"I'm Ashamed To Be Irish Over How We've Turned Against Ukrainians In Need"

27 October - 47 mins
Podcast Series Opinions Matter with Adrian & Jeremy

Ireland’s attitude to Ukrainians has shifted massively since the early days of the war — and Derek is raging. After news that more Ukrainians are being refused temporary protection, he asks what happened to the “land of a thousand welcomes”… and why the comments online have turned so nasty.

Adrian and Katie go head-to-head on whether “enough is enough”, with rows over taxpayers’ money, hotels and accommodation ending next March, and whether people should be allowed stay only if they work and “pay their own way”.

Live callers pile in — from “send them home” to raw, emotional reminders that the bombing hasn’t stopped.
