    Any chance she could be a settled, white, Irish person, who simply lost control of her car? A Micra is hardly the first choice for IS milliants.

    I'd say she was heading up to the Phoenix park to see what section she's in, got lost, and was pulling in to ask for directions. Probably used to 12/14 foot wide gateways.

    Yup

    One of my favourite quotes from X-Files (Mulder) was something along this lines:

    If you talk to God its okay, if God talks to you theres a problem

    The story behind this incident would be interesting though

    Also.

    It is understood the middle-aged woman driving the car this morning initially stopped and having been told by gardaí she could not proceed, expressed anger with Taoiseach Leo Varadkar.

    She then sought to drive through the closed entrance, colliding with the pillar of the gates.

    When the collision occurred, at low speed, the woman’s Nissan Micra stopped and she was taken from the vehicle and arrested

    Lol. Apparently there's some scratches on the car and there "might" be some scratches on the gate.

    She expressed anger with Taoiseach Leo Varadkar prior to crashing into the gates according to the IT. What was she going to do with the nativity crib and the lights?

    Backs up the theory....

    A small nativity crib could be seen in the back of the car on the floor behind the driver's seat, complete with a small set of battery operated lights.

    Since when was gatecrashing a crime? Bad manners yes. But she'd heard there were a number of parties in there.

    Maybe she was coming from the Brown Thomas Christmas shop that's now open, and took a wrong turn
