"As the Twenty-seventh Amendment of the Constitution of Ireland changed the qualifications for Irish citizenship in 2004, it is unlikely that Ireland will see another major influx black people in the near future."
Really? So, you can say for certain that freedom of movement in the EU, illegal immigration and constant attempts by corporations to open labour markets for the purposes of driving down hiring costs will make that the case? -- Anon.
- Notice the word "unlikely" in the sentence you quote? That means we can't say for certain (and I wasn't). But it seems likely that the 27th Amendment will curtail immigration into Ireland of White, Black and other people to a great degree relative to pre-Amendment 27 Ireland.
