Would they ever fuck off
Arrest them. Otherwise this gives a template to every godforsaken group of fuckwits who have believe they have a point to make.
So when are the Gardai going to step in? Embarrassing! A few tractors blocking White gate and Martin calling it an act of national sabotage. Micheal this is why we pay you the big bucks ffs! Your meant to take decisive action in these situations.
2 days is breaking point for the public.
After that the public turns against them.
The Guards need to get the fuckin finger out now tomorrow and put an end to this bullshit.
Fucking gimps
A handful of inbred farmers holding the country to random certainly wasn’t in my 2026 bingo card.

What do they honestly expect our government to do? It’s a global issue and we didn’t invade Iran. Pack of absolute morons. I get that their diesel is way up but they have to be realistic
Keep going. Every car and bus you block is more and more people who think you’re cunts.
I’m fully in favour of people protesting and this is a decent method tbf, but their demands are stupid – how can the government cap fuel prices, it’s a global commodity the price is beyond their control
These protesters are absolute scum. We are the ones who get fucked at the end of the day. They pass on these costs to the consumers regardless.
This affects the average person’s day not the politicians. Why hurt us. What do they gain by this ? but only the hatred from normal people trying to go about their daily life.
Also do they not have work /hauling to do ?
Fucking Wankers.
Fair play lads. The government will continue to get away with gouging us unless action is taken.
Pull the f*cking finger out Micheál and Co. It’s lunacy that this bunch of absolute feckwits are allowed endanger people needing medical and emergency assistance. Absolute dregs of the island. Should be stripped of their citizenship, and their names published.
The idiots will make this fuel crisis harder for people and fuel will remain at higher prices for longer by now creating an artificial shortage. Selfish pricks think they are the most important groups of people in Ireland. Their businesses are hurting but f other businesses that are also struggling not to mention the general public.
The dream would be people start parking in front of their farms/businesses to block access to see how they would accept that „inconvenience“.
Cunts. My already sleep deprived missus was 9 hrs on the road today doing what should be a 4 hr drive to her elderly parents to collect our kid who was with them. Mother in law had to reschedule a hospital appointment cos she had the gosson. She was in tears sitting in the car. Fuck them. Every last one of the bastards.
What I don’t get is why lefties are angry about this??
I thought they didn’t want us driving to begin with (the climate and all that).
So surely they would be happy about fuel depots being blocked?
I wish we got as upset over housing or health issues!
I mean a schedule is fair enough
Farmers – while important – have been indulged for far too long in their methods of protest. I’m all for protests, we should do much more of it, but no other group would get away with this level of disruption to everyone else in this country. Clear them out.
Im replying this to a few comments.
The protest want the government’s slice of the €2.20 per liter to be capped at 0.60 cent ( which was their portion before the war) . So government isn’t really losing out on any money and the price of fuel stays affordable.
Their fuel cost has nearly doubled. Yet cant charge more for the food they produce because the factories and supermarkets are also at breaking point of people not being able to afford food.
The farmers are the first to fall.
We all follow.
I know if your not from a rural village its easy to say greedy fuckers, but honestly its this or bust.
They did Nothing for Mercasur. Just some meaningless crap. The same with water charges
Genuinely believe the Guards don’t have equipment to move tractors on, that’s why this isn’t being shut down quickly.
So should I drive from drogheda into Dublin or get the train? 🤔
This sub is the biggest echochamber ever. Not a single person i know outside of this sub is against this protest, but by this sub you would swear no one in the public agrees with this. Everyone seems disgusted that a protest will cause disruption as if that isnt the point.
Great guys, I’ll be joining the protest, will you?
Christ, wait until Martin calls in the army…….
I never understood how targeting the general public with hardship is a strategy for winning sympathy for your plight.
They may have a valid point surrounding excise on fuel that could be cut at least temporarily specifically for commercial use, but because they’re cunts I’m hoping the government use private companies to assist in seizing and impounding each and every vehicle and use release fees and cuts in agriculture subsidies to pay for it.
I can’t believe the comments here. Do people not realise the increased costs farmers, contractors etc have share a direct correlation to food prices in 6 months time?
Everything from your tray of mince meat, butter, milk, cheese etc is going to increase again. I work in the Agri sector and the price increases that are being applied almost over night make Covid and the start of the war in Ukraine look like child’s play. Silage wrap, fertiliser, feed etc. It’s completely unsustainable.
Take the farmers out of it. Your ordinary joe soap commuting from Kildare or further a field end up spending a €100 extra in diesel a week, that’s a €100 not spent in the local restaurant or shop.
The comments above aren’t very sympathetic to what could result in a recession.
Would love to see the breakdown of people for/against this protest and where they live.
Locally absolutely everyone supports them and can see the good they’re trying to achieve but the Reddit population sees them as an ignorant scourge
Some whingebags in here!
If the shoe was on the other foot and it was your core income that had disappeared over a few weeks you’d be losing the plot! Ye probably wouldn’t have the guts to do anything other than whinge on Reddit.
I’m not affected by it but I support them. I’ll be stuck in it again tomorrow myself.
Perform a protest that doesn’t affect people and it has no impact and no pressure on the government.
Look at how much talk there has been about it. It’s already a success. Stop your whinging and find a good audiobook for tomorrows commute. Next week you’ll be back to the normal rat race, don’t fret.
Also, Martin and Harris walking out laughing and smirking today is a terrible look.
The Cromwellian entitlement of some of these big farmers – are they not subsidised enough; blocking the roads and motorways killing small businesses. I wish we got as upset over housing and healthcare.
Farmers with their hands out again.
Will they ever fuck off?
Where are these going to fill up to get home? Can’t stop at a forecourt for a top up as it’s illegal to mix red and green and that’s assuming the forecourt has fuel with them blocking the refineries.
One young fella at Limerick was saying that he had 6 of his 8 tractors parked on the motorway. So that means he has about €2 million worth of assets.
The guards should be confiscating or impounding the vehicles.
This surely cannot be going on for a 3rd day? This needs to end its a disgrace
Any abandon vehicles should be seized. Anyone parking a vehicle on a road should be getting penalty points.
Missed a funeral today because of the detour the blockade took me on.
Farmers would want to be careful about getting used by political grifters. I wouldn’t want the average Joe soap to learn the extent and cost of the various schemes and benefits that farmers can accrue.
These protests are being organised on a large scale by far right activists and the average working class people have just been dragged into it unknowingly.
One of the main organisers Chris Duffy has been involved in far right movements for years now. Here’s a video of him from a year ago speaking about IPAS centres:

He seems to have locked down his social media pages since these protests started and got rid of any hint of what his political views are.
It’s seems just reddit is opposed to this protest and thinks there all the scum of the earth what’s that about?

We should infiltrate the WhatsApp groups, Facebook groups etc and disrupt their planning. Here is the link to North West group. Complete lunatics in it https://chat.whatsapp.com/J1bHRD9W9cCHajS3P2IVnY?mode=gi_t
