Patrick Costello: As a comparison between the far left and far right, I have been frequently criticised by the far left but that criticism tends to focus on policies or decisions of the Government or votes I have made personally. No one on the far left has ever called my daughter a mongrel, which has been done frequently by people on the far right. To try to conflate the two and say it is like some sort of...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: EU Regulations and Directive on International Protection, Asylum and Migration: Discussion (Resumed) (30 Apr 2024)

Mr. Neil Bruton: Undoubtedly this pact has been influenced by far-right parties across Europe. We are probably the only country in Europe without a far-right party, thankfully.

They are...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (3 Mar 2021)

Paul Murphy: On Saturday, we saw a violent anti-lockdown protest on the streets of Dublin. This protest had the far right at its core, exploiting the widespread frustration people feel about lockdown and the failure of the Government to give people hope in its strategy to eliminate the virus. The far right tried to tap into people's real anxieties and fears. In reality, those groups want to see an end...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (4 Oct 2022)

Sharon Keogan: ...hates women. The year 2016 gave us the worn to death catch-all phrase for when people did not like something and had to slap a label on it to deplatform, discredit, cancel and silence, namely, "far right". Wanting houses for your own citizens - far right. Wanting Irish girls and women to feel safe and have their identity as women protected and respected - far right. Asking for robust...

I have made the argument a number of times in their presence, although they obviously cannot take a policy view on it, that InterTrade Ireland should have far more investment and far more staff and should be allowed to do far more work. We want to see far more of the performance indicators described. We wish Mr. McGowan and Mr. Gough good luck...

Seanad: Transport Policy: Statements. (1 Dec 2005)

Joe McHugh: I think I have missed it, although they might be able to delay it for me. According to the IDA one of the reasons people do not invest in businesses in the north west is because it is too far away and it takes too long. Donegal is not too far away. When there is no traffic one can drive from Letterkenny to Dublin Airport without breaking the speed limit in two hours and ten minutes. That is...

Leaders' Questions (15 Nov 2017)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Arson Attacks: Discussion (5 Mar 2024)

Thomas Pringle: Just briefly, with regard to intelligence-led policing when it comes to policing the far right, what role do informers play in intelligence-led policing? Does the fact that something may come to light as a result of informers influence whether it would be an offence or be pursued? We have seen in this country a number of occasions, particularly in the North, that informers have been...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Climate Change Policy (22 May 2024)

Mick Barry: The European far right rallied in Madrid last Sunday, where they were addressed by Argentina's President Javier Milei who described climate change as a socialist lie. Of course, it does not take far-right leaders to jet in from other continents to come out with this kind of nonsense. The European far right is well capable of putting it forward itself. Alternative für Deutschland is...

Although Mr. Trump and the far right are down, they will not be out...
