I had a busy day today, but I finally made it up to O'Connell Street to meet with the protesters for Day 5. It was great to see some familiar faces from Meath, Cavan, and Louth.
I had a wee chat with James Geoghegan. I hope he is well compensated by the media for defaming him.
The atmosphere there is great: Gardaí on the ground are pleasant, and traffic is flowing—only O'Connell Street is blocked. Traffic on the Quays is flowing too.
Hopefully, this government will put an end to these countrywide protests tomorrow with a package that benefits everyone.
Keep it peaceful.

Irish people peacefully protesting in Dublin 🇮🇪
This is about more than the cost of fuel for many Irish people
It's about an abusive FFG government. A state-funded media & NGO complex. Cost of living, housing, immigration, illegal migrants etc.
Ireland 1846 All Over Again: Farmers Can’t Afford to Feed You — Will You Wait Until It’s Too Late?
• 1845: potato blight hits….but Ireland still produced food
• Food continued to be exported while the poorest had little to no access
• There was a window to act before people were weakened
• By Black ’47: starvation, disease, collapse
• ~1 million dead, ~2 million forced to leave
• A quarter of the population gone
• Not because food didn’t exist…
• Because access to it was lost
• Fast forward to today:
• Irish farmers on the roads — fighting to survive
• Rising costs, squeezed margins, unsustainable pressure
• If farmers can’t afford to produce food…
• what happens next?
• History shows:
• You don’t wait until the crisis peaks
• Because by then….it’s too late
• Control the food control the people.
• We still have strength
• We still have choice
• Support those producing your food
• Or learn the lesson the hard way
Our 1846 is now. We are in the 11th hour.
Michael McNamara TD grills Justice Minister Helen McEntee on asylum seeker returns:
"The other country accepted responsibility, accepted they would take them back, a decision was made to transfer them, and you transferred 3 of those 188 [asylum seekers]. Where's the problem?"

JUST IN - Tucker Carlson first discussion after Putin's interview: "I've been trying to get this interview for three years. The U.S. government prevented me from doing this by spying on my messages and leaking them to the New York Times."
Lots today on #Crotty ruling to force a referrendum on WHO Treaty, none of which would have happened if not for the hard graft, resilience & bravery of Barrister Tracey O Mahoney whose legal deconstuction of the WHO documents & identification of Crotty was pivotal. A heroine.
