As an Irish man, London ( and the UK on the whole) has always been a more attractive destination for Educated working professionals (I work in technology) for Higher wages, lower taxes across the board and lower cost of living in aeras like Rent. London is the largest destination for Irish expacts and young Educated professionals can pursue their career , earn disposal income, pay tax and actually have something at the end of it all (you couldn't do that in Dublin). I love Dublin with my heart as its where I grew up as a child , but Ireland has a serious problem with housing, cost of living, high taxes and that is pushing are Educated working professionals to seek better lives abroad.
I'm from Dublin. Lived in both. Dublin just can't compete with London's nightlife, job market, entertainment scene, history, culture, sub culture scenes, infrastructure, transport, property market, rent is probably more expensive in Dublin these days. Dublin is a lot safer and the ppl are friendlier. London is 16 times bigger population wise and is an alpha++ ranking. If Dublin just sorted a few things out it could be a lot better.
celtic is pronounced with a hard c , with the exception of sports teams like glasgow celtic .Hurling is also played in croke park and the ball is thrown in to start the game not kicked off .Rugby and soccer national teams play in the AVIVA.Also When looking for cheaper accomodation ,the surounding counties of meath kildare and wicklow should be looked at and further afield louth and laois all less than 1 and half from dublin.
Im a Dub living in London. While I agree with some comments like the Irish are more friendly ( for sure) the cost of living and housing market in Dublin is absolutely dire not as bad in London(although not great there either at the mo) . My heart goes out to Dubs trying to get by . In some ways they are like two different cities as they are very different in size. I love Dublin as its my roots , friendly and compact and Londons so vibrant and exciting. Always something new to do.
Love Ireland, Dublin city still carrying its soul. Not as London, too many castles that I have seen in movies now I get bored, so many modern buildings and skyscrapers in London , Financial district destroys the beauty of London that is so sad. Big love to both Ireland & England from Vietnam. But I do love to live in Ireland more than in England. Dont know why, just the feeling of love. Thats all .
Eew. Dublin is the worst city to live in Europe. Ireland is the worst country to live in Europe. Boring and nothing to do. People don't know how to do anything.
Dublin visually can look good but Dublin itself resembles a 3rd world country. And the government want to sign off a contract that will bring in 1.4 million Africans in the next 5 to 10 years which will violently decrease the quality of life in Dublin and Ireland
And where did you hear about this "contract"? Was it on some right wing conspiracy theorist website by any chance? You Brits will believe any auld tosh.

Having lived in both,choose Dublin - purely because the people have souls
Fucking nonsense
Did you know that Ireland is the richest country on the planet? WHY? Because every year its capital is always Dublin!
I get it that’s actually funny 😅😂😂
What do you mean?
I don’t get it.

75€ for groceries per week😂😂. I manage in 25-30€
😂 This guy is a clown!… Comparing London with Dublin is like comparing New York City with Cleveland or Pittsburgh… There is no comparison!
I’m from Dublin and lived in London. Can safely say that London wins hands down

An act of treason.
