Government faces no-confidence vote in parliament
Despite extreme government measures to crack down on the native unrest, massive protests — ostensibly over fuel shortages caused by the Middle East war — continued across Ireland over the weekend.

The Irish flags alone — symbols of venomous hate, obviously — would be enough to send in the jackbooted Gardaí to stomp some heads in.
Not that they need a valid excuse.
In response to the unrest, Sinn Féin is floating a no-confidence motion in parliament.
Via The Independent (emphasis added):
Fresh fuel protests caused traffic disruption across Ireland's motorways on Monday, despite the government's half-a-billion-euro package to address rising costs.
While blockades at fuel depots and Ireland’s only oil refinery were lifted, smaller protests continued on motorways near Dublin. A Facebook page, a source of protest information, posted conflicting messages on Sunday night, suggesting both continued action on Monday and that "all protestors and Gardai go home"…
The seventh day of disruption on Monday comes as the government faces a motion of no confidence in the Irish parliament on Tuesday.
The main opposition party Sinn Fein is to table the motion criticising the government for not reconvening the Dail last week and not engaging directly with the protesters, while also calling on the government to take the “maximum action necessary” to cut fuel prices…
[Sinn Fein finance spokesman Pearse Doherty said] “Yes, it was about petrol, diesel, home heating oil, but it was also about all of the other pressures that people are feeling – whether it’s energy costs, whether it’s groceries, whether it’s rents that continue to go up, and basically a tipping point that the government aren’t listening, that we needed something to happen in terms of (a) cost (of) living package.”
*This is how you can know for certain that even Sinn Féin, the ostensibly nationalist party of Ireland with a storied history of resistance to foreign subjugation, is compromised: in the litany of legitimate grievances he rattled off against the government, the spokesman neglected to mention the elephant in the room, which is the migrant invasion.
How could that be an honest oversight?
Perhaps it makes more sense in light of the party’s warm embrace of replacement migration under the guise of “equality, economic and social justice, sovereignty, anti-racism and anti-colonialism.”
Via Sinn Féin (emphasis added):
Sinn Féin’s approach to migration is informed by our Republican values and principles – equality, economic and social justice, sovereignty, anti-racism and anti-colonialism…
It also recognises both the needs of those seeking international protection and the pressures that many communities are under. Sinn Féin believes that immigration must be managed having regard to the needs of the economy, public services and our capacity to accommodate and integrate additional people…
Sinn Féin’s plan involves a system that works well, works quickly, where rules are applied, where fairness is paramount, and where people are treated with dignity and local communities are treated with respect.
Contrary to whatever Irish politicians might claim, wildly abusive migration policy is obviously one of the primary, if not the primary, drivers of this long-simmering populist upset, as evidenced by the “Irish Lives Matter” signs seen throughout the protest.

Another clue for the stalwart patriots of Sinn Féin that the state-facilitated migrant invasion might be the main precipitating factor here is the migrant hotels throughout the country that keep catching on fire somehow.
Irish people are fighting back!
