I wrote this a while ago. It's also written from an Irish point of view but the issues, I think, are fairly international.
I'd like to tell you a story.
In case you hadn't noticed, the country is in an awful mess. We've lost all our money by putting our finances in the hands of idiots.
I'd like to warn you now that this story may seem like I'm anti-immigration or I have some sort of 'Keep Ireland for the Irish' mentality, If you still feel like that at the end of the story---then you're either an idiot or you're part of the problem.
