I found this discussion with John Waters very interesting. It discusses the upcoming Irish election and the idea that secularist government naturally brings in corruption and the recent strong turn to populism is partly the inevitable return back to the ‘love of God’.
 
I know less than nothing about Irish politics. I do know, however, that when politics and religion mix, it is always religion that is subverted to the wants of politics, not politics that is subverted to the needs of religion.

Religion and politics don’t mix. Politics necessarily converts religion.
