What was going on there today?

I passed it twice in the car and there was Gardaí standing outside the door.

I saw Pat McDonagh leaving there at one stage.

Was that the same thing a few years ago where they shut off traffic going around the hotel and had cops on horseback?

They did that back in 2004 when Ireland had the presidency of the EU and had a big meeting there with some top European leaders. Helicopters overhead, College Road closed off.

Would that be what you mean?

Was walking by at 1pm and there were a few protestors outside waving Palestinian flags. Walked by again 10 mins later and they were gone. Loads of Garda cars and vans around town today too.
