@MonkehPutler @fogaratigh My taxes are quite high enough without being raised to pay subsidies to these rich far right farmers, thanks.

@OisinRichards @fogaratigh No, it’s were blocking this refinery so no fuel can get into the country. No trucks to deliver to supermarkets or emergency services. Quite right that the government needs to restore order.

@fdesmet2021 @fogaratigh You see the evil right there. You’d actually love to see shelves go bare so families and elderly people can’t feed themselves. That’s just twisted.

@SaintMedia10 No. The crime is blockading streets roads and ports. And it’s about time the gardaí dealt with it. They have been far too soft all week, letting mob rule by hooligans take over the country.

@Mick_O_Keeffe About time.

@ApparelParadigm @brianmlucey And what then? My taxes go up to pay for their subsidies? No thanks.

@Jayji1008 @Barra15505850 @RealEddieHobbs No. But you don’t have a right to blockade streets, main roads, ports and refineries. You don’t have a right to disrupt citizens going about their lives. Getting to work, school, hospital appointments etc. stand outside the Dail or on the side of the road and protest all you want

@SammySm58130939 @micheal_olainn No. They’re not. Agriculture contributes about 1% of GDP and about 60% of farmers’ incomes come from subsidies and payments from the government and EU. Backbone of this country my arse.

@BDowd60359 @micheal_olainn Eh … he’s defending the Irish taxpayer. Because if the government gives in to this blackmail and caps fuel prices who is picking up the tab of billions of euro? The Irish taxpayer.

@TheLiberal_ie About time this lawlessness was dealt with. We can’t have random hooligans blocking streets, major roads, ports and refineries. If the State gives in to this blackmail everyone with a grievance will just do the same.
