    Plenty of peaceful protesters . People not been listened to by government who continue to line pockets of rich backers after years of selling our resources of and privatising everything. While they ignore irish people . Ireland is in bad way and heading for huge recession cant keep bringing loads people in and spend 30 000 on fences on canals per week. Change government stop voting same buckers in or giving out and not even bothering to vote
