I was just watching the news there about the students in England marching because of cuts in Education and the news in France there over the last few weeks when they were trouble over cutting there pensions and everyone took to the reason why i have written this is because why haven't there been any major marches on Dublin or protest if we don't start speaking out the government are still going to fleece the poor to fix there faults this December budget is going to be unreal we lost our fighing spirit as a nation.I probably get slated for putting this up but any comments would we be great if we can get a debate on this going.
just wait till the budget , in the words of the kaiser chiefs "I Predict A Riot"
Biggles you obviously dont watch the news lol because there are protests and campaigns made in Ireland.
There was a protest on the 4th of November just gone in Dublin by students from all over the country, up to 40,000 students had marched on government buildings in protest at government plans to raise the third-level registration fee from €1,500 to €3,000!!!
Taxi drivers have protested, along with European Day Of Action: Protests In Dublin - September 29th to name but a few!!
and I forgot this one coming up in December.
March on the Dail on Budget Day.
Anarchy is coming, Revolution is near. Where are the Trotskys and Lenins of Irish politics? Surely not Gilmore and Kenny?
To be honest i don't think it would go that far but when big rich filthy bankers getting away with murder and the avreage joe getting getting thrown into prison because they cant afford to pay there bills .Whos know all it takes is a spark.
Biggles, I'm no rioter!
I think they are going to try a new tactic.
:lol2: love it cider mate a goodone.
I thought there would be more protests especially after it was announced about the bailout. I hope in the weeks to come that more people do take to the streets to show the powers that be what we think.
I do agree Stig, but we have to remember that at the end of the day it wont make a difference no matter what we do, the goverment has not listened to the People of Ireland is over 90 years and i doubt they will start now.
We are well and truely f***ed....but nothing new with this country sadly
