    Not looking good for the capability of the Irish to govern themselves. Only 21% have good judgement. The rest just like electing someone new everytime they get the chance and they get the hump when it turns out they havent elected a miracle worker.

    Disappointed with you people of Ireland. Disappointed. So much potential, but must try harder.


    mmmm you sound a bit like a dictator :confused:

    Lads, anyone with an account here is entitled to post their view if it adheres to the charter, whether they live here or not.

    I ask again that both sides remain civil, attack the post, not the poster. Report any posts you feel breach the charter, thanks

    Agreed and KeithClancy can have his opinion on the matter, even if that includes lazy attacks on protesters and gleeful denigration of their intent.

    However, Keith's residing half the year outside of the country and by his own admission (IIRC) of not paying any taxes here allows him the room to have a blase stance on support for Irish Water, as it doesn't and won't affect him as much as it will the people who DO live here 365.

    If people's suspicions of Irish Water come to light, the monetary and other effects could be quite devastating for a large number of people, who are already struggling to make ends meet in Ireland.

    aw c'mon..... cold and wind so we all stay at home? You sound like my granny of 94! I think people are made of stronger stuff at this stage:)

    maybe wherever you live buses have been cancelled but not in my neck of the woods, Drogheda - which has a big population (no reduction on Property tax in Co Louth either - yet we are in and out of the Meath border in lots of areas here and Meath got 15% reduction - my neighbours 3 minutes away live in Meath in a bigger house than me but pay less property tax - such an unfair system but don't get me started :mad:)

    I'm in Dublin. And I explained how i know about 3 buses being cancelled.

    And rain and cold will keep people that were kind of on the fence away. Also people that might be bringing kids. I wasn't insinuating the weather would result in about 10 or 20 people turning up.

    given the bottleneck that is kildare street, i honestly dont think a few thousand less will make any difference.

    there'll be enough people to fill kildare street a few times over anyway.

    Any of the right2water pages. Their activity and people replying has been well down. Lack of videos going up despite water meter installations going ahead. Pick any of the estates that featured in the media and add 'says no' to the end of it. Likewise, lack of activity, lack of videos, lack of stuff being shared in general.

    Sure take this thread even. The pages were flying along and recently there's maybe one or two new pages a day.

    I'd appreciate if you could lash up all the popular facebook and twitter pages so i can regain my confidence that there will be a good turnout. So please put up the ones with a lot of activity and mentions of bus loads of people turning up. I'd like to follow them.

    censored is the wrong word. monitored is more truthful. in no way different to how secret services monitor 'key subversive words' in most countries. im not saying thats right but the cuban government is doing nothing no one else is doing. also, they make people very aware that they're being monitored. its not hush hush.

    if anything the cuban internet 'censorship' comes from the american side. also worth keeping in mind that cost is a massive factor in cuban's having bad internet access. this cost is again attributed to amercia's embargo.

    two sides.

    Theres people who don't have facebook, people already in Dublin (bar the 3 buses lol), those that will make there own arrangements, people that have facebook that haven't replied but have pmed the people responsible for the buses

    Facebook public replies is never a true reflection on whose actually going tbh, and as for the weather the last march in November there was at least 20000 if not more on the streets in Waterford in the pissing rain getting soaked so that argument is rubbish and that included children

    You're in Dublin, and you know of three buses being cancelled that were headed into, er....... Dublin......

    is that Right?

    Fúcking hell. Read what i wrote. I need 3 buses tomorrow for my own business. The person i always use had 3 buses leaving Dublin. You still following this now? His buses would have been leaving from Dublin. And driving to Meath and Kildare to pick up people. They were full. Last Friday he contacted me to say one by one groups cancelled. His words were, what was left would fit in a 7 seater taxi. Had i not arranged 3 alternative buses. I could have used the person i always use.

    It seems there's some people on here that can't take any critical observations on this issue. As i also mentioned before. I am against Irish water and my posts in this thread previously have reflected it. And i'm almost sure yourself and Shin had thanked them. But one critical observation and it's like flies to shíte.

    And here's some other mind blowing shít. I'll be going tomorrow.

    So there are many people that have buses advertising that they are willing to take people to Dublin for a fee? I think the earth just shattered beneath my feet. Hope they still aren't advertising. May not be good for numbers.

    Only need another 99,712 people now to get to the 100k mark.

    To be fair Keith, your post is a barrel of ****e.

    In October, 8000 had said they would go on FB, 100,000 Turned up.

    I struggle to understand your snide comment ?

    Fúcking hell. Read what i wrote. I need 3 buses tomorrow for my own business. The person i always use had 3 buses leaving Dublin. You still following this now? His buses would have been leaving from Dublin. And driving to Meath and Kildare to pick up people. They were full. Last Friday he contacted me to say one by one groups cancelled. His words were, what was left would fit in a 7 seater taxi. Had i not arranged 3 alternative buses. I could have used the person i always use.

    It seems there's some people on here that can't take any critical observations on this issue. As i also mentioned before. I am against Irish water and my posts in this thread previously have reflected it. And i'm almost sure yourself and Shin had thanked them. But one critical observation and it's like flies to shíte.

    And here's some other mind blowing shít. I'll be going tomorrow.

    I still don't get the correlation between the cancelling of the buses and the people not going, it just means the buses were cancelled it in no way signifies no one that booked isn't going

    They may have thought it was better to do there own thing in the end, your just making an assumption there not bothering because they cancelled

    Unless you've talked to them then that's a different matter

    I think around 14000 said they are going tomorrow on the current main page, (which might i add, i havent clicked anything on it).
    Going by this logic, close to 200,000 will show up:D....That would be a miracle btw. Even i'm realistic enough to see that...

    If anyone is against this whole shambles, you need to try your best to get there tomorrow.

    If he was a dictator you would not have the ability to reply in an open forum :cool:

    Of course he would,as many do.

    Not including people who don't have facebook of course and will be getting the bus, which I'm sure people over a certain age would be included heavily in that demographic.

    Hopefully we can push it to 300 by tonight..:)

    There's a storm coming and it isn't to do with weather;)

    Theres people who don't have facebook, people already in Dublin (bar the 3 buses lol), those that will make there own arrangements, people that have facebook that haven't replied but have pmed the people responsible for the buses

    Facebook public replies is never a true reflection on whose actually going tbh, and as for the weather the last march in November there was at least 20000 if not more on the streets in Waterford in the pissing rain getting soaked so that argument is rubbish and that included children

    Well why post it in the first place then except to get a sly dig in at the amount whove replied on the various pages knowing full well that isn't a true reflection on whose going

    But ye said youd have a go anyways, didn't work now though did it
