Sunday, the Junior Minister for Older People, Mary Butler, called for a ban on the controversial trend of Irish nursing homes being closed only to subsequently house asylum seekers.

Just last week, this publication’s investigation into cases of elderly Irish being evicted with their beds going to foreign nationals generated considerable controversy on social media at a time when the Irish establishment is facing intensifying angry protests around the issue of asylum.

As discussed in our previous article, a freedom-of-information request to the state revealed over 40 nursing homes having closed in the past 4 years, and our investigation has identified many that are now filled with asylum seekers. Whether deliberate or not, this process of conversion to asylum centres lacks transparency and it is only through our research that the full scale of the problem is being exposed.

What is clear, however, is that there has been a systemically facilitated process of evicting vulnerable elderly people and that this scandal has been ignored by much of the Irish establishment.

“[Nursing home providers] are looking at providing accommodation for Ukrainian refugees, which can be more lucrative.” – Junior Minister for Older People, Mary Butler

To her credit, Minister Butler raised the issue of nursing home closures months ago even as the CEO of Nursing Homes Ireland Tadhg Daly denied this was even happening. That being said, if Minister Butler realised the gravity of the situation, why didn’t she push for this ban long ago?

More pertinently, how come nobody in the other major parties, civil organisations, and media outlets draw attention to this debacle? This is a question we will be answering as our investigation unfolds, with worrying facts coming to light about the sordid code of silence that permeates the Irish establishment around the topic of state-enforced mass immigration.

    I truly am thankful to The Burkean for their investigative skills and publications of the dirty dark secrets that shatters the two faced hypocrisy,uncaring and morally dead figure of Irish establishment.I will
    not apologize to those that claim innocence because this would be commonplace knowledge in The Industry.40 homes over 4 years averages @ 10 per year, during The Lockdowns from 2020 !…what priority care ?

    Information that had to be sourced through FOI requests, a Junior Min.
    brought to attention months ago DENIED by CEO of NHI. what about
    all the Staff, the NHS, the Minister for health…Martins Coalition????
    Kept their filthy fu.kin gobs shut and still being paid, Scum of the Earth!

    Let’s never shoot the messenger,better late than never but not good
    enough.The shame and humiliation is bad for the readers,but it pales to
    insignificance the unjustly suffering endured by OUR ELDERS, R.I.P.

    For all the guilty responsible it’s clear you lack empathy or virtues
    necessary to work with Humans,you’re only priority is money and self
    Interests. You should be committed to walk in public places with bell
    necklaces, I prefer an anvil…as a warning to all.
    The exposure around Lockdowns has started in the UK,bbc, the UScnn,
    CDC,FDA, Fauci and Wuhan…almost 3yrs. later they duck for cover.
    Truth has been set free, and all the lies, Liers and GUILTY Revealed.

  2. Sean Fleming was interviewed on the Clare Byrne show this morning & he doubled down on there being no cap on the number of asylum seekers Ireland will try & fail to accommodate . Expect the tally to hit 100 K by easter ! By contrast , the UK has per capita taken 6 times fewer ; same goes for France & Norway . Ireland is joint top of the old EU 15 chart ( with Germany ) .
    Expect libraries to become the next refuge centres # Fleeing persecution in Cherbourg , Fishguard & Newry
