Protesters gather outside Taoiseach Leo Varadkar's home
Protesters who gathered outside Taoiseach Leo Varadkar’s home have stated that they will bring their demonstrations to other politicians’ houses.
It comes amid calls for legislation to stop protests outside public representatives' homes just days after People Before Profit's Paul Murphy’s residence was targeted by a group of far-right protesters.
A group calling themselves 'ICT' or 'Irish Communities Together' have now posted a photograph showing a small group of protesters gathered outside the home the Taoiseach shares with partner Matt Barrett over the May Bank Holiday weekend. There were a number of children in the photo.
Some members of the group held a flag that contained several slogans. This included the group name "Irish Communities Together Tallaght '' and the phrase "concerned communities families and parents."
It also said, "We represent the 90%". It did not, however, state what 90% of people it referred to.
A caption accompanying the TikTok read: "ICT paid a visit to one of Leo’s house’s [sic] today. Question is, which TD is next for a visit."
There were several comments on the video from other people calling for other politicians' homes to be protested. Names of several prominent TDs were mentioned.
A second video posted on the TikTok page showed three flags placed on the fence outside the Taoiseach’s home. The caption on that video read: "A day out at Leo’s gaff." Read More…
