Article 19 pf the International Covenant of Civil and Political Rights assures citizens of freedom of expression and opinion. Holding a banner with a message is an act of freedom of expression. Indeed bringing a lorry right up to the gates of Leinster House was not a criminal act because it was seen as an act of freedom of expression so the Court declared in the last few days. The criminal act could be the forcible removal of someone's property.

Perhaps it is a time for all agents of the State, public and private to have a review of human rights instruments of the UN to which Ireland is legally committed.
