Gardaí struggle to gag the giggles and repress the forces of mirth

AT least one street was taken over yesterday as several hundred revellers partied in the centre of Dublin.

In the last of a series of protests and parties by radical groups, youths drank and danced as a stereo system blasted out tunes.

Many of those who gathered for the Reclaim the Streets protest were May Day veterans, having attended other events over the weekend.
