Well that’s obvious. Government ain’t listening with a normal protest, so riots was going to happen. It’s happening in other countries, it was only a matter of time before it started in Ireland. Dublin is a kip but this has been building for years. The government have not done **** to help make Dublin a better or safe place, and they certainly aren’t listening to people not wanting more immigrants. This won’t be the last of it.

This wasn’t a riot based on what happened. It was opportunistic vandalism and looting. What don’t you get?

Ireland is not the wealthiest country in the world. It’s a tax haven which inflates the wealth. 

Sis it has the 8th best quality of living in the world and is extremely wealthy.

It was supposed to be. There will always be scumbags who take it too far. They seen what happens in France and just did the same.  Either way, the government don’t listen to peaceful protests or like what happened last night. They are to blame here. Dublin has been a kip for years but they refused to listen about safety.

No it never started like that. It was all young hooligans that have accumulated in city centre. They’re homeless, drug addicts, drinking on the quays off their social benefits. Ridiculous.

Are you happy that dirty far right hooligans destroyed Dublin? Or what’s your POV here?

Ireland is in severe lack of a hard right political party. I guess now it will get one.

They already have one, National Party, and sis, they’re very vocal about their leanings and they’re already blacklisted as a white supremacist party. They’re anti-immigration, anti-abortion and anti-LGBTQ, very similar to Aontù here in the North, the National Party’s slogan is Forward and To The Right! so they’re not hiding that they’re far right. Irish Freedom Party is even worse with regards to LGBTQ+ rights, their president opposes vaccine mandates and referred to trans women with very transphobic slurs.

Mess, I found a National Party poster in my town scratched out and it says said “32 counties, not 32 genders”
