ABOUT IRELAND FIRST

At Ireland First, we are dedicated to putting Ireland first and working towards
a better future for our beloved nation. Led by Derek Blighe, a proud Cork native
and a committed family man, our party is driven by a passion for change and a
deep sense of responsibility towards the Irish people.

Derek’s journey in politics began organically; an activist fighting against
dubious, dangerous policies who was petitioned by followers of his Social Media
channel to start and lead a movement. The everyday people who followed Derek saw
a leader – there was a realisation that the existing nationalist parties lacked
the energy and confrontational approach needed to address the pressing issues
facing our country. They saw a need for a people’s party, one that would truly
represent the interests and aspirations of ordinary hard-working Irish men,
women, and parents who are deeply invested in the future of their children.

“Our country has been entrusted to the wrong people for far too long,” Derek
affirms. “Career politicians have consistently let us down, and it is time for
the people, the true backbone of Ireland, to take matters into their own hands.”

Ireland First is a grassroots movement that puts the power back into the hands
of the people. We believe in active participation in the political process and
direct democracy as the pillars of our movement. Through mandatory regular
meetings held in each constituency, we provide a platform for the voices of the
Irish people to be heard. Your comments, questions, and concerns will be brought
to the Dáil on behalf of your local community, ensuring that decisions reflect
the needs of the people they affect. We understand that a one-size-fits-all
approach doesn’t work in a diverse country like Ireland, and we are committed to
representing the interests of each and every constituency, rural and urban.

OUR PRINCIPLES

The Nation Of Ireland Belongs To The Irish People

Padraig Pearse once proclaimed, “Nothing that has happened or can ever happen
can alter the truth of it, Ireland belongs to the Irish.” This sentiment
resonates deeply within Ireland First, as we firmly believe that the island of
Ireland, its seas, skies, and natural resources belong solely to the Irish
people. Our mission is to advocate for increased use of the Irish language,
promote Irish culture, music, and a strong sense of Irish identity through
various channels, including the education system, mainstream and social media.
We also advocate for legislation that requires immigrants to respect our customs
and laws.

In our pursuit of a unified Ireland encompassing all 32 counties, we approach
this goal with respect and encourage a referendum that reflects the will of the
people living both north and south of the border. We would engage in meaningful
political dialogue with the government of Northern Ireland, aiming to foster
understanding and unity. This is a long-term goal, appreciating that communities
in Northern Ireland have deep roots and connections to a foreign Nation. No-one
can be left out and all must be respected.

When it comes to immigration, we firmly believe in the necessity of borders to
safeguard the security and integrity of our nation. We support immigration
policies that benefit our country rather than burden our welfare system,
ensuring that the non-Irish population does not exceed 10%. Unfortunately,
government corruption has allowed this threshold to be surpassed, and we seek to
address this issue.

At Ireland First, we are committed to tackling homelessness. It is our belief
that no Irish citizen should be without a home. Recognising the challenges some
homeless individuals face, such as substance abuse or mental health issues, we
advocate for the provision of safe accommodation by
the state, coupled with the necessary assistance to help them rebuild their
lives.

The housing crisis plaguing our nation can be attributed to irresponsible
immigration policies implemented by successive governments. To address this
crisis, we propose strict immigration controls, deportation of illegal migrants,
and the construction of modular homes specifically designed to help our own
people, the younger generation, first time buyers and those on a minimum wage
get onto the property ladder.

Regarding citizenship, we view it as a privilege rather than an entitlement. We
firmly believe that exceptional individuals who have genuinely contributed to
our country and have not engaged in fraudulent applications should be granted
citizenship. However, in cases of fraud or misconduct, citizenship should be
refused or revoked, based on individual circumstances.

At Ireland First, we stand unwavering in our commitment to preserving Irish
identity, protecting national interests, and addressing critical issues facing
our nation.

Irish Independence

At Ireland First, our primary objective is to ensure that Ireland operates as a
sovereign and self-sustaining nation, free from the influence of unelected
bureaucrats and external organisations. While we believe that Ireland should
leave the EU, also a long-term goal, this decision will not be
made in isolation. We are committed to putting it to a referendum, to guide our
path forward.

The decision to leave the EU will ultimately be determined through a future
referendum. It is essential to note that Ireland’s stance on neutrality ensures
that we remain net neutral, unlike the costly “divorce” experienced by the UK
due to their lack of net neutrality.

To achieve this vision, we have developed a detailed and comprehensive set of
policies. These policies address crucial areas that impact our nation’s
independence and well-being.

Addressing the energy crisis is of paramount importance to us. We advocate for
the revival of power stations and the utilisation of turf as a valuable energy
source. We are open to exploring the feasibility of nuclear power, recognising
its potential to fuel Ireland’s energy needs. Additionally, we assert the need
for energy independence, ensuring that decisions about our energy future are
made in the best interest of the Irish people.

In the face of the ‘climate change’ narrative, we are dedicated to combating
destructive climate change policies. We firmly believe in supporting our
farmers, acknowledging their vital role in food production and environmental
stewardship. As EU laws loom ahead, we will ensure that the interests of our
farmers and their livelihoods are protected.

Food security is a pressing concern, and we are resolute in placing our farmers
back at the heart of our food supply. By supporting local agriculture, we can
promote self-sufficiency and safeguard our nation’s food sovereignty.

Neutrality is a core principle we advocate for. Going forward, Ireland First
aims to resume our position within the EU as a trading bloc rather than being
subjected to laws that compromise our economic and cultural interests. We seek
to protect our national autonomy while actively engaging in beneficial trade
relationships.

We Are Pro-Life

At Ireland First, we hold a pro-life stance on a sensitive issue that demands
careful consideration. We recognise that previous referendums did not provide a
comprehensive resolution on this matter. Therefore, we firmly believe that it is
crucial to allow the people’s voice to be heard through a future referendum.

Our commitment to the pro-life cause is reinforced by a set of policies that
will be extensively developed and detailed in the coming months. Central to
these policies is the provision of unbiased information representing both sides
of the abortion debate. We believe that the people should have access to
objective and balanced resources to make informed decisions about this critical
issue.

We firmly advocate for a referendum that allows for a thorough examination of
the subject, including the exploration of potential strict restrictions. While
we do not support abortion, we acknowledge the importance of putting this matter
to a referendum at an appropriate time in the future. It is through this
democratic process that the people can express their views and contribute to
shaping the direction of our nations policies.

Protection Of The Family Unit

At Ireland First, we firmly believe in upholding the fundamental principle that
parents are the primary educators of their children, as outlined in Bunreacht Na
hÉireann. We are dedicated to safeguarding the innocence of children and
ensuring that parents rights in shaping their children’s education are respected
and protected.

To achieve this, we will introduce policies aimed at promoting and financially
supporting the growth of the Irish family unit.

One area of focus is recognising parents as the sole educators of their
children. We advocate for preserving the parent’s pivotal role in imparting
knowledge, values, and beliefs to their children. This does not imply an
anti-trans (TQ+) stance. Rather, it emphasises the importance of respecting
parents’ rights to educate their children on sensitive topics, such as sex
education, according to their own values and beliefs. Furthermore, we believe
that discussions on gender identity or TQ+ topics should not be pushed onto
children in schools.

Constitutional Republic

At Ireland First, our core mission is to promote and protect the invaluable
principles of freedom of expression and civil liberties. We firmly believe in
the right of every individual to freely express their thoughts and opinions
without fear of censorship or persecution.

To uphold these fundamental values, we are committed to strengthening the
constitutional rights of freedom of expression, movement, and association.

Furthermore, we champion the freedom of individuals, emphasising the importance
of personal liberties in our society. We stand against unnecessary lockdowns
that restrict the basic rights and freedoms of our citizens. While we recognise
the need to prioritise public health and safety, we believe that measures should
be proportionate, transparent, and respectful of individual freedoms.

Law Reform

At Ireland First, we are dedicated to addressing the imbalances within our legal
system to ensure fairness and equality for all. We recognise the need to rectify
contradictory laws that often impose disproportionate penalties for minor
offences compared to more serious crimes. Our goal is to rebalance these
discrepancies and promote a just and proportionate approach to law enforcement.

In cases where crimes are committed by foreign-born nationals, we firmly believe
in taking decisive action to protect the well-being and safety of our society.
As part of our policies, we advocate for immediate revocation of citizenship and
mandatory deportation once the sentence has been served.

This ensures that those who violate our laws and compromise the security of our
nation are held accountable for their actions.

Central to our principles is the concept of equality before the law. We firmly
believe that every individual should be treated fairly and impartially,
regardless of their gender, civil status, family status, sexual orientation,
disability, religion, age, race, or membership of the Traveller community.
Our commitment to equality drives us to advocate for policies that eliminate
discrimination and ensure that justice is served without prejudice. Our policies
will serve as a framework to create a fair and just legal system that reflects
the values and aspirations of the Irish people.
