BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Fuel Protest spokesman responds to over 300 Gardai taking O’Connell Street by force around 3 AM and shutting off all street access.

@keira_con They haven’t really

I think the present government has destroyed the relationship between the public and the Garda Síochána for good, Having a late lunch in a resturant and four members of the guards walked in three males and a woman. Suddenly the place went quiet, they were seated, Other customers and staff looking at them. Their order was taken and shortly after the owner or manager went and asked them very politely to leave the premises as they were not welcome, that their presence was upsetting other customers and would they inform their colleagues they are not welcome either, As they walked out the door tail between their legs people clapped and cheered it was surreal.

The protesters should be absolutely ashamed with themselves over this. #FuelProtest #Dublin #Cork #Galway #Limerick #Blockade #Protest #Fuel

@JustRaging01 He still doesn’t get it. The minute he associated with Gavin Pepper, Malachy Steenson and the like the credibility was gone. The dramatics of carrying a coffin to Government Buildings did no favours either.

Organiser Chris Duffy : "Ireland is no longer a country where people have a right to question anything!"

Gardaí moved in on the Dublin Fuel protest overnight. O'Connell Street has been cleared and gardaí are waking up the farmers who slept in their tractors and telling them to move.

"We got absolutely ambushed here last night." Councillor Pepper speaks with Chris Duffy, one of the organisers of the Fuel Protests after a garda operation to remove protestors and their vehicles overnight.

@KillianM2 @aisling_kenahan 😂😂 he had nothing. Couldn’t even get in to the meetings.

@aisling_kenahan But I thought he said he had the country by the balls?

This is awful, Chris Duffy having to defend his stance at five in the morning.

@RealEddieHobbs Fair play to the Guards.

@RichardODonoghu Hahaha the numpties

Again today, 5 loads of fuel are departing Foynes Port destined for stations for front line services & vulnerable people… Very well done to the protesters for the peaceful protests and negotiations 👏

@TheLiberal_ie OOO is on. Fair play to him. To have to switch off. These protests are ridiculous anyway

BREAKING: Rumours circulate Micheal Martin’s daughter is getting married this weekend - during the fuel protests Imagine the Taoiseach (Prime Minister) at a wedding while the entire country is shutdown from the fuel protests. theliberal.ie/breaking-rumou…

One of the leaders of the protest, Christopher Duffy, was standing by as the official groups exited the meeting. He said the protesters have been “put at the kiddies table” by Govt. Asked what it will take to bring protest to an end, he said: “A serious reduction in our costs”

"Our Army is Bigger"-How Government Threats Fuelled a National Uprising As Ireland wakes to the fourth day of fuel protests today, the country finds itself in a moment of collective reflection. What began as a targeted demonstration outside the General Post Office on O’Connell Street has evolved into a nationwide movement that has brought motorways, ports and towns to a standstill. Ground zero remains the iconic stretch of O’Connell Street, where tractors, trucks and vans still form a formidable presence, turning the historic avenue into a symbol of defiance. The M50 continues to experience heavy blockades and gridlock, with similar disruptions rippling along the M7, M8, M11, N6 and other key routes. Access to ports and fuel depots in Whitegate, Foynes and Galway has been severely restricted, leaving forecourts dry in many areas and raising genuine concerns for essential supplies. Many observers note how the government’s initial rhetoric, threats of Defence Forces intervention and dismissals of the protesters as “a small few” , has instead inflamed the situation. Far from quelling the unrest, it has triggered a surge in vehicles, participants and public sympathy across the country. The movement has grown far beyond its original scope, drawing in farmers, hauliers, contractors and ordinary citizens who see this as more than just a dispute over fuel prices. On the ground, there is a palpable sense that the protests represent something deeper. While the sharp rise in petrol and diesel costs, exacerbated by Middle East tensions, provided the spark, the underlying grievances run much wider. Soaring costs of living, punishing electricity bills, persistent inflation and frustration with government spending have left many feeling pushed to the edge. For self-employed workers and rural communities in particular, the latest €250 million tax relief package feels like too little, too late, the final straw that broke the camel’s back. Speaking on RTÉ’s Prime Time on Thursday night, protest organiser James Geoghegan captured the mood when he declared “our army is bigger,” highlighting the movement’s expanding momentum even as some vehicles were withdrawn from O’Connell Bridge and limited kerosene supplies were released. As the protests enter this fourth day, organisers vow to maintain pressure while preparing for talks with government representatives. For many Irish people, this moment has become less about traffic chaos and more about a deeper reckoning with the pressures that have built up over years. Commuters and businesses brace for another day of disruption, while the nation watches to see whether these negotiation talks will give way to meaningful change.
