There’s been talk of housing migrants in a disused factory in Coolock, a working class suburb in north Dublin, for the past few months. Residents have been camped outside the factory to stop access for about 3.5 months now, but in the dead of night on Monday morning the Garda (police) tried to forcefully clear the protest. This led to a riot that only lasted a day.
To stop a repeat, the Garda erected large concrete barriers so the protestors couldn’t get into the site. The factory is now on fire (obviously!) and thanks to the large concrete barriers the fire brigade can’t get in to put out! This could be the most Irish thing ever!
