HERE ARE THE things you need to know as we round off the day in three easy steps.

THINGS WE LEARNED

#ANTI-AUSTERITY Around ten thousand people turned out to protest at austerity measures in Dublin City Centre this afternoon, at an event organised by the Dublin Council of Trade Unions. A number of speakers, including ICTU president Eugene McGlone were heckled at the rally, in what SIPTU president Jack O’Connor called ‘fascist behaviour’.

#CALL FOR RESIGNATION The Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin has called for the resignation of the Health Minister James Reilly, calling the primary care centre debacle a ‘pack of lies’. Former junior health minister Róisín Shortall also hit out at Reilly today, again saying that he was engaging in ‘stroke politics’ when two locations in his constituency were added to the priority list.

#ACTUAL RESIGNATION The editor of the Irish Daily Star Michael O’Kane has resigned after the paper published topless photos of Kate Middleton back in September.

#THAILAND Thousands of protesters in Thailand have called for the prime minister to step down amid accusations of government corruption. Tear gas was fired at demonstrators and 132 people were arrested.

#NEW BISHOP The diocese of Cloyne has a new bishop – Canon William Crean. He has said that he’s committed to bringing healing to the diocese after the revelations of the Cloyne Report. He also said that he’s apprehensive about what lies ahead of him.
