      If these aren’t broken up surely this sets new precedent that any private business can be blockaded without consequence.

      I cannot fathom why the operation of the national infrastructure can be threatened in this manner without consequence. Send in the Gardaí.

      So all of these fuckers then can be the last to get fuel, blocking fire brigades, ambulance with blue lights on.. go get fucked, they should be the last to be filled up .

      ARU and the Armed Forces will be deployed soon. Plenty of „grass roots support“ for those fuckers to be sent packing.

      The government are sabotaging the country, why we haven’t been protesting before now has baffled me. Fair play to everyone involved!

      All these farmers need to be named and shamed and i will actively boycott any of their produce. Absolute shower of slackjaw individuals.

      Country held hostage, emergency services blocked, „protesters“ screaming about immigrants etc.

      Call it what it is, terrorism, and deal with it properly

      Government should have taken them more seriously.

      Can’t say I disagree with the protesters.

      In fact I hope they are successful.

      Lol I just got a warning for saying what we should do to these guys. Absolute shithousery allowing these ppl to carry out these acts.

      The Govt needs to listen to the people who are struggling with rising costs

    12. New-Special8963 on

      Everyone on this board talks about wanting us to be more like the French, and then we are more like the French suddenly it’s unacceptable and the army needs to be sent in.

      Most of the protestors would be happy with a commitment to temporarily further reduce excise duty/VAT and no rise in the carbon tax in 2026.

      Its a real Irish thing to whinge and moan about things, then criticise anyone who tries to do something about it.

      As someone who lives in a very rural area, the farmers speak for me

      Imagine if this was climate activists protesting our continual reliance and usage on fossil fuels and blocking the forecourts like this. I wonder what these very people in this protest would say..

      Or if they were pro-Palestinian protestors disrupting traffic and movement instead of farmers – https://www.thejournal.ie/pro-palestine-protest-dublin-port-tunnel-6835181-Oct2025/

      I remember a lot of vitriol being spewed even on here towards those protestors.

      Absolutely wild that Gardai/Govt allowed critical infrastructure to be blocked so easily and for so long. 

      Like no back up plan etc. I’m not even talking in the context of this protest. Just the act itself. 

    16. Real_Math_2483 on

      If the government gives in we’ll have teachers blocking the depots next week looking for more summer hols.

      The spokesperson for this event getting quoted on national media was speaking at a far right Síol na hÉireann event last year. Smell of fash off the whole thing.

      On one hand this misses everyone off.

      On the other hand. If we punish people for disruptive protesting… are we presenting butt…hole?

    19. Jolly-Outside6073 on

      Well that won’t cause a panic buying spree at all!  But wait. Thursday is tomorrow! 
      FFS. Just celebrating Trump not pushing the button and now this to deal with. Does it ever end?

      Government can stop this but they won’t. People out there are struggling to fill cars with diesel and tanks with heating oil. Martin says he is in dialogue with proper organisations but nothing has changed. They brought down the price of fuel but its back now where it was. Nothing in this country will change unless somebody does something. Maybe the argument is that its the wrong way to go about it but this is people’s businesses and livelihoods that depend on diesel. And the knock on affect of it is gna be shown in the price of food on peoples table 2 or 3 months down the line.

      Activism being allowed to impact government machinery is so Irish.

      And if it’s protest, this can’t be called peaceful.

    22. sean_0 on

      When are we going to acknowledge the fact that this protest is heavily organised and coordinated by the far right.

      All of the messaging on social media is repeating far right rhetoric. Calling themselves “patriots”, “Ireland for the Irish”

      Some of the high profile organisers are literally MAGA supporters.

      The Garda can’t legally chase scramblers – what chance have they got in clearing the streets

    24. ZeusMcPain on

      Send in the army with tear gas and rubber bullets – if your industry is no longer viable – get a new job. Don’t disrupt life for everyone else

    27. No-Outside6067 on

      So their problem is a lack of fuel and to improve the situation they’re blocking delivery of fuel?

    29. tightlines89 on

      Bunch of hypocritical arseholes on this forum.

      Love to bitch and moan about the government, but do sweet fuck all about it.

      People out actually doing something about it and this forum goes mental.

      If the protests are disrupting Us, the people then maybe we should add pressure to the government to act. If the hauliers were protesting outside the Dail the government would just continue to ignore things the same way they have ignored everything for the last number of years.

      A bunch of hauliers bringing the country to a standstill isn’t going to stop Trump and his fuckery in Iran that has caused all this. But the government can surely lessen the burden on us. Six years ago they found the money for PUP payments when so many were out of work. They have a surplus every year surely they can do more than dropping 20c ff the price of fuel at the pumps and announcing it a week before so the fuel providers can just raise it 20c in advance rendering the tax reduction worthless. Surely they can put more diplomatic pressure on the US.

      I understand that this is a much more complex issue than I can conceive of, and I feel people who are effected in ways beyond simply being late for work. But I find it refreshing to see a group that is actually taking real action on something for once. Something actually disruptive.
