Government wants probe into media coverage of fuel protests; Garda Commissioner 'absolutely appalled' by threats to gardai
"This protest is out of my hands, it escalated to somewhat so big, and I don't know where it's going to end, but it's the Government's fault."
"Nobody knows what the plan is, that's being straight out there."
"I have no control over it, and that's exactly where I'm coming from."
"The people of the island of Ireland have no confidence in this Government anymore."
Protests in Dublin have surged beyond organizers' expectations, with a spokesperson admitting a loss of control over the situation. John Dallon, a farmer at the protest, noted that while they achieved small victories, the movement has grown significantly. He expressed that public anger indicates a lack of confidence in the Government. Although blockades at fuel depots and the oil refinery have been lifted, traffic disruptions persist in various parts of the country due to ongoing protests.
