according to that article, the white irish population is declining because there is a traditionally high emmigration rate of that demographic away from ireland.  If the people of ireland want ireland to remain full of indigenous people, they should stay.  And start having more babies

Why is this a concern for you?

What a daft question, Corby.  You could ask that about so many of the posts in News.

\\So, where will the extra one million people come from? Clearly through immigration from Africa, Asia and the Middle East. That’s 50,000 a year for the 21 years from 2019 to 2040 – about 1,000 a week.

‘Project Ireland 2040’ also brings up another possibly interesting issue. The Irish population is around 4.8million. Let’s assume that the indigenous population will decline to about 4million by 2040 because of the falling birth rate and a long history of native Irish emigrating to the UK and other English-speaking countries in search of new opportunities. Then, of the 5.8million who (the Irish government predicts) will be living in Ireland by 2040, around 1.8million – almost one in three – will be an immigrant, mostly from Africa, the Middle East and Asia.

 

Ludicrously, ‘Project Ireland 2040’ has nice pictures of rolling Irish countryside and happy white Irish families.

Given the likely make-up of the population, rather different images of the future Ireland might be more suitable.

I haven’t crunched the numbers. But I’m sure someone much smarter than myself can take Ireland’s current rate of immigration, the native Irish birth rates and the birth rates of the immigrant communities and work out the date by which the native Irish will be a minority in their own country.//

 

So the white Irish will be replaced by Africans and Asians.

"What a daft question, Corby." In your opinion...

The future used to be Orange, now it's a somewhat darker shade.

//What a daft question, Corby.//

In my opinion too.

[davebro3]

With declining indigenous populations & increased African and Asian immigration (and populations increasing in those countries) the whole of Western Europe is due for a huge shift in ethnicity & culture in the coming decades. I can't be stopped.

[davebro3]

*it* can't be stopped

[bednobs]

It seems a reasonable question to me. Why does anybody care about the immigration policies of random countries they do not live in.
It's like me asking you if you care about the immigration policies in Suriname

[davebro3]

how do you know Irish people don't use AB?

[bednobs]

i dont.  but khandro doesn't, and as far as i know most users are in the Uk?

[Old_Geezer]

Folk may be concerned because culture will tend to become what the majority demand. No one wants their culture to switch dramatically to something alien to that area.

Do you live in Ireland ?

[bednobs]

no.  I have no hope of changing their immigration policies either

[bednobs]

"Folk may be concerned because culture will tend to become what the majority demand. No one wants their culture to switch dramatically to something alien to that area."

true, but it's not my culture. 

[Khandro]

In which country do you live bednobs?

[fender62]

not sure the nationalists would stand for it, as mr adams once said they haven't gone away, or maybe thye won't care, who knows whats in store in the next 40yrs or more.

[ynnafymmi]

It was the IRA terrorists that Mr Adams said hadnt gone away.Sadly hes right.

[fraser]

it's called the great replacement, if we don't stand up to it now it will be too late.
