McGregor’s Anti-Immigration Remarks Condemned by Irish Leader
During a St. Patrick’s Day White House visit, Conor McGregor criticized Ireland’s government for its immigration policies, claiming the country was losing its identity. Irish Taoiseach Micheál Martin swiftly condemned McGregor’s remarks, stating they misrepresented the Irish people and contradicted the holiday’s spirit of community and fellowship. McGregor, who has previously expressed anti-immigration sentiments and is considering a presidential run, used the platform to raise his concerns to the 40 million Irish Americans. This incident follows previous controversies surrounding McGregor, including legal battles involving allegations of sexual assault and battery.
