Water Protesters on Hunger Strike – Ex Anglo Bankster Taps Golden Circle
Modern Ireland’s ‘Ancien Régime’ is manifesting. Proposed airport style security for parliament building (Leinster House) will see visitors scanned and x-rayed before entry. Double layers of huge fencing were mounted around the venue for ruling party Fine Gael’s Ard Fheis (national Rally) in the Prime Minister’s hometown of Castlebar. Bus loads of protesters from Mayo and surrounding counties demonstrated outside. Catherine Byrne TD (Fine Gael) suggested that Irish people who protest austerity should not be allowed to carry our national flag. The Tricolour was presented as a gift in 1848 to Thomas Francis Meagher from a small group of French women sympathetic to the Irish cause. (Nowadays it’s only for the bankster compliant to use). Ms.Byrne’s statement has gone down like a rat sandwich across social media. In leafy Irish suburbs it’s become de rigeur to more or less enslave au pairs. I guess Fine Gael will allow these families to raise the Tricolour. An avalanche of repossessions are to take place over the next 24 months with US Funds eying up the loan book.
Incarcerated last week, the jailed water protesters (who breached a 20m court order while peacefully protesting) are reportedly under a complete lock down (solitary).They have been moved to the high security prison normally reserved for rapists, pedophiles and murderers. Three are now on hunger strike, with Derek Byrne refusing fluids from tomorrow, until they are moved back to Mountjoy, (where their families can more easily visit them) . They say they are willing to die. Yesterday thousands of people, in support of ‘The Five’, took to the streets of Dublin marching from the Irish Central Bank to Mountjoy prison. In a speech Paul Murphy TD told them that ‘the “establishment” was terrified of the anti-water charges movement and was using all “the tools they have” to counter it.“They have the guards. They have the courts. They have the Denis-O’Brien-owned media. They have the Late Late Show.”’ (Kitty Holland Irish Times).
Meanwhile in the US Bankster David Drumm (Anglo Irish Bank), whose actions precipitated the misery foisted on the ordinary people of Ireland, is tapping a new golden circle of ex clients to fund his extradition fight against possible criminal charges. Stories below.
‘The Sunday Business Post has confirmed that Drumm is seeking to raise $250,000 from ten former clients of the bank in order to pay for his living expenses and legal costs as he fights both his bankruptcy appeal and potential extradition hearings.’
