Our children must not and will not be allowed to experience the injustice of unfairness in the unholy abnormality that hold us asylum seekers inferior in society. We must move from grass to grace and become useful to ourselves, to our children and family. to the Irish community and society and receive the necessary educational skills and growth necessary to raise this great nation to greater heights in life. We and our children must not live and feed like sheep and goats in the fields, knowing that even these animals are useful to society in economic growth and development. We must be allowed to live like normal human beings in society among other settlers and pay our rents to landlords and integrate fully with our brothers and sisters in the Irish society. We shall not waste away in vain and become elements of mental disorder and aggravated stress disorder. We must be partners in progress. Children and babies must have living space and places to play with their friends and toys. Children must not be allowed to see certain things in a single room with their parents, brothers and sisters their eyes were never meant to see. The Direct Provision system is a system that places much premium on profit before humanity and is of immense benefits to the sponsors and owners of this business of human trafficking. We shall not be trafficked into the Direct Provision System through situations and circumstances in life beyond human understanding and human comprehension. This system must come to an end. Victims of this system must be compensated by being granted Leave to Remain, and allowed to live and eat like normal human beings, go to school and acquire the relevant skills and education necessary for national growth and development. We must be encouraged to work or own our own business and create a rainbow nation which encourages tourism through music, art, theatre, industry and enterprise. We must be encouraged to become fire- fighters, pilots, engineers, medical doctor and practitioners, scientists and technologists, nurses and midwives, soldiers and sailors by a unique reformation of the immigration process by the justice department. Ireland must follow the virtues of Nelson Mandela and Barrack Obama in what humanity can do for humanity. Finally, how the outcome of the working group recommendations in the reform of the immigration process and Direct Provision system will be, and what the present justice minister will act for the common good of society will be, will be for history and posterity to vindicate the just. We must not forget that we are humans whose lives do not exist forever. We must remember that in what we do in life, and in what opportunity God has given us in life, it is meant for the good of humanity. One does not fix appointments with fate.
