself and a I know how it feels not being able to live in our own country for a certain reason. However, I like to be here in Ireland. The Irish are very friendly and I don't feel discriminated. (I am from a country where we cry for rain, now I cry for sunshine, Kikikikikikki)
Glad you're enjoying life here, where are you from?
@@gespenst650 Thank you. I am originally from Cabo Verde.
You can always go home.
@@Ciaradexy Lovely comment, if you’ve nothing good to say just shut up!!!
Your fleeing war and brutality , why would u even care about discrimination or unfriendliness if it did ever occur? This word discrimination is so funny especially from asylum seekers . Your literally being given a free home
I love Ireland and it's a good country to stay even though home is home but I love Ireland as my second home. God bless Ireland and the government including all the people who live in the country.
The government are blessed enough with moolah and don't give a toss about rural Ireland
A corrupt Government does not deserve blessings! But I will say god Bless the people of Ireland.🙏🏽
What’s to love about this expensive, damp & grey dump?
The Government...................WHAT
A country in which you can’t get planning permission on land you own! The country is a fucking disgrace at times
That's the whole idear. Get people out of the country and destroy the villages
@Mark Reilly- You are bang on. Lots of problems and seems like elected officials don’t care. I tried to add space to the home and everyone gave a shit but talk about traffic on the quays and they’re busy.
They want us all living in high rise rabbit hutch in dumps of a citys
Yes, that is disgraceful and shameful,,, there is a bunch of idiots running this country that I would not put in charge of running a piggery, and the thing is, they aren't all elected, so the politicians aren't a %100 to blame either but they are in charge so blame does fall on them ultimately.
@Razor Mouth☘️ they can stick there broadband....i think i could get on quiet fine without it then live in a overpopulated 3rd world slum
A must watch i think👍👍👍
Fantastic!
Great country Ireland love it 😃💚🤍🧡😃❤❤😃
Years ago people immigrated because they had no choice they had to now they immigrated because they realize that there are other places you can live happily then in Ireland.
Nobody wants to leave their home permanently by choice. It is natural to want to be surrounded by friends, family, community etc.
No worries Irish people. Your country is still way better economy condition than other European countries, like Poland for example..
I thought Poland was doing well in recent years.
@@disturbedcarrot no, because payments has been raised, but in the same time life cost ( petrol, bill's, food etc) is way higher. So u earn more, and spend more ..so basicly nothing change..
@@mariuszkarczewski1939 sorrybtobhear that, any better trying to buy a house there, almost impossible in Ireland now?
@@disturbedcarrot no... forget about it... prices are so high...
@@mariuszkarczewski1939 lol Poland is way better than Ireland .
Our economy?
We are SUPPOSED to be rich but we never see it.
Our healthcare system for example is pathetic when compared to Poland's or anyones.
And also one more thing , Ireland has very high crime in recent years , rapes murders up several orders of magnitude.
Everyone knows why.
Poland doesn't have that issue .
Finally something that's not a Bord Failte ad.
Yessss
I'm here over 15 yrs and the only reason I'm planning to leave next year is that I'm unable to find affordable property to buy. Also the quality of properties for sale is very low. To be able to afford A+ energy efficiency home you have to be millionaire.
Great production!
Pray for Ireland 🇮🇪🙏
Up Mayo!
Yup pal
Your house would be repossessed a hell of a lot quicker in the US than here....
Don't pay your mortgage, wave it goodbye.
That doesn't make it ok
That is simply unequivocally not true.....period.
In America there are far more legal protections to protect lenders. You are not even considered to be in default till you are 4 months late. In most states even if you are a year behind the bank must work with you to bring you current and let you keep your home. If you become stable they put your arrears to the back end of your loan and bring you current. They are required to do this by law. In Ireland the banks and the politicians are In each other’s pockets and the citizens are left unprotected. Then the banks sell the defaulted properties to the corrupt politicians become land lords and charge astronomical rent. It’s criminal.
Just a thought here but maybe if people stop leaving and stayed to fight along with everyone else we could have fixed this issue by now I know there been time's in our history where this hasn't been an option but certainly in the last 50 years it has instead too many have given in and left instead of standing up and been counted along with the rest of us who did stay we need to stop running and stand and fight for our future not run far away and shout from another shore I'm not saying this is easy but fighting for your rights never are I just feel if more could stay we would have a better future so no one has to be forced to go away for a better life just 1 opinion here the first generation that does this it'll be hard but your not doing it for you your doing it for the future of our country like everyone here I've seen many go but i decided to stay and its been very hard at times but there's no place I'd rather be than ireland it's my home our ancestors fought and died for our freedoms so we didn't have to the very least we can do is fight on we have the luxury of not having to pick up a gun anymore to get heard its still a fight though stop leaving and march for your rights don't let anyone send you away from your home
Irish just love to travel , we will be back one day
Where are you Dave
@David Quill What is it like to live in Bali?
I think, as an educated Irishman, that there's an unspoken psychic hangover in my fellow citizens. We're still throwing off the yoke of oppression foisted on us by British rule and church dogma. A lack of confidence in ourselves lingers still, a type of willingness to accept systems that are okay, though not as good as they should be. Speak with confidence at your peril. Our young people are beautiful, energetic and more than able to start innovative businesses, and should be funded generously to stay in our cities and towns, creating a new and populous Ireland!! A million families working in this wonderful country can make us a world class economy!🙂🇮🇪
Haha as if
This looks great 🙏🏻 the ‘brain drain’ emigration issue is tragic. The wages haven’t changed (much) since the 70’s, yet the cost of living has gone up exponentially.
Since the 70’s the government has been determined to destroy this country. Well done for shining a light on this tragic issue.
Saying that wages haven't changed since the 70's is clearly untrue. Statistics can very easily be viewed online - I would suggest you look at them before making ridiculous and untrue statements.
Honest to God..
The wages may have risen since the 70's, but the cost of living has risen exponentially more than the wages,, how much will you get for €10 now ?? Compare that to £10 back in the 70's or the 80's, which I'm a bit more familiar with.. how much will you take out with you now for a night out ?? ,I honestly don't know, €100-- €200?? ,, Back in the 80's £20 , even £10 would do you for the night..
There's a lot of good done and being done, but this government and all previous governments have destroyed our country..
They have bowed, bent their knee, kissed arse till they ate foreign shit.
Garrett couldn't do enough for his queen. Charlie robbed us blind .
All down through the years we gave away our rights.
We sold our souls to foreign governments. Our fisheries is a laughing stock.wehave no telephone company,no Irish bank,no airlines. NONE to call our own %100.
And the thing is, there isn't any better government to take over, but they're all too big headed to come together and make it work for us
@@greenknight2166 people in Ireland earn less money now than they did 40 years ago.
Our parents were able to afford houses and raise families easily enough from "unskilled" labour and working class jobs, and that's often very difficult now for people in their 20s and 30s despite many of them being more qualified, college educated, and working in more specialised fields in many cases.
Well made
I know this man, very kind man
I would imagine that the big cities which draw tourists have lost a lot of housing to Air B’nB and the like. Even in my small city in North Carolina, desirable but quite modest places are priced out of range for ordinary working people be it renting or buying. Big real estate conglomerates buy up apartments and sell them as condominiums. Then the government wonders why poverty and homelessness grow.
As long as most Irish politicians are also landlords this problem will never be resolved. I am from Dublin and left in the 80’s. I am resentful that I had to leave my family and my country to succeed. Now my highly educated nieces and nephews are leaving today. My American children who are the same age as their Irish cousins and earn even less own homes in America. My Irish nieces and nephews can barely afford rent and saving for the astronomical down payment for a house is almost impossible. So they have found themselves in Australia, Belgium and North America.
Has this film been released ?
We've a major homeless and housing problem here in Ireland, I'm 29, married, have a pretty decent job and a home owner, I cant even keep on top of the mortgage without moving extra family in to help cover the bills. Im struggling to keep it and I'd consider myself pretty well off compared to some friends and family, if it's this hard for me,they've got no chance at all
Sounds like California. Where I was born and raised. Our small artist community have range rovers now. Doesn’t match the small, minimal beach shacks which used to be affordable. We are desperate for a housing crash… it’s good that California government have housing initiatives to build 2.1m affordable housing units over the next 10 years.
Where can I watch all the movie?
Nice
I'm irish/American 💪
Where is the full film available?
Is this about Ireland or the United States?
Lives at home with the parents at 32, i work full time and cat afford to rent or get a mortgage, sums this place up , kip
Left Ireland for USA in 1987. Return home often and love it but she ain't what she used to be. States have been good to me.
Where to watch this movie?
If the man behind it had any sense he would put it on UA-cam for all to see. It's years old now and hardly any ordinary Irish have seen it.
Continued discrimination for those of us from the children's homes
ditch the euro and establish your own currency
Does anyone know how I can watch this film?
Would be interesting to ask foreigners who live in Ireland about the pros and cons, what was a culture shock for them, and what is done better in Ireland than in their homelands.
I guess most of them are here because nothing is done better in their country.
@@freespeechisneverwrong9351 Personally I moved to Ireland for work, having worked in two other countries before, like most of my colleagues. Now that we work from home, we are in our home countries, and every other day I see a farewell-email from someone, as they decided not to come back to Ireland, even if that means leaving the company.
They should’ve stayed in their homelands. The Irish are a small people. Stop mass immigration, period.
@@deaconwolfe1808 I agree with you about mass immigration, I wouldn't want it to my country, nobody would. But I don't think studying and working abroad for a few years classifies as mass immigration, and if the Irish were not allowed to do that, they would probably riot.
@@buskergirl great but it’s the third world immigrants not the international workers that are staying and draining the system.

The media and politicians talk a lot about the new "modern Ireland".

What were they talking about?
Where can I watch this? My paternal great great great grandparents were from Ireland and Scotland I hope to visit someday...
Don’t bother it’s awful
@@kevinpierce3458 lol really? Well that suxs thanks for letting me know
Notwithstanding all the challenging issues we as a country are facing right now, I still believe that living here in Ireland isn't as negative as portrayed by some.
For example; yes, our education and health systems need major improvements; but it is somewhat extreme to refer to them as of "third world" standard?? As someone who has worked in " third world" systems abroad, the flawed, and often inefficient systems that exist here are way superior in comparison.
Homelessness?? Yes, we have to do more to address this; but, let us not delude ourselves. Many factors contribute to homelessness - not just unaffordable rents and government mismanagement.
Some more rational perspective required in my opinion.
Sad that we have to compare ourselves to a third world country to feel like we're not so bad,
@@karlquinn8631 Comparing?? With respect, others were actually doing the comparing - unfairly in my opinion.
I was actually stating a fact in response to overexagerated comparisons.
@@tombyrne7784 yeah I still don't see the need to compare, we should be aiming higher as a society, rather than settling for less because others may have it worse, all I'm sayin, with respect of course 👍
Immigration is always a factor for homelessness whether u personally thinks it's good or bad. I remember watching a documentary on homelessness. Around the year 2000s, the problem was close to being solved by this nun or was pretty low. Immigration started up again and homelessness increased. I went to university in Galway and I remember counting at least 6 homeless Syrian looking people on door inlets. And that same year I heard these dumbasses on the news saying they have accepted more refugees to the point of filling up hotels and hostels, and obviously contributing to the housing crisis. 20000 new homes needed. All because the EU is jabbing us with a stick to fill some figures on a spreadsheet. Like bruh, cmon, we need to take our time and build houses. This is just common sense
And university is just an evil place and all young people are screwed including myself
I love Ireland and I live in Ireland as an immigrant. However, I can assure you that your health system is almost non-existent compared to countries in much worse economical conditions - unfortunately.
My life has been changed , to find myself in here to be so unlucky
My Ireland is now an airport.. It was Ireland now its anything but🇮🇪😢
The ff and fg are the landlord's.
And the rest of them....
Where is full video?
Looks to be a great documentary.
We are very proud people, proud of our heritage, of our culture, but in recent years there's very little to be proud about in this country, and I say that with great sadness.
I’m not sure I understand. High tax and no good paying jobs?
We have a housing crisis going on, houses are extremely expensive in part because the government is determined on letting the free market roll, investment funds are buying up lots of properties as rental places, meaning young families and people can't afford a home. Families of 4 or 5 people living in hotels because they are homeless. People not able to start families or plan for the future because they can't afford to move out of the family home in they're mid thirties, sometimes 40s.
Public healthcare has been a shambles for a long time and getting worse, nurses are over worked and under paid, and so many emigrate. So we train them up here, then send them on they're way. Elderly people left on Gurney's for 24 hours in a and e departments because there's no one to attend to them.
A project to build national children's hospital went over budget by 2 billion, no one got a slap on the whatever the reason might be, no one was reprimanded.
That's just a couple of things, I could go on.
Thank you for that. I have rentals and they are being purchased for rental. The government is controlling people now by squeezing money 💰 out of people making inflation
People of Éire should be way more concerned about the emerging trend of Pharmacy/Chemist shops opening all over the country. Take a real look around and see what is happening. We are meant to be living longer and more healthily, yet the health system is telling us the opposite. Regardless of Covid 19, now why is that? The Big Lie........
What?! I'm more concerned about tourist shops and hotels.
I’ve never known a more medicated nation, everyone is on some kind of drug
So much for returning home, sigh.
Jesus christ about Ireland for the Irish. Last thing we need is to be reminded were been arse fucked by the government. We need cheering up at the cinema. For some fun .
Go on out and see BLACKLIGHT with Liam Neeson. And aidin quinn. A stellar Irish cast and definitely worth a watch.
Bring it home Liam.

Rise...THE FIGHTING IRISH!!
The sub title is a start of what is wrong.
There’s a lot of amazing things in Ireland but there few major big issues that I encountered over my last 6 working years here( said working for the foreign haters)
- health system is a European shame! Totally a chaotic situation starting with GPs not having minimal condition’s for patients.
- Taxes are extremely high because doesn’t guarantee your health and safety in the country if you needed it.
- There’s a terrible culture of separation for foreigners that can be seen in many sectors.
- There’s a extremely overpriced childcare. Childcare should be accessible for everyone and women could really step up in this country.
Why don't they mind their own children like nature intended? Isn't that the thing to a
step up to?
All they are doing is feeding the problem by leaving the home and going out to work.
@@wolfthequarrelsome504 so you are saying that mothers should not go out to work mmmm? Mothers are entitled to go out to work just like fathers are too bad if you dont like that get over yourself. It's not your choice about if females go out to work or not now is it? That would be a no it's not your choice. How dare you say females should stay at home what century are you living in? . Females are not adding to the problem by going out to work that's a load of bollocks grow up
It’s all yours
I came to Ireland because it was the only English speaking country in Europe apart from UK. I thought I will build my career here. But now I realise I just made a huge mistake. I have spent 30,000 in my education and I can’t get a decent job because my background is in business and not in IT. Most of the jobs in Business are for EMEA or for senior positions.
I am working now but my boss is so abusive. I started having anxiety because of the toxic work culture. I can’t leave the job,I have a loan on me, I can’t get new job, I have been trying to get out this company for two years.
Rents are so high and I just feel I am in shackles and trapped. Never felt so depressing before.
Leave everything..take the first plane...You can t let people in your work abusing you...unfortunately...it seems common nowadays...Run away or you ll do a burnout..They consider you as a pawn..after you another one..Life is too short to have it bad...Take care if tou
You keep searching and you will find. Have patience, this 2 years were the worst.
Ya, it's pretty horrible. Ireland's embrace of foreign multinationals, especially for tech, has turned much of the country into something soulless and unrecognisable. Education is a joke, too many people are petty and vulture-like, and too many institutions are more than happy to take you for all you're worth. Honestly, it's no wonder suicide, drug use and mental health issues are so common here.
Leave.
Ayesha Ahmed report your boss to human resources dont take that shite I wouldnt keep a diary if whays going on you will need that then take a case against your boss there are laws here for that stop letting yourself be builled you live 1 dont let a1 put you down. can do it stop this happening to you. Standup for yourself
I want somewhere to live in dublin...im not from here.. but im stuck here...and im desperste to go back...been trying to leave this town for eight years. .its a bloody nightmare...wtf? Used to take a week to sort out a new place...wthell is this crap...
God bless ireland

Famine tactics again, increase rent and price of living, people have to emigrate then, rich kids get privileged while everyday people are stressed, addiction, suicide, emigration, it's extremely depressing to see your country slowly fall apart caused by a government who the people never elected in the first place, people will rise again, Tiochaidh Ar Lá
System has to change .
Monarchy , Fascism or anarchy is better than a banker run democracy.
Quite possibly the most corrupt system ever devised is modern representative democracy.
And farmers benefit
Wow, its scary to think because we are all free to comment and say what we think, some Irish people think they are to represent their country by being the biggest racist tosspots possible to some foreigners commenting under this video.
This might have been made for the Irish by the Irish,it does not give anyone a right to be disrespectful and cruel to others. As a foreigner, I can say I love this country more than some can even understand and living here means the world to me.
I didn't run away for better opportunities,my country is great and I would be employed back home too. Not to mention I do as much as possible as a citizen for this place. I love this place ever since I learnt of it's culture and history and I have to say I've never been made feel so unwelcome as reading what some people really think of me and my fellow foreign people. I can't believe the hatred and disrespect, call it biggotry against other nations.
Some people here are fixed on thinking unless you are from an english speaking country you are second class. Well screw them all. I love Ireland and real Irish people. The ones who live up to their reputation of being kind and welcoming.
And lastly, this sort of 'if you dont like it then leave' kind of comments are as useful as a matchstick in a house fire. I'm really really shocked at this. Who the f these people think they are? None of them own this country like. You are born here by chance so be glad you like the place you were born in.
@GR Liverpool oh no, sorry if that was not clear. I meant fuck the people who hate me sinply because I wasn't born here😔 by all means anyone can dislike me I accept it,but hatred,blame and vile racist things I don't think me or any other foreigner deserves.
I can only talk for myself but other then my birthcert (which is essentially just a piece of paper) I feel as Irish at heart as any. I always did.
I do see what's going on and it angers me as it would if I would see my country go through this crap. I feel for the people of this country. For the young ones because of their future is limited and for the old ones because they deserve better in their old age. Its madness.
The folks who stayed or didn't have to leave are pretty happy with things the way they are. They keep voting for it.
It has always been a handy safety valve for FF and the likes, that the problem will always go away (emigration).
You get what you vote for.
@Courtney Carey yes mammy
Ya and no political opposition to it
You’re completely correct.
There is definitely a plethora of people who have done well over the last 30 years, purely through house price inflation. Your average couple in their 60s who bought in the 90s have made massive returns on their investment in their own house, so of course these people will vote FFG all day long. The I'm alright Jack culture in this country is sickening.
As if Ireland is a democracy mate I dont remember voting on anything the government has decided to do in this country over the last few years, i.e bailing out banks or ushering in communism under the guise of a "pandemic". they do what they want it seems and the everyday man and woman just puts up with it because who else wants to lose their Home/livelihood.
Work or the lack of it is no longer the driver of em migration, the problem is we as a people no longer run our own country, we have been betrayed again.
Brussels is in control now, our political class have sold the country from underneath us
It's called over inflated economy due to government spending,,,
It's gouverment policy not vulture funds,,,
When I talk to lot of my friends here to check why people emigrate to other countries from this beautiful place, I here one most common answer I.e., Hugh tax and high cost of living
Prayers for the Irish people 🇮🇪 🙏 🇮🇪
Tax tax and more tax. Say goodbye to the skilled and educated youth just like the 80’s. Not enough people to tax so we increase it and all you’re left with is increasing numbers of social welfare sponges that span generations that have no intent on working an honest day of their lives, give no shit for the crisis the country goes through, the environment or anything else as long as their job seekers allowance, dole, unmarried mothers, rent allowance, child payment isn’t touched but increased in every budget. What do they honestly contribute to society. Foreigners come into this country seeking work to which there is plenty of and are gobsmacked at how easy we make it for these social welfare lifers. Shane on us for not insisting they work and contribute to society and taxation.
Very Sad! Such a beautiful Island!
I am Irish American. Ireland is the result of being Occupied by Great Britain. The culture was destroyed decades ago. Sound familiar?
We are ruled by traitors. The Irish man has to leave his home while the 'Great replacement' goes on unabated.
That would be the case if the great replacement existed.
@@dyskr less than 80% of the population now
@@tamonk9054 but you do realise the first Irish settlers were Iberian/North African? (Our closest relatives are actually the Basque). We've also had waves of Anglo-Saxon and Viking/Norman migrations and Ireland is still Ireland. Just because there will probably be a lot of mixed-Europeans in the future doesn't mean Europe as an entity or a culture is suddenly going to disappear...
@@dyskr all those happened over the course of hundreds of years and the ones that were fast were brutally fought until maybe aspects joined into our culture, what is happening now is entirely different and if you had half your wits about you you’d know that, this a drastic ethnic change where vast amounts of people move here in a short amount of time, their cultures will not integrate and neither will the majority of their people, one culture will be suppressed (and in turn so will the people) and the other rise at best taking in some token aspects, there was an article written back in 2005 on how we’d be a minority in our country by 2050 everyday this grows truer, our culture and people have been sacrificed so our government looks better on the global stage and so we can be part of global “community” as we shave away our autonomy, personally I’m done caring i hold no faith in the people of this country but don’t act like we’re not disappearing (much like the rest of Europe, we’re actually lagging behind the rest of Western Europe) when we clearly are
@@dyskr falling birthrates and people coming in from cultures were more kids is the norm = great replacement

Who ?
And yet they will name a train station after James Connolly.
Over the past 50 years the cost of housing has increased around 100 fold. Earnings have not increased even remotely close to this. Perpetual debt has become the standard. A common tragedy is that when someone spends half their life paying a mortgage on a home for their family, the home cannot be passed to their children, because the inheritance tax is so extortionate, the house must be sold to pay it.
Or the governments "fair deal" if a parent or relative does up in a home..
It's not just governments fault, the people were irrationally exuberant, the greed was rampant, the partyimg without care, the rush for housing, 120% loans people wanted, everyone went nuts and played a party in the global crash. I personally didn't, warned it was going to crash 3 years befure it did, fell out with people, I was a complainer, no fun, fuck then, get what you deserve, don't shoot the messenger. But even after all that, the people voted yes to austerity in the referendum. I'll never forget asking friends and family after how they voted, I was sure it would be a unanimous No, but it was a unanimous yes, dear God the stupidity. I never felt so surrounded by zombies in my life, like an episode of the walking dead. And here we are, and again the people aren't awake while the dark cloud of neo fascism grows and spresds, you'll own nothing and you'll be happy. The Worid Economic Forum
Good points but neo fascism?
Neo Fascism?
Really pal?
I'm myself getting very tired hearing that.
It's neo feudalism , or communist technocracy we are in heading for..
Fascism strives for unity of the collective group . Preservation of the nation , respect for tradition, etc etc
I don't think I've ever seen soo much division.
You also expect the leader of a Fascist country to have charisma wouldn't you ?
Michael Martin has the charisma of a wet sock.
Klaus Schwab is almost certainly Jewish .
Lots of the Schwab family intermarried with the Rothschilds.
Go ahead there now search it up you'll get a disclaimer too about it !
@@johnduggan8398 you could say we have global fascism, pockets rising up in Austria, Australia and many other areas or if not fascist, totalitarian. If you look at the now evident forming of a one Worid government or at least one that is authoritative over many countries and even continents, its imposing itself as a single nation, suppressing opposition, centralising control, and severely regimenting economics and social policy. Its different than 1930s Germany but very similar in many regards. National politics, the nation state and democracy are now tainted ideas that don't exist. The illusion of democracy persists but not the reality. Having locally elected representation means nothing when you have authoritarianism, assuming new emergency powers. Agreed, neo feudalism is rising, but I was warning about that for years also. I live in Ireland, I rented for 4 years, rent increased 15%. I paid it with some difficulty. My landlord, an Irushmen with many properties and driving an 85k land rover, served me notice to leave because the new legislation protecting renters from the ever increasing rent hikes (limiting to 4.5% increase) was brought in. I had to leave, he was within his rights, gave sufficient notice. I had to return to living with my parents, I couldn't find any other accommodation. The landlord raised the rent by 50% as soon as I'd moved out. He was capitalising on people's struggles and the demand. His mortgage on the property was no more than 40% of the rent he was charging. He blamed government levies as his reason for evicting me. He stands proudly at every Ireland rugby match. I do not think this man deserves an Irish passport, he is a traitor to his own and that selfishness and greed is destroying Ireland and many other countries. Its an insatiable appetite for more that the empty vessels of this world can never adequately fill.
