Local farmer and former Detective Sergeant Val Martin has been nominated as Irish Freedom Party General Election candidate for the Cavan - Monaghan constituency.
Mr Martin is a farmer in Kingscourt, Co Cavan, and former Garda Detective Sergeant based in County Monaghan and Cavan Town.
He says he'll demand that Irish families are put first in the social housing list and will demand an end to discrimination against Irish people in planning laws. He believes "in order to give Irish people a chance to acquire a family home in the current housing market, that immigration and thus housing demand must be strictly controlled.
The Co Cavan farmer says we need to put the needs of Irish people in our own country first as it's not our duty to house the whole world. Well known in many livestock marts, Val has opposed the crazy Green Party agenda, especially opposed to the carbon tax, which he holds is extortionate, unnecessary, and unjust.
He believes in "a clean and green Ireland in which people of rural Ireland can make a living and have a future in a safe and secure country." He opposes the country being covered in unsightly wind turbines or pylons. Val Martin said he'd undertake to fight for the freedom and prosperity of the people of the Cavan - Monaghan area
