Lucky break for D4 residents as Sachs Hotel in Donnybrook is no longer under consideration to accommodate asylum seekers. A local residents’ leaflet campaign had warned that 200 to 300 asylum seekers could be housed in “the most affluent part of the city.” However, the Department of Integration has now announced that after assessment, the property has been deemed inappropriate—though it declined to explain why. Justice Minister Jim O’Callaghan represents the area as a TD for Dublin Bay South. Upon hearing the news, one local resident said: “To be honest with you, that’s like winning the lottery to me. My house would be of absolutely no value as a result of this centre.” 🔗archive.ph 👉🏻join Late Stage Ireland

An Irish student on reddit who is doing a Masters course at UCD's Smurfit School says he now regrets paying so much to move to Dublin and do the course due to the number of Indians in his class. 🔹 He says at least 70% of the other students are Indian and their lack of proficiency in English means group work "is a mess" with some Indians not bothering to show up for presentations, so he ends up doing most of the work. 🔹 He suspects the English entrance exam is inadequate to filter out poor English speakers or that the Indians 'did something else' to pass it. 🔹 Many of the tutors are also Indian with thick accents making them difficult to understand and they often answer questions in Hindi. 🔹 He says he has seen Indians take pride in cheating, using ChatGPT for entire assignments and having no interest in the coursework—"somehow many still pass." 🔹 An Indian in the replies says UCD actively promotes the courses in India and charges €14k for them. 🔗reddit.com Thanks to Rich Clear for highlighting the post on X. 👉🏻join Late Stage Ireland
