38% of Europeans no longer eat three meals a day

" More than half of Europeans say their budget has tightened over the past three years, according to a recent study.

Rising prices have pushed almost one-third of Europeans into a "precarious" financial situation, a recent survey has found.

The second European Barometer on Poverty and Precariousness examined Europeans' ability to make purchases and found that it has declined over the past three years, forcing a majority of them skip meals and resort to making difficult financial choices.

Of the 10,000 surveyed by Ipsos for French Secours Populaire, 29% said their financial situation was "precarious" and any unexpected expense would make their balance tip."

The Rage Behind the Dublin Riots

november 26 2023

According to all the charts and graphs, things have never been better in Ireland. Yet to anyone paying attention to the real world, the recent riots in Dublin were predictable and inevitable, after years in which the ruling class flung the gates open to limitless migration, even as it told the Irish people to make do with pinched public benefits. The only curious thing is that it took this long.

The immediate cause was a knife attack on Thursday targeting a woman and three children outside a school. The alleged perpetrator is an Algerian-born naturalized immigrant (one of the children, a 5-year-old girl, has migrant parents). But this wasn’t the first violent incident to capture the public’s attention. A few days before that, a Slovak Romani immigrant was sentenced for the murder of a young woman, Ashling Murphy. She had been walking home from work by a canal when she was stabbed eleven times in the neck. It was reported that the assailant had been living on disability benefits in a publicly funded council home. Last year, an Iraqi immigrant murdered two Irish gay men, decapitating one of them."

This is just the beginning of Ireland’s riots
The Government still isn't listening to voters' concerns

"Dublin has stealthily become a tinderbox on issues of immigration. When news began to filter through on Thursday that a five-year-old girl (now in a stable but critical condition) had been stabbed, allegedly by a man originally from Algeria, the whole city braced. Many saw images of young men in the area pushing back against police and hoped that was as bad as the reaction would get.

Instead, the severity of the riots accelerated hourly, as pictures of burning buses and trams flooded social media alongside 28 Days Later-style footage of a lawless city centre. Riot police were deployed and some businesses were looted; public transport in the city was shut down, much of it still suspended the next morning. Garda Commissioner Drew Harris described the rioters as “a hooligan faction driven by far-Right ideology”.

There was some sense that this was coming. Earlier this month Jozef Puska was sentenced for the murder of Aishling Murphy, an event which rocked Ireland in much the same way that the murder of Sarah Everard did the UK. In court her bereaved boyfriend read a statement which explicitly noted that Puska had “come to this country, [to] be fully supported in terms of social housing, social welfare, and free medical care for over 10 years [but could] never hold down a legitimate job and never once contributed to society in any way, shape, or form”."
