Britain's North Sea could have 14 billion barrels of oil and gas ? three times what the Government reckons ? but sky-high taxes and drilling bans are leaving it in the ground while jobs and cash go begging.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6the wind was knocked out of your sails last night, cold and wet ye all retreat back into the darkness! Doubtful that ye will have the numbers on monday to start another fight that you can't win... I was going to turn up, but why bother now? fair play to the Gardai they proved ye all wrong .. peaceful protest me arse. should anyone protest ..enjoy cloverhill I hear the cells are nice and warm.
Sounds like someone had a good dose of the mainstream media reporting!
'q ball' you nonce, the crowd at Navan Rd weren't a real threat at all, the police advanced in on the retreating crowd to make themselves look good..perhaps u didn't see when they were threatening local residents, lynching reporters and peaceful protestors? Hmm cos maybe you weren't there like some of us, seeing (and recording) the true events as they unfold.
And besides, this Reclaim the Streets party isn't a fight... just something to do on a lazy afternoon
I've just heard that the WATER CANNON will be back - at the Ambassador today - so watch out folks. I'd doubt it they will be used, though, just a show of strength to put us off.
Ok so q man may not have been in there but I was. And at a supposedly peaceful protest how come gardai were injured? 'Friendly fire' just don't happen here. They did a great job which was the only reason things didn't get worse.
Well a big thank you to everybody...

and all the rest...together you persuaded us to stay at home.
Collectively you silenced this household's objection to the kind of EU we're having foisted upon us by corporate interests and self-interested politicians and bureaucrats.
None of you unequivocally protected our right to partake in peaceful protest and none of the protestors I have heard on air have had the balls to condemn the idiocy at the Ashtown Gate.
And as for the protest 'movement', just listen to yourselves - get it right for the Bush visit, or blow the protest. Or just maybe you should consider staying at home yourselves.
Exactly "Q Man".. were you there? No. So keep your mouth shut, and have a bit of respect for the people at Clover Hill, most of whom were dragged in for no good reason. What were you reading, The Star? None of the aggressive protesters were actually arrested becasue the Gardaí didn't go to the trouble of doing their jobs properly (yet again).
