Fuel protest tomorrow

Fuel protest organisers have promised another “massive” nationwide demonstration on Thursday after blockades and slow-moving convoys caused significant disruption across the country.

Protests escalated as they entered a second day on Wednesday, with Taoiseach Micheál Martin condemning the blockade of the State’s only oil refinery as an “act of national sabotage”.

Organisers pledged to continue protesting until they secure a meeting over rising fuel costs, though the Taoiseach has insisted the Government would only meet with “representative organisations”.

Further convoys are to be formed from 6am on Thursday at various routes across the country, including in Dublin, Wexford, Galway, Donegal and Cork, as protests roll into a third day.

One thing is clear tonight listening to James Geoghegan in Virgin Media.

They’re not in control of the protests or protestors. They’ve gone in too deep now, are in over their heads and need an off ramp.

Mick Clifford has cut him apart.
 
Jesus, you’re some hysterical Mary.
No not at all, its a fucking fact, imagine it, emergency vehicles run of petroleum products that the pricks, the likes of you look up to, are now blocking the distribution of.

Not to forget also, airplanes need that stuff too, I hope you idiots are not flying off anywhere soon because ye may not be.

Facts are an absolute bollox to your type obviously
