Immigration Control Platform (ICP) ((アイルランド語:An Feachtas um Smacht ar Inimirce)〔) is a political group which seeks to restrict immigration to Ireland. It has not registered as a political party, but has run non-party candidates in elections. ==Positions and organisation== The ICP has not applied for political party status.〔( Focus - General Election 2007 ), Irish Times, 19 May 2007〕 Its website describes it as follows:〔(About Us ), on Immigration Control Platform's website〕 *The aim of the organisation is to address the phenomenon of immigration to Ireland and to lobby Government for a tight immigration policy. *The organisation aims at a very rigorous policy in relation to asylum-seekers, refugees, and a determined response to all illegal immigration. *No one who holds views of racial superiority is welcome in the group. ICP's main activities are writing letters to newspapers, issuing press releases, and maintaining a website. It has also issued leaflets and occasionally held small protests and pickets.〔 It has an Executive Committee elected by the membership at its AGM. It claims to be funded by membership fees and private donations. Its leaders have described it as a single-issue group.〔 Judith Pryor interprets its policy as favouring white immigrants over non-whites. ICP denies being racist.〔 ICP has no policy on Irish illegal immigration to the United States, an issue sometimes linked with immigration to Ireland.〔 ICP candidate Ted Neville had himself spent time illegally in the United States. The ICP's 5 members have always claimed that their policies are not racist nor xenophobic and that they do believe in equality for non-Irish people as long as they stay in their own countries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Immigration Control Platform」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
