    **** off, you ruined any chance of myself enjoying the parade over the weekend. The ONE day I want to feel a sense of pride and enjoy my time out and you people force this rubbish upon me.

    I wish you people marched in your own time instead of wasting mine.

    We have marched on our own time.

    The reason we marched in the parade was simply to get the word out to as many people as we can.
    We got a great reception and I don't feel we ruined the parade at all, Going by the Clapping and cheering the crowd gave us.

    Every person has a right to speak up and voice their opinion. I am paying the household charge (out of fear for bigger fines) but don't agree with it at all.

    If you pay it in one years time. And there is no getting away from it, you will have to pay it eventually.
    Refuse to pay extra taxes, thrown more money at them through late fees. Was this campaign really thought out?

    Just paid the household charge on line.
    Hope to God that F.F. never ever return to power to rob us all again. The working people of Ireland are on their Knees all because of F.F. and their big wealthy cronies.

    So it's fine for FG and their wealthy cronies to rob us all with this poor excuse of a levy?

    never forget the reason for this levy.
    F.F. and their friends with money in brown envelopes were the law and the decision makers in this country for far too long. F.F. were also in the pockets of The big bankers and we the ordinary people were led up the garden path and are now having to pay trough the nose in order to rectify the financial mess created by the High and Mighty F.F.
    The people also have to answer as to why we continued to elect them when we all new that C.J.H., B.A. R.B. L.L. P.F. and many more were riding the system, but we were happy enough to turn a blind eye as long as it did not come to our door. We were fools easily fooled and the sad thing about it all is the fact that there are people out there that would vote F.F. no matter how corrupt they are.
    As a nation we need to grow up and leave behind civil war politics and stop voting for political parties because our parents voted for them, until the time comes that the electorate of this country mature we will remain at the mercy of corrupt politicians.
