2023-11-26 |
[NYPOST] Conor McGregor is not happy with the direction of his native Ireland and has hinted at a run for office or other action if the situation does not improve. On Thursday, there were A male suspect in his 50s was arrested; while his identity has not been disclosed, unconfirmed rumors spread online that he was an Algerian immigrant, which stoked tension among the protestors, according to the New York Times ...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... McGregor, the former UFC champion, wrote on X that he does not "condone" the riots in Dublin, but expressed dissatisfaction with the country’s leadership and effectively issued an open challenge to alter the direction. "I do not condone last nights riots [sic]. I do not condone any attacks on our first responders in their line of duty. I do not condone looting and the damaging of shops. Last nights scenes achieved nothing toward fixing the issues we face," McGregor wrote. "I do understand frustrations however, and I do understand a move must be made to ensure the change we need is ushered in. And fast! I am in the process of arranging. Believe me I am way more tactical and I have backing. There will be change in Ireland, mark my words. The change needed. In the last month, innocent children stabbed leaving school. Ashling Murphy murdered. Two Sligo men decapitated. This is NOT Ireland’s future! If they do not act soon with their plan of action to ensure Ireland’s safety, I will." McGregor pushed back on Drew Garda, the Irish police commissioner, who blamed the protests in Dublin on a "hooligan faction driven by far right ideology". "Innocent children ruthlessly stabbed by a mentally deranged non-national in Dublin, Ireland today. Our chief of police had this to say on the riots in the aftermath. Drew, not good enough," McGregor wrote. "There is grave danger among us in Ireland that should never be here in the first place, and there has been zero action done to support the public in any way, shape or form with this frightening fact. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Make change or make way."
