Irish official says immigrants made us better-looking.

[oh-nahhh]

A veteran Fine Gael TD has said immigration has been good for Ireland as the country needed to “expand our gene pool” . Olivia Mitchell claimed immigration in the Celtic Tiger years has already resulted in physical improvements.


Contacted by The Irish Times about her comments , Ms Mitchell said she believed that the “mobilty of races” had had a positive impact on Ireland.
“I think as an island country cut off from the rest of Europe, it’s a good thing that we have a certain amount of immigration. Mobility of races is a good thing,” she said.
“You can even see the better-looking and taller children now as a result of the Celtic Tiger years. I think it’s a good thing to keep our IQs up there; it’s not just about appearance.”

:picard1:
It's sounds like a silly joke.

Wtf, I was very envious of Ireland because they were a very homogenous country.
Don't they see the problem eveywhhere in Europe when non white people immigrate.
Are they stupid or just diabolic like most European elites ??

[Graus]

Thats some real Celtic pride right there...

[Graham]

The Irish like to call Dublin West Brits. Their politicians would be the equivalent to our London ones. So it would be big up both Capitalism greed and migration benefits to it.

The Celtic cringe.

Bullshite!

Its very interesting how comments like this reveal the perversity of such a mentality. The stance is taken from a position of the Irish being something less or slightly inadequate, only made better by immigrants. In other words the comments are debasing Ireland. 'We are lesser people who need immigration to make us adequate'. Any Irishman who agrees with it is insulting his own country.

[Vasconcelos]

The Irish are a good looking bunch, they don't need foreigners to make them look better.

[Leto]

Blacks and towelheads will make Ireland look more attractive.

[Fear Fiain]

it's settled. I'll have to migrate there and expand their gene pool with my scandinavian and german admixture before a kenyan does.
wonder how many irish girls i could get pregnant on one vacation...

[Grace O'Malley]

It's just PC blather. Anyway Irish are quite condescending about themselves, they are quite down to earth. Anyway the comment is just made in support of immigration. I'm sure some of those Polish-Irish mixes would be quite attractive. :)

This bitch obviously knows NOTHING about genetics, she should just stop.

Puff to getting baked as fuck on Christmas

No shit it makes them better looking.Irish see sun once every 5 years,their skins are imperfected to the max and look like crap.

They could use some vitamin D and melanin genes to look less like zombies.

Indeed. (1) Her statement sounds like a strange and inverted form of scientific racism. (2) Like you implied, most of the immigration to Ireland is from the UK and Eastern Europe. There are growing Nigerian and Chinese populations, but their numbers are pretty small still.

OMG:picard2:

It's just an indirect consequence of their climate and sun exposition.
Any skin type IV or more would have issues with this environnment.

With this dangerous assumption, we could say Europe is too white and are no good spinters so let's import black people ; Europeans are not fanatic enought let import some muslims scums .
But this is happening ...

Its not Black people the Irish need melanin genes from,its the sun.

With slow and steady exposure every pastehead can develop a normal skin tone,if not,there is medication to fix the condition that the body can't fix itself.

It looks better than nasty ass shit skin.

This type of sick talk sounds very strange to me, who says stuff like this? this isn't even PC, and it's a certain type of speech you can only find in northern Europe.

It's just stupid and offensive to his own people, and downright nasty, you can easily tell he has some weird intentions, and wants to promote race-mixing, and anti-Irish sentiment amongst Irish themselves.

There are growing Nigerian and Chinese populations, but their numbers are pretty small still.Well, she talks about “mobilty of races” so I don't think she means UK immigrants but refers to non-Europeans since the UK and Irish peoples are not of different "races".

I thought the Irish were already "Afro-Iberian"?:confused:

:rolleyes:

[Ó Ciardubhain]

Nothing like an injection of some inbred stone age savages to spruce up the gene pool.

[Svipdag]

By comparison ?

[Bobby Martnen]

What a dummy.
