#OccupyDameStreet is a people’s movement, which stands in solidarity with and is inspired by over 1,400 (Occupytogether.org 15/10/11) sister occupations in the evolving global movement initiated by the people of Iceland, Greece, Spain, and the Arab Spring. We use tactics of non-violence akin to scenes of peaceful resistance in Tahrir Square and Wall Street. This is a diverse people’s initiative, unaffiliated with any political parties. We are the 99%. We stand together against political and economic corruption. We stand for equality and social justice. This is a "leaderless resistance movement" with people of many nationalities, backgrounds, genders and political persuasions.

This movement should include every single person who has been let down by the Irish Government, unfortunately the majority refuse to act.
As a victim of the government helping people to missappropriate money from bank accounts, I hope this goes somewhere, but I do not think Irish people will fight before they have to.
we need more people like you in this country,we do not protest enough,im hope this is the start of something big,no guts no glory.
keep it up . keep it up . keep it up .
let’s get the leaders of all these countries to make practical decisions based on fairness to the ordinary and middle class people .
Keep up the good work! Look forward to joining you on Saturday, wish I could stay over but circumstances don’t allow it although I am following all this very closely, watching the events build up around the world
It is heartening to see so many people join together in their disgust of a system run on corruption and greed!
I have tried to take the day off on Saturday 15th to join ye on Damestreet but my efforts have been unsuccessful, I shall be there in spirit and support and respect all those currently standing up for the rights of the 99% on DameStreet, you are truly our heroes!
