The revolution appears to have started here in Ireland as momentum grows for the #YellowVests movement that took France by storm on the run up to Christmas.
Yellow Vests protesters temporarily closed Dublin’s Port Tunnel yesterday afternoon in both directions.
Protesters gathered in the early afternoon at the Custom House Quay area of the city where they attempted to temporarily close the East-Link bridge and block traffic there too.
The protesters’ mission was part of demanding the government make drastic changes for the benefit of Ireland’s future.
The Port Tunnel was closed for health and safety reasons but reopened some time later.
The AA announced on their twitter page that the Port Tunnel is fully working again and that traffic was moving as normal.
No doubt, Leo Varadkar won’t be happy with this but a lot of supporters of the Yellow Vests movement here in Ireland will be absolutely delighted that they’re gathering momentum.
