Dancing to a different tune: ‘Disco’ shines light on agenda of hate

Mike Pence loves Ireland and why wouldn’t he? Back home, nobody pays him a blind bit of notice as he cowers in the shadow of Donald Trump. He drops in here for a flying visit and he’s a big deal with everybody.

Yesterday, outside a vacant Leinster House there was a protest with a difference against the US vice president’s arrival among us. Amnesty International organised a “disco” on the steps of the seat of government. They came and danced the lunchtime away as a means of opposing what some would describe asMr Pence’s agenda of hate.
