How is the virus faring out in Africa African Gael or are you in the UK? Just wondering how we are doing compared to other parts of the particular world?

Were those who marched in the water charges protests clowns? I think it is a terrible thing to say calling them clowns and loonies. And very un Gael like

No idea, but i'd say it's probably better than in Cavan anyway, wasn't that one of the worst spots in Europe. As far as the UK is concerned, why don't you just look out your window, or ask your neighbour, seeing that you are next door to the UK.

Why have you your name like this so? Very misleading- it was a genuine question- no need to get so bold. Some people seem very touchy. I am sorry if I offended you.

Gee Sorry. Asked a genuine question from what I thought to be a genuine poster and you get scolded and get smart comments back. Don't know why people cannot be civil. Maybe I am naive in that I assumed all people actually told the truth on here and put down correct locations etc. Obviously not.

Might be something to do with your condescending tone . If after over a year of COVID being the only story in the world , you still don't know what's going on , then I'm afraid it's unlikely you'll learn much with a few questions on here.

Condescending tone?? What are you on about? Where was I condescending? Please point it out. Again I am being genuine. I certainly didn't notice anything remotely condescending in my "tone" (even though it's a written format so don't know how you made out I had any type of tone at all)

By the way I meant how are restrictions being implemented, is sport at local levels being played, is it being policed properly etc. I was not looking for a national update- if you were living in another country we might have been able to learn from what they were doing there!! Wondering if GAA could learn from it so we could do something similar here. Don't know why you think I was being condescending

It wasn't against the law to congregate at a water charge protest, but when we are dealing with a virus which is highly contagious and has already killed thousands of Irish people, then yes they are selfish heedless clowns who take part in these protests. How dare anyone think they have a right to put peoples lives in danger. Horrible people.

It isn't against the law to hold a protest currently either. Shur any time one of us leaves our houses we are putting other people's lives in danger, pawing at food in supermarkets etc. I won't be codded in this matter.

Unfortunately not everyone wants to don the green jersey and help Ireland's fight against covid. Most of us are doing our patriotic best to support our health services but others are mé féiners and simply couldn't care less. I see it everyday now. What are the odds on another spike after the 17th?
scrub up, wear a mask, socially distance and God bless our health care workers

"The amended Health Act 1947 (Section 31A - Temporary Restrictions) (Covid-19)
Regulations 2020 (S.I. No. 121 of 2020) (the Regulations) have imposed significant limits

Protest away on your own if you feel so strongly about it. I don't know where you shop, if people are pawing at food, but in any case if you wash your hands regularly and obviously wash any food that needs to be washed before consumption, then you will be fine. I assumed everyone knew that at this stage.

And by the way going to shop for food is an essential journey, scurrying off to Dublin protesting and/or assaulting Gardai and others is not. Those yobs are lucky they are in a soft liberal country, or they'd be battered off the streets by the police.

I am not going to protest but it is other people's own business what they do once they are within their 5km and not too close to anybody else in their vicinity, two metres being the advised distance by Simon Harris, that is 200cm or almost 79 inches away in old money. And of course following guidance from the gardai isn't it.
You didn't really point out anything in quoting that statutory instrument.
It isn't easy to wash a bottle of cooolllaa or a box of frozen chicken nuggeys.

Well nobody should be battered off the street in any circumstance, this isn't the USSR. But neither should the guards be facing violent demonstrators. On that we can agree. And there is a difference i assume between a planned protest and an impromptu one currently, I assume planned protests are not allowed.
