    Good lad Banjo. If you answer a point you answer it. If you can't you cry shill. :p

    You lads are hilarious.

    I just watched the video online from today. Peaceful protest surrounding Joan's car. It's brilliant stuff. Well done to all there. I hope to see more of it.

    Serious stupidity going on with Joan and Enda .

    How uniformed can she be not to know how angry people are?
    Shows the utter arrogance and blinkered view this Government have toward the people who are screaming at them " enough ".

    With each passing day the government do more damage to themselves and any lingering hope they had of a second term in office.

    Enda should contact Bertie and ask him how he won three elections in a row. Before that it was usually one term governments, sometimes not even running their full term. But Bertie and Biffo got 15 years out of it. I'm sure Bertie would charge only a small constultancy fee.

    you really shouldn't be surprised stargate, women are the ones who are very disproportionately adversly affected by poverty. there are more women imprisoned for inabilaty to pay bills than all other inmates combined. it sucks, i know..

    you really are an obtuse plank....

    you think making others potentially homeless is ok with you, as long as you and yours aren't affected. 700 kids were made homeless in the last few months, nice for some who can afford to think thats a joke..

    Another so called "peaceful protest" today, chanting peaceful protest while banging a car and fighting guards doesn't really do anyone any favours in terms of scrapping these charges. Disgraceful behaviour yet again and why the guards don't throw the book at them is beyond me.

    Well done to the people in Tallaght for this peaceful protest. Good luck to IW when they eventually build up the courage to come to Tallaght to install the bank tax meters.

    The guards never even took off their hats in solidarity with the protestors. Disgraceful. Although I did see a couple of them getting their hats knocked off in the peaceful protest.

    Who needs evidence?
    Even when there's video evidence of IW workers trespassing and assaulting homeowners with a high pressure jet of water the pro tax lads deny it.

    Just watched a video on the Irish times site showing people banging on the car with their placards and a man in a grey jumper being dragged away from the guards by his wife as he was attacking them. Then there was a few objects flying through the air at the car.

    Anyone debating to go to the protest on the 10th will be discouraged by this sort of behaviour doing themselves no favours at all.

    I'm sure any protests will be entirely peaceful and the workers will be able to go about their business unimpeded.

    its not like any of them were made homeless or imprisoned. pity you can't find any empathy for those who were.

    Good lad Banjo. If you answer a point you answer it. If you can't you cry shill. :p

    I never called you, or dx a shill. Ever.

    I pointed out, that it was bizarre to say the least, that two, very much pro water charges posters, would quote me, but utterly fall to quote the very first line of my post, which would have been the most important part.

    Two of you. Both left it out.

    Very convenient. Very bizarre.

    because the guards agree with the protests, as they are being screwed left right and centre themselves

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.
