RTE would never show this...thanks dw👍

Ireland's reluctance to invest in its own defense is sad. Expecting the Gardai to battle international drug gangs is preposterous. Criminal gangs need to be fought with military assets, not police.

I left ireland in 2011 to New Zealand due to the economic crisis, back then there was little to nothing cocaine issues in my local town of Drogheda. I returned in 2022 and its madness. Everyone is on the gear.

This is not just a problem limited to Ireland, its accross the globe.

Respect to Daniel……🙌🙏

All my friends were doing coke, thankfully I never wanted to partake, I'm so thankful now. They need to educate the young when they are very young.

Daniel Jones and the other social workers 👏👏

Fair play to Daniel and the social workers 👏

Ireland is only looking at radar lately, so easy for the cartels
-
Old news for people who live in the country. Basically everyone knows about how bad the situation is lmao.
-
Problem is when young people think taking it is normal and everyday use. That gets in their head but like that you want have families and continue normal life.
-
Government doesn't have the will to quell drugs from society. Simple..
-
Fighting the supply side is a failure. Without reducing demand, supply will always be there.
-
0:39 that girl def participates 😂
-
Social exclusion is a huge problem in Ireland, and systematic poverty by austerity crazed policies, by various successive governments. It is far more complex than anyone clueless Middle Class academic can imagine or comprehend. And the Drugs pandemic everywhere is just symptom of this.
-
Any chance Ireland actually tries to rebuild their navy to intercept smugglers?
-
It's always been a big problem in ireland for a very long time. Even in small towns. Nothings being done. Getting worse. Seen it.

Many thanks for the coverage
-
That’s because we don’t have a navy capable of intercepting ships.because the criminals are smart and are using planes and submarines. We do have a very big cocaine problem here. I’m a counsellor and psychotherapist and it’s one of the things I treat a lot when everyone comes to me with addiction. I assumed it would be alcohol but a lot of my clients would be presenting with but it’s not it’s coke usage.

Yay we're mentioned
