Former Trump advisor Stephen K. Bannon told Tucker Carlson he believes the Irish government is one of the worst in Europe at handling the ongoing migrant crisis.
“Ireland’s probably one of the worst if, if not the worst, because the political class has totally sold out,” Bannon said in the interview on X, adding Ireland has received “…125,000 immigrants in the last year.” According to Bannon, the flood of immigrants into Ireland over the past year is comparable to the nine million illegal immigrants who’ve entered the Biden presidency having come in just a single year instead.
The unchecked flow of immigrants from Ukraine, Africa, and the Middle East has put tremendous strain on Irish society. Irish citizens have resorted to blocking roadways in an effort to prevent the government from dropping off immigrants in their communities. Late last week, rioters took to the streets of Dublin after an Algerian immigrant stabbed a five-year-old boy, a five-year-old girl, a six-year-old girl, and a woman in her thirties near a local school.
In his interview with Tucker, Bannon said the unrest seen in Dublin is a “natural blowback” among the Irish working class to the government selling out Irish sovereignty. “The political class is very tied to Brussels… there’s really no true opposition party,” Bannon said, noting Ireland lacks a populist-nationalist party capable of resisting government policies.
The political and social crisis in Ireland isn’t an isolated event according to Bannon. Across Europe, governments are facing increasing backlash for the European Union’s mass importation of immigrants from the third world, replacing native populations. “The Germans and the people in Brussels, the Party of Davos, just doesn’t think the working class European population is very controllable. They think they’re dangerous,” Bannon lamented.
