Could people please stop blocking the roads people are trying to get to work, trying to go home and just trying to get on with their daily lives.

Could anyone involved please explain why you are doing this. This sort of disruption doesn’t do anything but block up the roads for everyone. Punishing ordinary people because of your disagreements with the government isn’t an acceptable form of protest.

I mean with all respect, could someone involved/supporting these protests please explain how this helps?

First of all, I support the genuine protest from the people of Ireland. There were a lot who are sincerely worried about the inflation and how it affect their businesses.

At the same time, many, including the organisers, were right wing (Independent Ireland) and far right groups like “random Irish town” says no, Ken O Flynn, Elaine Mulally, Clan Eireann, We are Cork, and many facebook groups like “Ireland rising from Ashes”.

Im now kinda worried if this is a larger plot of American Influence on Ireland. Clan Eireann has more branches in US than Ireland (yah I follow them on Facebook). What I felt about today was a genuine protest was highjacked by the far right who needs to shut the country down for anything and everything.

Any thoughts peeps?
