In 2022, 40% of asylum seekers arriving at Dublin Airport had managed to ‘lose’ their passport between take off and landing.
The Irish establishment expects Irish people to take this fact at face value and also to believe that this is in no way a security issue.
Equally, we are now to believe that a priest spraying a few planes with Holy Water is a greater security risk than this. By ‘a priest’ of course we are not talking about an individual off the street in clerical garb, we are talking about the actual chaplain who works in the church at Dublin Airport.
After Gript posted an article about the blessing being cancelled due to a boomer humanist requesting similar access, Dublin Airport suggested that a security protocol was the reasons for the change in policy.
Dublin Airport has since said that they are looking for a ‘new way’ to facilitate the blessings.
The majority of comments online were against cancelling the blessings. The recent referendum has shown that the spirit of anti traditional feeling has now dissipated in Ireland. 2018 is long over, companies should catch up.
