600+ at anti - bailout demo.
Couple of dozen tried to storm the Dail.
Garda drew their batons.
One report:
"Apparently the cops were really heavy handed and went in full force with batons. A number of people left with blood pumping out of them, but no one was hospitalised as far as I know."

"At Dail gate was unguarded so march enter 5 or so feet Gardai tried and failed to push people out then attacked with batons some hit on head"
"A group of demonstrators are protesting outside the Dáil on Kildare Street.
Gardaí say there was an earlier attempt by some members of the group to enter through the main gates but they were removed.
The gates have now been locked. No one was arrested."

"Some Gardai drew batons and some protesters were injured. The protest went on peacefully."
Parliament Stormed In Bank Protest
"Protesters have stormed the Irish parliament during a march against government plans to inject billions of euros into the country's banks.
Dozens of people broke away from the demonstration and ran at the gates of Leinster House, the parliament's main building.
They wrestled with police as officers tried to force them back and secure the gate.
At least one man suffered a head injury during the scuffles with organisers appealing for calm."
