Protesters tried to break through the gates of the Dáil tonight during a march against Government plans to inject billions of euro into the country’s banks.

Dozens of people broke away from the march and ran at the gates of the Dáil’s main building, Leinster House.

They wrestled with Gardaí, who tried to force them back while attempting to secure the gate.

At least one man suffered a head injury during the scuffles, with organisers appealing for calm.

Sky News is sooo Tabloidish I thought we'd know that by now?:rolleyes:

''Storming the dail''?

Could we be any more gullible?

I dont agree with the protest, roaming outside the dail asking the government to change the financial crisis is a bit like forcing money to literally grow on a tree, its IMPOSSIBLE. we have to let the government and even help them pick up the pieces and mend the damage done.

Its like when I was a child, ''dad can I have money for sweets at the shop'' ''I have no money son'' ''YES YOU DO DAD I KNOWWWW YOU DO'' ''no I dont '' etc etc

its a childish protest.

I would hope that if this is ever attempted again that the gardai would have the manpower to smash the knackers.


Edit and I hope those FOOLS with their faces on the news are ARRESTED pronto.

WTF do you expect from a Television and Radio Network thats an Owned Subsidiary of the State?

Six-one spun it as being about 'government cut-backs'. I wonder who's pulling the strings at the newsdesk...

Because it's the Irish bastardisation of an English name, not the other way round.

Affront to democracy.

Not if the protesters are from Donegal South West, Dublin South or Waterford

To anyone applauding these people...you're an absolute fool if you think these people have any of your interests (or the country's) at heart.

That may indeed be the case

However youre a bigger fool if you think the (sometimes) inhabitants of the inside of said building do either.

One of your points was that we should give ourselves back to the UK so I thought that you might Anglicise your user-name to keep in with the spirit of your argument.

I wish the fools hanging around the Dail on a daily basis (at leat the part of the year they're not on holiday) would also be removed from the premises.

The New World Order obviously. We should get onto Jim Corr for an independent adjudication.

Good to see the protesters being held back.

If you want to protest about the current government, you do it in a democratic manner.

Trying to storm the dail, which has army and gardaí on duty, smart move?.. I think not.

Also, the protest seems to have been organized by the Right to Work Campaign.

Statement by the Oireachtas

A small scale protest took place outside the gates of the Houses of the Oireachtas building (the Irish Parliament) this evening. A small number of protestors attempted to gain access to the confines of Leinster House, however, contrary to media reports they did not gain entry to the Parliament buildings or its grounds but were stopped by the Gardai.

This incident in no way impinged on the business or workings of the Irish Parliament or government.

P_1

Smart move trying to storm the Dail when it is closed for the evening. Congrats to all the Einsteins involved in that shambles.

Honestly if you want something done right :rolleyes:

But seeing people contantly elect incaple, unqualifed morons and then seeingpeople acting like a pack of imbiciles ignoring reality doesn't make me proud to be irish.

TBH it was foolish to try and invade government buildings; which constitutes an attempt at an Overthrow. A large demonstration outside would have sufficed.

fcuking scum. I was actually going to go in and protest against this protest but everyone i know advised me not to. I'm bloody glad I didn't.

Hold me back, lads! Hold me back!

Its definitely nothing to laugh about though, I think its so sad to see so many of our own, behaving like such idiots and embarrassing themselves and the rest of us with them.
