DISMANTLING NEUTRALITY: Government move to scrap triple lock

written by Dominic Carroll July 2, 2024 in REBEL

Dominic Carroll from The Irish Neutrality League explains why the purpose of jettisoning the Triple Lock would be to dismantle Irish neutrality.

But if it succeeds in scrapping the Triple Lock, the government intends to join EU military missions even if they lack United Nations authorisation.
