One wrong move by government here, and you will see, at the very least, 250k Irish people descend on the capital in a blink.
They must step down, there is no other way.
I cannot see another way.
We have already heard the warning of using the army against its own people.
We have heard the threat that they will come for the protestors after the protest ends.
We have then seen the attempted character assassinations on the protest leaders.
None of this has worked an iota as every single person in this country, outside of the political paywall and even within, is wide awake to it.
These threats, as well as being pitiful, are now futile.
Where else do they think they are going here?
Government, you have no more moves.
You’re going nowhere but out I am afraid.
It is check mate. The gig is up.
I don’t condone it, I don’t call for it, just calling it as I see it.

Blocking roadways is not peaceful protest. People need to get to places and often emergencies are involved. It would not bother me in the least if those protestors got run over and I do not care if they are liberal or conservative.

Get out of the road, assholes! Whether you're BLM/Antifa here, Canadian truckers, French farmers, pissed off Irishmen......I don't care. Get your asses out of the road.

I agree about blocking roads but in their case they gave up guns and vehicles are their only weapon left.

This is looking somewhat positive for Ireland.
Their current leaders do not serve them.

Is the protest about supply or price? Assuming price , unless there are price controls limiting supply and causing shortages, a-la USA in the late 70’s.

Nah, you — nor anyone else — has a right to impede another person's travel. I don't give a shite how much you believe in your cause, inconveniencing others who need to live their lives is a dick move.
Stay out of the road, assholes.

Yeah the people of ireland dont give a shite about this idiotic fallacy.
When the government intentionally turns a blind eye to rapidly increasing gang rapes, violent assaults, and islamization of Ireland (and the UK as a whole) almost entirely perpetrated by the muslims they're, for god knows why, helping flood the country - Its just insulting when those same government officials claim to be soo upset about cars blocking the roadway.
In fact, Ireland and Europe as a whole is past due for some non-peaceful, violent pushback

I think it was said that evrey liter of gas sold, 50 to 60% goes to the Irish govt.
2.27 for a liter of gas...or about $8.50 a gallon
