Seems like these drug peddlars have no respect for the hospitality shown to them by Irish citizens . Caught with drugs in November 2016 and again in May 2017 . Why was this allowed to happen again

THERE HAVE BEEN renewed calls for mandatory warnings on wet wipes, over concerns some brands are labelled as “flushable” despite the damage they can cause to the environment.
The European Commission has listed wipes among the single-use plastics that will come under specific rules – but there is nothing to say that users should be told about the environmental damage they cause.
Irish MEP Deirdre Clune told TheJournal.ie that the rules should go further and that products should warn consumers if they’re bad for the environment.
So we’re wondering: Should products come with a warning if they damage the environment?

@Andrew Byrne: They’re being supplied by Irish people, so let that sink in a bit. You probably drive a taxi.
@Chris Hammond: Whether Andrew Byrne is a Taxi drive or a donkey trainer makes no difference.
Everybody is entitled to make a living but make no mistake we have enough Irish drug dealers and general criminals of our own. If a non EU citizen, whether a Rickshaw driver, a taxi driver or Donkey trainer is caught a who deflects from the seriousness of these crimes and found guilty of selling drugs or any criminal activity they should be immediately deported.
Anybody who deflects from the seriousness of these crimes certainly is not a parent or have any interest in the quality of life where they live.
@AnthonyB: Non EU citizen can be deported and for EU citizens convicted of a crime there is a solution too. Cancel their PPS number. Quite simple.
