There was a reasonable turnout at Saturday's Water Charges protest in Dublin. There were two main assembly points, Christchurch and Connolly station and both groups met up on O'Connell street outside the GPO where the speeches were given and crowd generally entertained with music at the start and end. There are other protests simultaneously around the country in Limerick, Cork, Galway, Letterkenny, Wicklow, Carlow, Sligo, Cavan and Meath. The Right2Water campaign were saying there were several thousands at each of these so when the grand total is added it does show the campaign is still very much alive and well. |

Great to see that this is still very much a 'live' issue - I wasn't at the protest in Dublin city centre, but I'm glad to say that myself and my three daughters took part on that day (23rd January 2016) in the anti-double-water tax protest outside the hotel in Citywest, Dublin, where Fine Gael where holding their annual convention (Ard Fheis). We were proud to stand with about 500 other protesters. Well done to all of us!
