Right2Water warns Government that demonstrations will continue

Right2Water protestors have warned the Government the campaign against the charges will continue after tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets in the fifth major demonstration against the utility.

Among them were 23 protesters facing charges over incidents in Jobstown, Tallaght in Dublin last November when Tánaiste Joan Burton was forced to remain in her car for more than two hours after being prevented from leaving a graduation ceremony.

The Right2Water group, which organised the weekend march in Dublin, estimated about 80,000 protesters turned out.
