@Scollob1 @Toibin1 Hopefully not , surely the public has had enough and will vote accordingly.

@Toibin1 @tipperaryjon And that could mean another general election which in turn would mean, given the lack of sophistication of the Irish electorate and their uphill struggle against a system designed to thwart their wishes (but approved by Brussels), the return of the same pathetic coalition.

The government has decided to pepper spray citizens before speaking to them. This government is fuelling discontent rather than reducing tensions. The opposition should call a motion of no confidence in this government.

The #FuelProtest in Galway Port tonight raising the tricolour high. Just in the last few minutes. 🇮🇪☘️

@MichealLehane Probably pay themselves double time too.

Cabinet meetings on Sundays are rare and almost always happen at a time of crisis, tomorrow is no different as Government moves to sign off on supports for hauliers, farmers and fishing sector. Taoiseach and Tánaiste to meet in the morning and full Cabinet to convene around 4pm.

@jimdundrum FG sit down at least they are doing something unlike ye.

Peadar’s instinctive Sinn Fein anti law & order reflex is never too far from the surface.

@griptmedia No chance as its only Irish flags flying.

NIAMH UÍ BHRIAIN: A challenge to President Connolly as Supreme Commander of the Defence Forces. Ask the Army to stand down from moving against peaceful fuel protests. Although her role is mostly ceremonial, the symbolism of that call would be powerful. gript.ie/president-shou…

@Toibin1 Not a fan of all your policies but fair play for standing with the Farmers. Well done 👏

Aontú has written to the leaders of the other opposition parties calling for a joint motion of no confidence in the government.

@UnityakaAontu @MichealMartinTD He has surely destroyed Fianna Fail as a legitimate party forever after this, nobody Irish can vote for them now in good faith.

He wouldn't meet the protester rep group Went for nuclear option Took 4 days to meet the selected few 5 days in, won't unveil the measures that ppl are entitled to know How many more mis-steps for @MichealMartinTD Sad days.

@gavpepper85 Every member of that government should resign today. They have transformed Ireland into a country where hard-working men are attacked by state enforcers for protesting a cost of living crisis while 3rd world migrants stroll in and get everything handed to them for free.

@BrayBri70 No Palestine flags so not interested. President likewise.

Funny that men of the people, Christy Moore and Glen Hansard haven't been out supporting the fuel protesters.

@Mick_O_Keeffe Nobody will ever vote @fiannafailparty again after this.

🚨🇮🇪 Terrible scenes at the Whitegate oil refinery right now. Farmers and truckers have been penned in like cattle while the Irish army has arrived on scene to remove their vehicles. This is a sad day for Ireland.

🚨BREAKING🚨 Tens of thousands of Irish patriots with tricolours are in Dublin to support the fuel protesters 🇮🇪🇮🇪💪🏻 This is truly amazing to see 🇮🇪 More videos to come - Follow us and share

@Killybegsgirl She did very very well 👏

Wow. Would make me not listen to this station anymore.

@Mick_O_Keeffe They must be never voted back into power again.

🚨🇮🇪 BREAKING! Gardaí have declared a "national exceptional event" and deployed water cannons to deal with protests in Dublin and the Whitegate oil refinery in Cork. The Irish government continues to treat hard-working farmers and truckers like criminals.

@MichealMartinTD Abolish the Carbon tax, stop giving our money to all and sundry abroad, and end the IPAS scam and problem solved I reckon.

It is unconscionable and illogical that amidst a global supply crisis, blockades are pushing Ireland to the precipice of turning away vital oil shipments to international buyers.

The IRISH Government also spent €2.2 Billion housing the imports… But they can’t ease the pressure on its people that work and bring the money and food to the tables and to this country! You are seeing leaders that don’t answer to you, they answer to Globalists!

Government funded media in Ireland, and that's most of it, are having to sing for their supper with their coverage of the #FuelProtest. Even RTE must be quietly chocking on how they are having to cover this. The government can end this in 15 minutes by announcing the cancellation of the carbon taxes and a reduction of VAT on fuels along the lines of what Poland has done. It's that simple. The fact they haven't yet done that tells you how captured they are by special interests.

The government refuses to engage with protesters as they are not part of an organisation or representative body, yet those same TDs will have no problem engaging with these same citizens in the next General Election

🇮🇪🚨 Looks like the government is not meeting with protesters after all. Protests will continue 🚛 🚜 🇮🇪

🚨🇮🇪 Ireland Migrant Plantation Camps As protests continue across the Emerald Isle over insane legislation and Fuel duties bankrupting farmers, hauliers and businesses everywhere. The Irish government has been building numerous camps to house armies of unknown military age fighting Men under the guise of refugees & asylum seekers. The scale of the betrayal which may well lead to the erasure of the Irish people is simply unfathomable - it is so sinisterly evil it’s unreal.
