Services for those Seeking Protection in Ireland: Statements (30 Jan 2024)

Carol Nolan: I represent people on the Tipperary-Offaly border who work in the town of Roscrea. They are decent people who pay their taxes. The way they were treated and demonised in the national media was shameful. Not one bad person was up there that day. Everything was handled wrong. It was done to create the image that the people and the community were wrong and I condemn that. What was done to...
