A Possible Energy Shutdown?

[Wolf]

Do you enjoy, being wrong about everything ? !

You are Ireland's Rory Stewart ~ Rory Stewart is a Gob-shite in the UK who is wrong about everything ! ! !

It's just.....Pervert, a full-time bootlicker.
Poor thing was denied any attention as a sprog, then it found out its daddy was an air hostess!!

Well, we here are living in a captive economy lets face it,,,An island located off a bigger island.

A lot of panic buying has emptied the pumps around these parts.

Yea, I just top up all my vehicles every Friday.
Kerosene is a ridiculous price today.
More taxes for the dirt in Da Eireann to squander on imported dregs I suppose.

Big Jim, Slimy Simon and Micky Martin called the Defence Forces out yesterday at 8.30am.

Still no sign of them, a day and a half later.

Dear duly rigged elected politicians: Can you not take a hint? MSM, cops and soldiers all hate you. They no longer obey your orders. Time to head to the border?

MSM lets protestors taunt the State: "If they send the Army, they will join us.:"

Enniskillen joining in at 4.00pm, apparently. Ulster also says no.

There is a feel of 1916 of this, a small bunch of everyday honest people, pushed to the edge, versus a brutal, uncaring elites, backed on by comfortably well off boomers. But there's a difference, this protest, despite the corrupt media's protrayal, is supported by the majority, if the army is ordered by MM to remove the protestors and they refuse, MM will probably ask the British Army to help him, and let's be honest, the political class is so out of touch with the public, would that surprise anyone. All the government had to do was to temporarily cut fuel tax until oil prices stabilize, but that would mean less tax for the NGO sector and ipas accommodation owners, hence the refusal. This will end badly for many political parties. Wonder how a woke traitor like Christy Moore feels, years gone by he would be with the protestors, now he stands with the elite

Half the population of Ireland will be asking who the hell is Tommy Robinson!

The Streisand effect.
They know now.

Gardai Sicini still allowing protests

I took a stroll down to O'Connell Street after work yesterday to see what was happening, and spoke to a number of the protestors. All very nice people, and absolutely determined that they were going nowhere.

A very surreal experience, seeing O'Connell Street at a standstill. And actually vey pleasant, without the noise and chaos that cars bring.

The only issue was the lack of diversity on display. Very pale, male and stale. Hopefully this will be addressed going forward.

What need is there for the carbon tax now? It's widely recognised as a total scam, but as always it's the money that counts.

 

[Mad as Fish]

Anyone hear of filling stations running out of petrol or diesel yet? Today I heard there was no diesel to be got in Ballaghaderreen, which has I think two filling stations. There was no diesel in nearby Ballinlough either, which only has the one station.
I may actually have to travel through Ballaghaderreen tomorrow so I might check it out.

Queuing for fuel right now, I think it's the first time ever in nearly 50 years of motoring!

Like ConVid, it was always a scam.
Always follow the money.

Cutting fuel taxes can be done -

Several EU countries cuts taxes to offset rising fuel prices. Romania is still considering options

Seven EU countries, as well as other European nations outside the Union, have already decided to implement substantial tax cuts—excise taxes and VAT—to limit the impact of the fuel crisis on their economies and consumers.

Oh dear. Gardai tooling up for violence in Cork oil refinery. Fifty cops there already and they have checkpoints stopping people. Time for a tactical retreat? Keep the protest, but let the stuff through. If the cops are under direct orders to batter people, they will probably do it.

 

[SeekTheFairLand]

If we have learned anything from recent history is that the managerial state controls both sides of the narratives in any of these issues.

Already representatives of the industries are in meeting with the government. When did this ever happen with people protesting about lock-downs, vaccine passports and the endless plantation?

The hauliers and farmers will get a carved out deal, a mitigation from carbon taxes or some form of financial easement.

It will appear that the 'the People' were answered, whilst in reality the Managerial State will have satisfied a client group who the government control and rely on.

And 'the People' who reckon this is another 1916 will be left and dry with the farmers and lorry men safely in the government coalition of the willing, sucking off the teat of 'special accommodation'

 

[scolairebocht]

You always have to be a bit suspicious I agree, but at the same time the people protesting now are very genuine and I don't think are looking for a sweetheart deal only for themselves.

The suspicion for me is this puts the army and the Gardai in explicit control of the energy supply network, just as we enter the energy lockdown, and with a ready excuse for being there. That bit raises my eyebrows...

An Update from Ireland’s Color Revolution​

From the Theatre of the Absurd, to the 15-Minute City Green Light Approval​

Thomas Sheridan
Apr 10, 2026



https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch...bedab-b655-415a-b104-01004209467a_284x180.png

There are always two factors at play during a color revolution. The first is bizarre behaviour, which can resemble surreal performance art events happening in public spaces for no reason. The second is the government’s clandestine actions behind the scenes while the population is occupied with the chaos and seeking quick dopamine fixes.
During the fuel protests, after decades of delays, a substantial number of multi-billion-euro projects were approved for Galway all at once. Including a new deep water dock and a new train station much larger than the present one. This initiative aims to transform Galway into a “smart, livable city.” Similar project happening in Cork and Waterford. One notable project for Galway included an orbital motorway, which will effectively serve as a barrier for the city. The Smart-City Walls. This motorway will mark a boundary; if residents cross it, they may face carbon fines and other regulations. This is but a sample of the hundreds of ‘Great Reset’ rubber-stamping jobs the politicans will be racing through until the current Fuel Protest Color Revolution is predictably completed.

Yes he is playing guitar on a coffin as part of a ‘fuel protest’. Irish cities are currently filled with this classic Color Revolution non-linear psychological warfare, which also includes kids driving around in very expensive mini electric trucks in order to burlesque the population.​

These approvals were granted at a time when everyone was distracted by large tractors parading through the city streets.

 

[Diarmuid]

Sheridan has a point. They love distracting us. And they have lots to distract us about. Shannon Airport is presumably still being used to facilitate the israeli annexation of southern Leb. And they are rolling out the 5G mobile phone masts.

It was odd that the Ministers would get so aggressive and insulting with the fuel protests. Almost as if they wanted to provoke us as much as possible.

I agree that the vast majority of protestors are genuine.

Street theatre is good way to make a point. You can reach thousands in a busy place.

Yea but trying to be the best boy in class means Paddy won't do it.
I mean, look at Poland when it comes to importing sand nig gers and look at Ireland.
The class lickarse, no wonder Pervert always tows the government line.

The sad bastards in FFG are now trying to blackmail the grass roots protesters and are still refusing to meet with them.
This is extraordinary stuff from this power hungry gang of corrupt politicians running the country on the behalf of their handlers.

No more supports until blockade ends, meeting told

Ministers have said that no further package of support measures will be announced until fuel protesters end their blockades around the country.

I naively thought there'd talks and agreements made. They got their marching orders from on high and will see this country burn. Where I am all gas stations are empty since yesterday. Every one from here to the county town where there is a little left. From my house that's a good 60 kms. I'll be frank, they effectively shut us down overnight. A very valuable lesson for my future prepping efforts. Make no mistake this will cost lives in rural areas as it is colder than a witch's teat, going down to zero. In April. I can get to work maybe 3 times more, then not, and hoping no one dips my tank..
That entire shower of traitors - are they still on Easter break? Dunno...needs to rot on Spike Island on bread and water.
Next week businesses will close and thousands report to the dole office. The absolute bastards. I am so furious I could spit.
And another thing: there are hundreds of tourist with no idea they will be stranded on some mountain as there is no fuel, not all of them have evs

When they do cut the fuel tax, and they will cave in, they are going to look dumb as fcuk. Martin needs to resign ASAP, I think we may see a heave against him in the coming days, only problem is Jim "far right" O'Callaghan made a complete and utter twat of himself so who the next ff leader is, who knows, maybe Muslim lou MacDonald will rejoin ff again and lead them, it's all bollix

If FF/FG aren't finished after this we deserve everything that's coming. The problem as ever is that there is no credible opposition..Who? Barrett? Unelectable. RTE brainwashing has done a thorough job on the people.
