It's already happening. OK not so far as being kicked out, but definitely being turned down jobs in favour of the 'locals', leaving them to work at lower skilled jobs.As to Irish Jobs for Irish People, well if we hold that view then we should get ready for the deluge of Irish people in UK/US/France/Germany/Australia etc getting kicked out in favour of the indigenous population. Will be great having all these unemployed people suddenly coming home and claiming the dole.
The way it should be !The person most suited for the position got the job, not necessarily the Irish.
But what about if there's a 'deat heat' between Irish/foreign candidates ?

Latrade:
I'm not saying it's right, but it's understandable...and certainly not racist imo. Discriminatory, perhaps, in favour of the 'Irish' (by which I mean residents of Ireland, living here legally).
Would I accept an influx of returning emigrants ? I don't think that's ever likely to happen as those who emigrate will find another job (maybe at a lower position or in a different location) before giving up the fight and returning home to Ireland, where things aren't great anyway, and so there's no guarantee of them being able to secure the high-level position they may think they deserve.
AFAIK, there is already an EU law/directive declaring that staff must be found from within the EU, and only non-EU people can be hired if it has been demonstrated that a suitable candidate could not be found in the EU. A company I worked for had a huge amount of non-EU staff and when this directive came into effect, any of those staff who left had to be replaced by someone from within the EU to keep the percentages acceptable. I forget the figures but it may have been 40-50% of staff had to be EU citizens.
This, in my view, amounts to the same thing, albeit a broader version, and it's 'official'.
Yes, it's possible, I grant you. I don't agree with a view of 'give the job to the local, regardless of their talent' either FWIW,And again, you're right, it is unlikely to happen that we will get an influx, but is this not a possible consequence of you model of "irish jobs for irish people"?
If I was in another country where there were thousands of their own citizens unemployed ? Probably not, TBH. I know people who've been in that situation and weren't bitter about it too.Would we not feel irked if our application for a dream job was turned down purely on the basis of being Irish?
I would like to know how many foreign folk work in the ESRI/EA?

Oh, and by the way, the project had a budget of €50,000!!
