Moth News Live returns with a brand new format! Host Keith Walsh, joined by Al and Oscar, leads a high-stakes investigation into three stories the establishment doesn’t want discussed.
This week, we are asking who is financially benefiting from Ireland’s ongoing crises. Keith begins by dissecting Simon Harris’s suggestion that immigration is the core housing problem, arguing instead that the focus should be on the financial beneficiaries who profit from the crisis’s continuation. We examine a sourced snapshot of private companies currently operating IPAS centers, including Barlow Properties, Cromey Ltd., Aramark, and Mosney Unlimited Company, and ask the central question: “Who’s lobbying hardest to keep it this way?”.
Next, Oscar brings alarming data from Dublin and Wicklow adolescent addiction programs. We discuss the finding that up to a quarter of teenagers seeking treatment have ADHD, which is a recognized risk factor for addiction. We explore the prevalence of cannabis (70%) and the regulatory failure surrounding the surge of the semi-synthetic cannabinoid HHC (20%).
Finally, Al investigates the turbulent world of startup investment. We highlight the success of the Boole Angel Investment Syndicate, which has invested €15 million, but contrast this with serious allegations stemming from the collapse of food-tech startup Senoptica. We examine claims that investor actions (by Boole Nominees Ltd.) were an “unreasonable and inconsistent” move that “created a funding crisis” designed to be exploited.
