I was wondering if any other people on this site lived in Ireland, if not you can ask me about the country anyway.
Any Somalis living in Ireland?

This youtuber lives in Ireland
I've read there is less than 5000 in the country, mostly in Dublin the capital.
Racism is very rare here, although I remember a few years back it was very prevalent in low income areas but that has changed.
Quite the small community, must be tight knit. Ireland has lots of opportunities and you’re EU nationals too. I know a family that moved from there to England thanks to that.How are Somalis doing over there? Good to hear that their tolerant. I heard you have to baptise your child to enroll in to school there is it true?
The whole baptism thing was only for a few ultra catholic schools and they made it illegal a few years back anyway. Most schools are catholic though and non uniforms school are rare and they are always the worst schools.
The community is very tight nit, we don't have any of that staying with your own qabiil BS it's just irrelevant here.
Good to hear. Somalis do well and unite in small communities. Ermmm if most schools are Catholic, do they have Catholic ethos? This sounds similar to CoE schools in the uk.
Ireland is just as good as england economically, culturally it is much better. Although you are right many Somalis see that the Somali population here is not that high so they go to some majority Somali area in england.
Are you in Ireland?

Nobody is forced to do anything relating to Catholic religion if they are not Catholic. During religion classes me and my muslim friends just do our Homework or read a book. The thing is though most Irish people are non-practising catholics, they don't go to church most of them can't even recite a single bible verse. The only shit part is having to learn the Irish language in school even though it's pretty much dead.
Yes, I live in Dublin.
That’s ultra awesome. Even if it is dying you can help preserve it; it could help you have a colourful cv I mean how many people can say they know Gaelic

Yeah I guess that's true, although the grammar is EXTREMELY hard to learn.
@Somali Nationalist A while ago I watched this documentary about an Irish sport ( I don’t recall the name). The documentary was of a small town with an immigrant population of Asian and West Africans. Seems Ireland has a strict immigration policy, some ppl in the documentary were barred from work for years and lived off money given by the government I think
The sport is called gaelic and its the national sport. When it comes to immigration the Irish government has got a stick up its ass sometimes because there are many west africans here.
No I think there’s more chance they’ll return back to their original host countries where they have more rights as citizens.
Although majority will remain in the uk under settled status.
