I never give money to romas or travelers but last week i was getting a bus in College green Dublin and a young Dublin woman i never seen before asked me if i had any spare change i had a big win on the horses the day before i put 20 euro in her hand and tears rolled from her eyes havent seen her before or since so hope she is ok in this freezing weather enjoyed the video
@@AnthonyMcRedmond-Vg2ry Ah thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I worked in homeless services for a long time and I think you get an eye for the real poverty stricken. I bet you got a lovely feeling when you saw the effect it had on her, regardless of what she needed it for.
When I was in India for 3 month's I noticed old destitute people begging in the streets after the Brits left Indian and Pakistan, Bangladesh gone down the toilet pan.
Yes you certainly see a lot of that alright. I think there many different views on whether India is better off now or before but I don’t believe there wasn’t begging during British rule. Begging in India is seen as legitimate way of earning a living if you have no other means to survive.
1) you've never been to India before the British left so you have no idea what it was like. 2) when the British stayed they looted the country and when they left they took whatever they could and unlike Ireland there wan't an "EU" to help put it's economy back together. There seems to be begging in Ireland too so should I say Ireland has gone down the toilet pan after the British left? and let's not forget the junkies. Remember, India donated 40000 Pounds from the poorest soldiers to the rich merchants to the Irish during the famine the British caused while the British owned India. The least you can do is show a little respect.
@bogtrotterErin When I was in India I witnessed different types of beggars like leprosy disabled elderly eunuchs kid's alot of these unfortunate people would be outside holy temples what I see in the Western countries is mostly drug addicts and occasionally professional beggars like European gypsy's
With the number of immigrant arriving in Ireland, do you think they are making life harder for the vulnerable members of the Irish population? What is your experience with foreign beggar gangs setting up in Ireland? Are these topics we are even allowed to talk about, or is it something verboten?
Thanks for the comment. Yes it’s totally making it difficult for our homegrown vulnerable population and they tell me all the time. They have the same dilemma most of us have. A need to see our own cared for yet at the same time empathy for those genuine refugees from war torn countries etc. My next video is about just that and I hope you tag along. I’ve no experience with foreign beggar gangs other than what my Romanian friend has told me about his fellow countrymen, and that’s quite a disgrace. The areas I have worked in are with the homeless and with drug addiction.
The thing is that if you give to a charity, a lot of that money is going to employees and god knows where else other than the people effected, but often it’s hard to give enough money to people on the street with addiction/mental illness to make a big difference in their lives
This is very true. A lot of people don’t understand that charities are a business. It something used to bother me quite a bit in various charities I worked (and was paid) in. You never know how much of your money is going where it should. Charities do have to pay money for skilled workers though otherwise they’d have none, and not everyone can fill the roles, nor do the jobs that some roles require. Also, you can’t buy empathy and compassion in an employee but someone who has sought out and studied a in a specific related field most likely, though not necessarily, will have those people skills. Thanks for this comment.
I chase immigrants begging away from outside post offices they get same money as me actually more, free housing health care dentistry the works. I give to Irish beggers. When there’s a double week they flood our small Irish village and take money from old. This practice must stop.🇮🇪
I always give to people I see begging in the street I don't give the money I always ask them what they would like to eat and drink and I go and get it for them they are somebody son or daughter some people don't get many opportunities in this life I treat people the way I would like to be treated myself but for the Grace of god I go Ann Murphy Ireland
Plenty £ billionaire £millionaires of Indian descent , probably more than any other nation. India also has a space program that most countries could not afford , they could be the most powerful country in the world if they wanted.
There’s massive levels of inequality in India. They may well soon be the most powerful country at some stage. Indians are the most successful immigrants in the world.
It's not easy being on the streets the thing is your not thair by choice your there because of lots of different reasons people say don't give them money they will only drink r drugs it if your hope was at a low what would you do too help pass the time r keep warm on the street live out thair for a week with nothing see how you go but remember you get to go home they dont
Thanks for your comment and if you subbed. Yes I agree. The harshness of living on the streets would lead all but few to substances in my experience. Life is tough for these guys. No doubt about it. There may be new drug reforms soon that will ease that pressure a bit. I’m in contact with the street dwellers a lot and have been for many years and the harsh reality is that anyone can end up there and it can happen quite quickly. A lot of people seem to think it’s a lifestyle choice but that’s very rare indeed. Also even if offered a hostel, these can be worse than the streets for some as there is a lot of drugs, theft and violence in some of them. I’ve known guys who had got off drugs only to have guys sit on their hostel bed every night smoking gear until these guys just gave in to the temptations. Also things happen like a guy on Henry st getting his tent set on fire. I’m posting about that this week. Life on the streets, especially the last few weeks, is brutal and unforgiving.
Thanks for your comment. One thing I do know is that people aren’t begging for food. There’s a lot of food available for people in Dublin. Money for hostels is a thing, and if you’re unfortunate to find yourself on the streets it can be a tough position to get out of at times.
The management and CEO get very well rewarded. Those they manage get a pittance or work totally voluntarily. Interns get a minimal wage. Volunteers get nothing. Occasionally CE schemes. Addiction Counsellors and psychotherapists building up their hours to be accredited get nothing. I’ve worked in all the above. As I’ve said on other posts, charities are businesses at the end of the day. People do make a lot of profit from poverty, addiction and mental health issues.
I think we do need these charities but there’s only so much work people will do for free before a salary would be needed or else they’ll move on. I’ve literally done thousands of voluntary or training hours but a time comes people, whether it’s in a charity or not, will need to be paid. If you continue to work for free you will always work for free.
Thanks for your comment. That can be difficult at times. I tend to give packets of peanuts and dog food. I’ve worked with the homeless for years and being on the streets can be a difficult position to get out of. Large Roma women around Trinity though? Not a chance.

Feel free to comment and share. I’d appreciate your thoughts. A sub would also be appreciated.
Yes exactly they certainly are and they don't have to work either to benefit it's been handed over without any difficulty to the whole world
Thanks for your comment. They certainly are what?
ireland needs to help its people first and formost
put them in houses not the migrants
then there you go
Thanks for the comment. I think a lot of people would agree with you on that. The topic of the next video if you’re interested.
@@bogtrotterErin hey stay safe out there and yes i would
👏
never give money to strangers, beggars or otherwise.
I hear you. Sometimes it’s very difficult not to. That’s why I give the guys on the streets peanuts and a tin of food for their dog.

Well said mate, as if somehow not giving them money is going to help them off drugs or whatever. This nonsense annoys me to no end.
It would be great to hear you chat w/ Chris Thrall........any interest ???
Yeah that would be interesting all right friend
