Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

I was, yeah.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

I was.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

I was kind of up there on the front lines there all week.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

So we were, we kind of left RD on, and from Navon on...

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

Tuesday morning, so we did early, and kind of went up the road.

Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

And to be honest, the numbers was kind of very, very small and we didn't really know.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

I think everyone admits the same thing.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

We were all just winging it up the road to do a kind of peaceful protest because of the fuel crisis.

Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

And we ended up parked in on O'Connell Street there and there was talks and, how would I call it, speeches and everything there.

So it was around three o'clock.

And after that, then people just went out and peacefully kind of protested on the streets and that like and that.

And the atmosphere was very good and the guards couldn't have been any better all week on O'Connell Street.

Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

I don't know about the rest of the country, but in O'Connell Street, they were absolutely top class the whole week up until probably the very day in debt when everyone was moved.

Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

Like, you know, and the thing on that is, I think if that actually come to the people and just say, here, do you know what, you need to get out of here or else, I think everyone would have just got up and just walked out, you know.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

You know, it was peaceful, it couldn't mean any more peaceful.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

I think if anyone says different, it's incorrect.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

But basically, look, I'm a silage contractor, so I'm down based in Gaffin, so I'm...

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

paying huge money in finances and everything every month.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

And I think the diesel's just really destroyed.

Liveline
Fuel Protests & the Cost of Living

It broke the camel's back.
