Students protest against return of fees
The march, which brought Dublin’s city centre to a standstill, proceeded from Parnell Square to Leinster House where the students were addressed by Union of Students of Ireland president Shane Kelly and opposition TDs.
In a colourful protest, students carried placards with witty slogans, banged drums and blew whistles. Despite a heavy Garda presence, the protest passed off peacefully and without incident.
