Readers may be aware that there was a large gathering organised by anti-immigration campaigners in Cork over the weekend, involving several prominent far-right agitators including former Ireland First leader Derek Blighe and Hermann Kelly of the Irish Freedom Party.

Mr Moore’s post has led to threats being made against the pub and its owners.
