Anti-immigration activism In February 2024, it was reported that a social media channel, associated with Quirke's Damo and Ivor show, had been used to "broadcast far-right rhetoric". Quirke did not comment on it and, while aware of the claims, RTÉ also did not comment on the reports.

In September 2024, Quirke made a number of comments on social media about RTÉ, stating that "RTE is nothing but a daily propaganda machine for a corrupt government that is trying to enforce globalism".

Quirke distributed thousands of Irish tricolour flags ahead of a 26 April 2025 far-right anti-immigration march in Dublin, which was reportedly attended by over 10,000 people.
