Are you coming to the Cost of Living Protest in Dublin?

  1. Have to laugh at the ‘ESB retired staff’ group supporting this.

    They are all on super staff rates and paying a fraction of what the rest of us are for our energy!!

  2. I assume Extinction Rebellion (who are interestingly backing this) will be supporting heavy EU investment in nuclear to get us off our reliance on Russian natural gas (which is currently required to back up our very fluctuant renewable capacity)?

  3. Before the pandemic, there were protests with _thousands_ of people, over the housing crisis.

    We need a return to that, ASAP – and that can be considered an issue, covered by this protest.

  4. I’m happy it has support from a wide range of groups. Please anyone that has even a tiny bit of anger against the system to just show up to this. Bring a friend and do the walk. You don’t have to agree with every point this group represents or with every sponsor of the group just please people show up.

    That post earlier about the French one saying how insane the passiveness of the Irish to take this shit really gave me a boot up the hole.

  5. I saw one happening next Saturday 10th about the cost of living. Wish these small protests communicated with each other to make one really big protest.

  6. Damn, a protest organised more than 2 days ahead of time, on a weekend, about a universally concerning issue, with clean advertising..

    People might actually show up to this one. Good job!

  7. So many people who are doing nothing on this day, won’t show up, yet will complain about the costs. It’s vital we get a huge turnout for it, we could really make a difference if theres as many people here as possible. It’s unfortunate but the only way to really get change is to do this. Rally your family and friends and if they disagree yet are affected by the costs, try explain how important it is

  8. I don’t mean to disregard protests but I think we need to hit them where it really hurts once and for all………in their pockets!

    The UK is running a campaign to sign up a million people who won’t pay the ridiculously hyper inflated energy bills, how about we start there?
