I didn't know anything about Jim Gavin's politics, so despite his endorsement coming from Fianna Fáil, I was prepared to hear him out.

Now I have. And he's trotting out the "legitimate concerns about immigration" shite. So he can basically fuck right off.

Why can't Michael D. live / stay forever?

Just *once* I'd like to hear a political figure say "people's concerns about immigration are NOT legitimate. They are based on misinformation (at best) and racism (at worst). People need to educate themselves about the facts surrounding immigration and they need to stop being fucking bigots".
