Irish Refugee Council founder opposes imposing asylum centres on communities

'I got driven out of the Irish Refugee Council for opposing what they're doing to this nation.'

At a public meeting in Glencrow hall over the planned Direct Provision centre in Moville on Friday, the 16th of November, Brian Flanagan introduced himself as the man who set-up the Irish Refugee Council back in 1992.

But, he told Eugene Banks, the Principal Officer from RIA (the Reception & Integration Agency) and other representatives, he was driven out of the Irish Refugee Council "because of people doing what you guys are doing — Imposing on the Irish nation and imposing on this community."

Flanagan asked whether the local community had any rights what-so-ever other than meeting in a hall like this?

He also made reference to Fine Gael's Ireland 2040 project — a plan to increase the population of Ireland by a million people by 2040 and double the population of every city outside of Dublin. He said last night's meeting was set against that decision.

"We're going to have an extra million people before 2040 and that's not going to come from [the] indigenous population."

Flanagan asked where the million people are going to be coming from and whether the replacement migration project had been decided at a higher level in Brussels.

He concluded "Brussels, we're informed by MEPs, are dead set on destroying community, nationalism and faith. Quite set on that. No question about it."
