Fuel protests are completely ‘unacceptable and irresponsible’, says Chambers




Minister for Public Expenditure Jack Chambers has described the ongoing fuel protests as “unacceptable and irresponsible,” reports Breaking News.

Speaking to reporters at Government Buildings on Wednesday morning, Jack Chambers said: “I think some of the protests we’ve seen today are completely unacceptable and irresponsible, reports Breaking News.

“They’re undermining business in our city and across the country.”

Responding to reports that demonstrators had blocked a fuel terminal, he said the action was “reckless in the extreme, and they should stand down their protest,” reports Breaking News.

He stated that the Government maintains “constant and regular engagement with the representative groups”, including the Irish Road Haulage Association.

When asked whether the gardaí should move in to clear protesters blocking O’Connell Bridge in Dublin city centre, Chambers said: “They know how to manage protest,” reports Breaking News.
