Somalis are found in almost every country, just the numbers vary.

Ireland used to have a bad economy until the year ~2000. That's why you don't have many Somalis there. And they never signed the Schengen treaty making it harder for illegals who entered Europe to enter Ireland. It was easier for Somalis to sneak into Sweden, Denmark etc that's why you have many more Somalis in Scandinavia.

Ireland still has a horrible economy. I bump into Irish people every week.

New World Irish emigrated in the 19th century mostly. Not so much these days.

Their GDP per capita is higher than Canada's. Before the 21st century it used to be a lot lower (Sectarian issues, different tax system).

There are no jobs there. They still flock here for jobs. They have taken over the construction and oil and gas industries

Flock? Europeans aren't allowed to enter Canada and work legally like the old days. There's a strict immigration system.

Obviously legally. Any Westerner who can get a job offer here gets a permit right away and then permanent residency and then citizenship in 3 years.

The others who flocked are the England people but they left England for other reasons like bad quality of life. They rival the Chinese and Indian and Filipinos in recent immigration numbers

Why Ireland, of all places?

Because it's the only English speaking country in the eu for the foreseeable future

Yes there's actually a good few somalis in ireland, i've lived here for 12 years but there're just not about. U'll only see them ocassionally

Why would you want to go to Ireland? they are gajo and are known as racists. The people from Ireland flock to Australia and other English speaking countries because of a lack of opportunities in their own country.

Not at all tbh, its an english speaking country with free education. What else could u want? People tend to say they're racist but they really not, its just a stereotype
