Biography
Moore is originally from Kerry and has lived in Cavan for 13 years. In an interview on Northern Sound radio station, he said he believes that Ireland is moving in the wrong direction.
Question time
Why did you decide to run in this election?
To challenge the Irish government for weakening our nation with an influx of immigrants that's completely unsustainable. We already had a housing shortage and now homelessness is at a record high. Young people are living under their parents roof, resigned to the fact that they will never be able to buy their own home.
The gender discussion has gotten out of control. Also, there needs to be leadership here and a halt to this political correctness. I would like to instead focus on mental health issues and pull away from this gender trend. I will also stand by our firemen and women around the country who risk their lives for us and push for a better pay and conditions. I will support carers for elderly and disabled, who have been ignored, by restoring their pay and rest bite hours.
What do you think is the greatest issue the country faces right now?
A) Immigration and housing. Sustained efforts have not been made by successive governments to tackle the issue. Social housing has not been built on a grand scale since the 80s.
B) Healthcare: Our world class doctors and nurses moved abroad due to lack of housing and high cost of living. The young people of Ireland move abroad for a better life.
What would you like your first speaking time in the Dáil to be about if you get elected?
I would address the current reality of our carers for the elderly and disabled in this country. I would also work to restore their pay and rest bite allowance, and hours. The current government parties are responsible for the state of our country. I will do everything in my power to make sure Irish voices are heard.
