Well, it's a good question.

They threatened it and it looked as if it was going to happen.

And then once they got the public reaction, they quickly dropped it.

They quietly dropped it.

There was to be a meeting today where the protest spokespeople were to attend with the sort of affinity groups like the Farmers Association and the Hoylers Association.

They're all part of the bubble, the NGO bubble around Parliament today.

And they turned up and they were denied access.

And meanwhile, as I said, the public guard units have arrived down at the refinery.

So there's going to be a problem here because the scale of the blockade and the scale of it across the country is such that the state itself isn't equipped to deal with the scale.

And so there's a standoff now between the state and the people.

This has been coming a long time, Steve.

This has been bubbling away underneath the surface.

The speed at which it's happened has caught everybody by surprise, and I include myself in that, even though I was down talking to them in O'Connell Street there in the clip that you showed, so that they'd have a chance to talk directly to the Irish nation, which predates the state.

The problem we've got here, which is a really remarkable problem,

is that the state itself, which is behaving within this bubble, it's taking 80% of its legislation from Brussels.

It's surrounded by a pack of NGOs, which has quadrupled in size since the global financial crisis to 33,000.

And what the state has now done is that it quietly, just at the start of the year, since the last time we spoke, the state doubled its grant assistance, its money, its free money, to commercial media in Ireland to 15 million.

Multiply that by 60 to bring it to United States standards.

So the mainstream media itself is playing the same tune that the state will play.

That's what's going on there.
