Wow the outrage,gutter corrupt media sensationalist bullsh*t, iPhone Joan goes to one of the most deprived areas in the country, and is trapped in her car, was she expecting people to give her a round of applause after what this stinking parasite and her lackeys have done to this country, she then orders the despicable gardai, the worst police force in Europe to round up the "sinister element" and arrest them. first up is Paul Murphy a man who unlike the yes men and corrupt parasites in Leinster house is not afraid to tell it as, it is gets held on some kind of trumped up charge, then you have 10 cops come to the door of a 16 year old boy to arrest him, was this an armed and dangerous criminal, a mass murderer a love / hate type gangster, you really couldn't make this up if you tried, political policing at it's "finest" then it backfires spectacularly on them, an own goal as more and more people become aghast at the sheer amount of dirty tricks this shambolic corrupt government will do knowing well they are in terminal decline and will be confined to history as the worst government in the history of this country. Nothing surprises me anymore in Ireland, although you cannot feel more and more disgusted day in, day out when you see police brutality against water protesters, private security firms operating without impunity , a government who will go down in the history books as one of the most despised of all time for what they have done,lies, austerity,cuts, deceit, cronyism, jobs for the boys,etc,.etc the list goes on and on, i was never massively into political stuff, always took an interest but like thousands of others as a normal hard working citizen of this country i detest this government and everything they stand for, and ill continue to attend every protest i can, the gutter media are not to be believed under any circumstances,social media may have it;s bad points but it;s the likes of facebook where you can see first hand the absolute truth and not the tripe reported by RTE.,Independent,etc,etc who are basically in the pocket of the government. I LOOK FORWARD TO THE DAY WHEN THIS GOVERNMENT ALONG WITH THE TOXIC SUPER QUANGO IRISH WATER DIES A DEATH.

There was recently a protest outside Alan Kellys office in Nenagh and the protesters were utterly civil. The Gardaí came and told them to move on, they asked why they should and the Gardaí said that they were blocking the traffic. Within minutes the protesters were gone. They made their point and caused no trouble. These protesters are genuine. But eventually fools will cling on to some notion of civic duty and inevitably, trouble will follow.. What these eejits did to the mayor of Fingal has seriously damaged what genuine protesters are trying to do. This can't end well..

And I don't think high level public servants have a normal working time 9-5 again she was still probably on the clock due to the car probably being claimed for in expenses or even supplied for by the tax payer.

Odd the article is very careful not to mention what they are protesting about. But very in depth about evil protestors abusing public official on the way to see a sick child. With plenty of detail of the child's condition. Pretty one sided journalism tbh.
