Patrick Belton (original) (raw)

dbo:abstract

Patrick Belton (7 November 1884 – 30 January 1945) was an Irish nationalist, politician, farmer, and businessman. Closely associated with Michael Collins, he was active in the 1916 Easter Rising and in the Republican movement in the years that followed. Belton later provided a strong Catholic voice in an Irish nationalist context throughout his career. He was strongly anti-communist and he was a founder and leader of the Irish Christian Front. Supportive of Francisco Franco, Belton however opposed Eoin O'Duffy taking an Irish Brigade to Spain, feeling that they would be needed in Ireland to counter domestic "political ills". (en)

Communism can only be kept out of this country by clearing the breeding grounds of Communism, and those breeding grounds are poverty, bad conditions and propagandists. I suggest that Jews have been the propagandists of Communism the world over, and we should not let them into sheltered trades and positions in this country to carry on their propaganda. (en)
We hear the boasting coming from the Government Benches, we heard it today, of the progress of industrialisation. It is time that we in this country came down to tin-tacks and got some little moral courage. It is time for us to pull the wool off our eyes and tell this House and tell the country what industrialisation in this country really means. It means that we are handing this country over to a gang of international Jews. (en)
When our organisation's work is complete we will make Ireland a very hot spot for any communist to live in … if it is necessary to be a fascist to defend Christianity then I am a fascist and so are my colleagues. (en)
