An anti-lockdown rally has passed off without incident in Cork city centre as a succession of speakers strongly criticised the Government’s response to Covid-19 to enthusiastic applause from a crowd estimated by gardaí to be around 700 strong.

Among the speakers was former Cork County Councillor, Diarmuid O Cadhla, who claimed the Government were lying about the numbers of people dying from Covid-19 and creating fear among people for a lockdown that was unnecessary.

“The banks and big pharma are going to make trillions of dollars in profit from this crisis and we, the people are again being used as cannon fodder to enrich the richest in our society. We need media that tell us the truth and we need journalism that finds out the truth and we are not getting that.”

They better be careful with the Irish as they know how to sustain armed resistance foer generations once they decide to. Lovely people as well with a great sense of humour.
