The race to the bottom is appalling. I’m not giving a single vote or preference in the next election to any party that doesn’t speak out strongly against this.

It's all just so frustrating and predictable, isn't it? For years people have been warning of the far right rising in Ireland and we've been laughed at and dismissed by the media and the government. In turn, the govt. have not acted, have treated right wing agitators with kid gloves.
