Ireland was long considered a particularly hospitable immigration country.???? Those days seem to be over. Citizens from all parts of Ireland protested against migration in their thousands. Especially in small communities. The Irish economy is growing faster than most others in Europe. ???? Scientist Barry Cannon from Maynooth University explains: "The elite benefits from immigration. The boom is not reaching the working-class districts and the countryside. Investments would have to be made there so that there is no shortage, which the right-wing likes to refer to." Prosperity is distributed unfairly. Instead of a boom, the Irish are mainly feeling rising prices. ???? And some blame this on people who were not born in Ireland. ???? According to surveys, a majority has recently come out in favor of less immigration into the country. But our correspondent Sven Lohmann has found Irish hospitality in some corners and it has not completely disappeared. Running groups are currently forming all over the island. This nationwide campaign is intended as a countermovement. ????
