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!

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!

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.

This movement should include every single person who has been let down by the Irish Government, unfortunately the majority refuse to act.
