Prankster campaigns door-to-door 'promoting' more taxes

The water charges. Aren't they great, lads?

Irish YouTuber Buachaill set out to prank residents in this electoral campaign skit - where he goes around promoting how great the water charge and new taxes are.

It does not go well. You're just waiting for someone to run out of patience.

Telling residents about the planned 5% "chimney tax"?: "Get out that gate before I f***** stab ya!"

And he even snuck in a reference to Enda's recent faux-pas in telling a woman she's not even from Galway.

Now, it goes without saying that these gentlemen are not actually affiliated with Fine Gael. Just in case there was any confusion.

It looks like Buachaill may have taken some inspiration from The Fear's absolutely classic water meter installation prank of last year, which saw Jennifer Maguire fleeing from a knife-wielding resident.
