Cheeky teen tells water protesters to 'pay their bills'

Yesterday, thousands of people across the country took to the streets to protest against water charges. As we all know, it’s an issue that many feel very strongly about.

Jamie Harrington from Ballymun posted this video to Facebook with the caption "Just pay your water bills for Jaysus sake. This video was a joke."

It shows him walking through the protest in Dublin and shouting at people to pay their bill and to ’leave Joan alone’.

A bold move.

Although you might think that wouldn’t have gone down too well, it seems most people recognised that Jamie was only messing.

The video has gone viral - it’s been watched over 300,000 times since being uploaded yesterday and has been shared by almost 2,000 people.

And this isn’t the first time Jamie has caused a stir online - last year, he was featured on the Humans of Dublin Facebook page and told the amazing story of how he saved a stranger’s life.

A must-read, if you haven’t already.
