Major rally planned as water arrests continue

Anti-water charge campaigners are planning a major demonstration against the ongoing arrests of people involved in the Jobstown protest.

Details of the rally will be announced at a press conference this morning but it is expected to be called for a Saturday afternoon in Dublin city centre in the next couple of weeks.

The move follows three more arrests of people in connection with the protest in Jobstown in Dublin last November where Tánaiste Joan Burton was trapped in her car for two hours after attending an event in a local education centre.
