    Pickets and protests for the FF Ard Fheis

    Perhaps a large protest at City West during the time of the FF Ard Fheis. It might set the cat among the pigeons.

    Why not picket the annual shin dig?

    It could be funny.

    It would be far from the first time. But what exactly would it achieve?

    Great idea - get the faces of all the crooks scurrying in in the public domain and let those inside know the public knows who they are and is going to hold thme to account - the person who goes to these things and claps and shouts and then fools themself that as they are not personally lining their pockets they are hoenst is wrong. By saying nothing to those on the platform who have bled the country dry and run it into the ground they are as guilty.

    Unfortunately, by the time it comes around, we won't be able to afford the rotten tomatoes

    It would of course be do-able if even 1% of the population of Dublin turned up ... that'd be at least 10000 protestors.

    Give them a slow hand clap when entering the Ard Fheis.

    Then periodically shout Boooooooooo during the Leaders Speech ... that'd have an effect all right

    Rather pointless. Why not protest out side bankers meetings? Developer meetings? And protest outside every god dam union building?

    Funny that considering I've yet to meet a banker or a developer at an Ard Fheis and I've been to a fair few.
