Expect to learn about the Irish government's response to UK asylum law changes, how Denmark's migration model is being replicated across Europe, and why Ireland's infrastructure is struggling with population growth beyond 2035 projections. Ken examines the systemic issues in Ireland's asylum system, including concerns about lack of community consultation, strain on local services, and the financial implications of housing asylum seekers while Irish citizens face homelessness. The conversation explores broader themes of government accountability, whistleblower protection, and the challenges of establishing a new political party in Ireland. Ken provides insights into Independent Ireland's political strategy, their approach to opposition, and their ambitions for growth across all levels of government representation. This discussion offers a critical perspective on Ireland's migration policies and highlights the growing disconnect between government rhetoric and community concerns across the country.
