Are they protesting for worker’s rights? Lift 'em. Are they protesting DEI in libraries? Bring 'em on a tour. Are they protesting against immigrants? Sit idly by.

The far right aren’t just trying to infiltrate, by all accounts, they organised this whole thing!!

I fully support people's right to protest but I don't support far right bullshit pretending to be about farmers and hauliers and I can't recall another protest ever being allowed to bring the city to a halt for 36 hours and still going without any consequences whatsoever

this isn't a protest campaign, and it doesn't have reps, it's a series of barely coordinated wildcat actions. no one person or group is even in a position to stand this down if they were given a meeting

These lumpen idiots, attaching themselves to the protest think if you're not a racist you don't support working class people and you're a "paedo". #speirgorm

Irish Times editorial labels fuel protests “unacceptable disruption”

They're telling people to travel the night before - that's not an option for most people and certainly not for people who need medical equipment. One woman was told to travel via back roads - she's transporting someone who has a spinal cord injury! They don't care. And the whiff of fash is

Labour leader Ivana Bacik has said that the government has created a “vacuum” which allows racist, anti-immigrant rhetoric and misinformation to develop #Speirgorm dublinpeople.com/news/dublin/...

🤬 ‘Dublin Fire Brigade appeals to protesters after “significant delays” responding to emergencies.’ jrnl.ie/7006656 #SpeirGorm

Why aren't the Garda and traffic wardens impounding and moving the vehicles? #spéirgorm

My mother witnessed an ambulance having to go onto the grass verge yesterday outside Limerick. My friend just witnessed the ERU struggling to get through traffic in the Castlestroy area of Limerick. Tell me again how emergency vehicles aren't being hindered. #Speirgorm

Drivers going up on the roundabout at Shannonpark to get around fuel protest convoy

I see the Irish Nazi’s are out supporting the fuel people as well. It’s almost as if it isn’t just about fuel …….

This will surely help fuel prices for eveyone #spéirgorm

#Spéirghorm we’ve seen this name before.

So, if I go park my car across the gate of an agricultural contractor's yard they'll just have to accept it and wait for me to move ? That's how it works yeah ? Should I plaster the car with tricolours or just have one flag ? #Speirgorm

Of course it’ll be no surprise to anyone that Tom is friendly with Ireland’s premier sexual & physical assaulter, especially after he found Jesus. #speirgorm

The tall man he is talking to at the start of the video is Tom McDonnell, a Kildare County Councillor who ran on an exclusively anti immigrant ticket. Tom famously said, “women need to breed more”, as his solution to the great replacement conspiracy theory. #speirgorm

@paulmurphy.pbp.ie wanted to join fuel protests, but then it descended into the usual far right talking points, showing that like immigrant protests of recent years it wasn’t about fuel or people’s livelihoods - it’s the same ol’ racist crew hopping on a bandwagon. #spiergorm

This fella, John Dallon, was interviewed by Eddie Hobbs this evening and he and Christopher Duffy were also doing a Facebook Live with Niall McConnell a little while ago. The smell of fash keeps getting stronger. #Speirgorm

“Surelookit, we’re the ones digging spuds, carrying them to market and selling them to the housewives, bucks stops at home, never mind the €2B in EU subsidies our industry gets, and how 80% of what we produce is exported, the buck stops at home, which is why we’re demanding more of them”

You might not like the IFA etc but there are 5 LEGITIMATE farm orgs. None of them endorsed or involved themselves in this. So lads like this fella put themselves forward of leaders. Lads who are chronically online. We've been here before, in 2019. It was a Facebook organised event that led nowhere

Right folks as one of the few farmers on here let me explain something really simple. We're currently in the busiest time of year, calving & lambing is ongoing and crops need tending The awful weather means contractors are also flat out So how representative do you think this lad is? #speirgorm

#Speirgorm No groups should be able or allowed hold the country to ransom

Don’t forget. A fossil-friendly crypto-loving AI-boosting climate-skeptic green-bashing guy in the White House got us into this mess. Seems unlikely his policies will get us out of it.

There is something very bleak about the threat of annihilation of an entire country filtered disproportionately through the lens of the cost of petrol and diesel. The energy crisis is real and serious but so is the threat to our shared humanity. www.rte.ie/news/ireland...

Im sick of America destabilising the world Im sick of the US bombing and murdering people in different parts of the planet Im sick of Israel being funded by the US and being provided with bombs to murder people Im sick of the two countries inflicting so much destruction 💔😢

Their flag-shagging "convoy" stuff is a direct import from the US. What'll it be next: bumper stickers?

#Speirgorm what's the point of the fuel protests and why aren't they taking place outside the US embassy instead of blockading the roads of the country Surely protests outside the US embassy would be more logical as they have cause the fuel crisis by bombing Iran

#Speirgorm of an older generation what do you remember about Chocolate in #Dublin in the 50s, 60s, 70s Also what #Easter traditions existed

From Rasputin to Putin: Why Russia will never learn from its history

A Status Orange wind warning has been issued for Wexford, while the rest of the country is under a Status Yellow warning as Storm Dave hits Ireland and the UK. jrnl.ie/7003448

The Generals are gone. The AG is gone. We started a war. Gas is up. Healthcare is up. Prescriptions are up. The rich are richer. The poor are poorer. Protesters have been killed. Service members have been killed. The law is a suggestion. The constitution is a memory. We. Are. Not. Okay.

American troops are absolutely going to be deployed to Iran this week… You will never convince me that America, a country actively taking rights away from their own women, give a single flying fuck about the rights of Iranian women. This has everything to do with oil and money — AGAIN.

protesting in this outfit is a real “heads I win, tails you lose” moment when it comes to the optics

#Kilmore #Wexford #Speirgorm

Amnesty International say what is happening in Palestine is a genocide. The UN Special Rapporteur say it's a genocide. Countless genocide scholars say it's a genocide. How are we still doing this? And why is the BBC doing this? youtu.be/Es_wxH04bgs?...

Any other nation in history with as a corrupt an administration, as criminal a President, and as cowed and weak a people, Americans would be the first to call it a dictatorship and a failed state. That's simply a fact. Either remove the regime now or accept what you are.

can't argue....

If you think Benjamin Netanyahu wouldn’t prioritise naked self-interest over the security of the entire world, you really haven’t been paying attention.

Traffic restrictions are in place around Liffey Valley, near the bus terminal as Firefighter/Paramedics from Tallaght along with our Blanchardstown ambulance respond to an incident. A District Officer from Dolphins Barn and Gardaí are also at the scene. 📷File

Yes—you're reading this NYT report right: Israel shrieked at Lebanese civilians (including women, kids, and the elderly) to "FLEE FOR YOUR LIVES!", Denethor-style, then... ...bombed the bridge they needed to use to flee. This war is evil. Those launched it are evil. No good person fails to see it.

Weird how a war supposedly about Iranian ballistic missile capabilities magicked itself overnight into Israeli adventurism in southern Lebanon that looks a hell of a lot like what its Kremlin allies are doing in Ukraine by annexing land they have no right to while slaughtering all who get in the way

If youre ever down in sunny south east of Ireland try chocolate making classes I didn't watch the rugby today spent the day learning how to make chocolates with Zaeire chocolates in Bridgetown Wexford #Speirgorm #Wexford #chocolate

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

A delicious read about the abject failure of Elon's Nazi Diner, but we do have one quibble: #TeslaTakedown protestors are out there making life miserable for fascists every Friday and Saturday night @teslatakedownla.bsky.social @bronsonland.bsky.social www.sfgate.com/la/article/t...

With Saint Patrick's Day coming up and all things Ireland and Irish being celebrated question for my fellow Irish and non Irish alike - What are your favourite Irish independent businesses? - What are your favourite Irish brands? (even from the big company's not just small) #Speirgorm

When the cameras leave the people are forgotten. Enniscorthy is still recovering, but they know it’s not a case of if it will happen again, but when it will happen again. Imagine living in that constant state of fear and dread! The town needs the flood relief scheme now!! #SpeirGorm

Cold evening 🥶 #DidYouKnow hot water bottles generally expire 2-3 years after being made? They pose a severe risk of bursting or leaking, causing burns.

You’d think in this era of “MPs face increasing danger” there would be more outrage at newly elected Green MP Hannah Spencer being assaulted by transphobes but it’s nowhere to be seen on BBC News app even if you search her name
