    Perhaps because experience in the North is that they campaign on a populist left wing manifesto and govern from a right-wing perspective. They claim to be an all-Ireland party but have very different agendas that are more partitionist than other parties eg no problem with council tax up north but huge problems with property tax down here etc etc

    Forgetting their history they are just another FF.

    Add to that the ruinous "economic" policies they propose to help the country recover. Thye would probably have a similar impact to the policies put forward by the FF clowns.

    Protesting outside the Dail = grand knock yourselves out, tis your democratic right and all.

    Blocking O'Connell Bridge and preventing people from getting home = get up and away you bunch of traitorous fools

    There were not allowed, Kildare St was blocked off to them, talk about the right to protest, seems to me in this country it depends on what you are protesting about. At least these ppl care about what is happening to this country enough to get out there and protest about it. You could not get home, boo boo, poor you. You could have easily taken another route or walked around it. People in the past put their lives on the line for the right to free speech and to protest, seems to me it is you who is the traitor and a lazy one at that.

    How does one take another route or walk around when they live 8 miles away and are on a bus?

    They dont need excuses. They have exercised their right to choose to use public transport and have paid accordingly. The service they paid for is then disrupted by a crowd of upstarts with nothing better to do.

    Yes, because the eco system and rioters rights trump all others.

    He is probably one of the ones whinging a few weeks back how he couldn't get to the dole office or his Mammy couldn't go shopping because the bus drivers were striking.
