makes me sad watching what Galway used to be, if only we could go back to those days 🇮🇪

[@wild6cat]

Go away with your "Ireland Belongs to the Irish" nonsense. The people of Galway were starved from their homes and became refugees abroad, and uncounted thousands of trouble-makers have emigrated illegally abroad. We - of all people - should have both a little more cop-on and kindness to displaced populations. (The state a' ye....)
