Description
For the first time at a general election in Ireland - one of the few EU members without any large established far-right party - immigration has become a frontline issue. Malachy Steenson, 61, is part of an emerging group of ultra-nationalist politicians who performed well at local elections this year and now aim to gain a foothold in parliament. "We need to close the borders and stop any more migrants coming in," Steenson told AFP.
