Only half of Irish people support more Muslims coming to Ireland

Salome Mbugua, Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission member, said the new report "shines a light into understanding the frequently subtle, covert or coded forms of prejudice and discrimination, which people in Ireland can face."

Only 53% of people support more Muslims coming to Ireland, with people making no effort to conceal their attitude about this, a new study has found.

The same research also revealed people in Ireland are more likely to be racist when they can conceal their identity.
