DUBLIN Ireland (PNN) - April 14, 2026 - The restless natives of the Emerald Isle, facing what would otherwise be universally recognized as an attempted genocide were they not white, have made their largest showing of defiance to date over the last couple of weeks.
Even largely impotent “nationalist” (heavy emphasis on the quotation marks) Sinn Féin has been dragged, kicking and screaming, to at least be seen feigning interest in addressing the concerns of the protesters.
After state stormtroopers failed to quell the uprising over the weekend, the political Party yesterday announced the introduction of a motion of no confidence in the Parliament.
Fresh fuel protests caused traffic disruption across Ireland’s motorways on Monday, despite the government’s half-a-billion-euro package to address rising costs.
While blockades at fuel depots and Ireland’s only oil refinery were lifted, smaller protests continued on motorways near Dublin. A Facebook page, a source of protest information, posted conflicting messages on Sunday night, suggesting both continued action on Monday and that “all protestors and Gardai go home.”
The seventh day of disruption on Monday comes as the government faces a motion of no confidence in the Irish Parliament on Tuesday.
The main opposition Party Sinn Fein is to table the motion criticizing the government for not reconvening the Dail last week and not engaging directly with the protesters, while also calling on the government to take the “maximum action necessary” to cut fuel prices.
Sinn Féin finance spokesman Pearse Doherty said regarding the protests and the motion of no confidence, “Yes, it was about petrol, diesel, home heating oil, but it was also about all the other pressures that people are feeling - whether it’s energy costs, groceries, rents that continue to go up, and basically a tipping point to which the government isn’t listening, that we needed something to happen in terms of (a) cost (of) living package.”
What you might notice is conspicuously absent from the Sinn Féin spokesman’s list of popular grievances against the government is the unending waves of illegal invaders with which it has besieged the tiny island for many years.
The illegal invader siege is clearly, if you listen to the Irish on the streets, the enduring, main impetus for the current protests; the fuel supply shock, rather than the underlying cause, is merely the straw that broke the camel’s back, as it were.
How curious that the issue goes entirely glossed over by Sinn Fein.
Then again, why should the Irish expect otherwise from a political Party with this immigration policy?
From Sinn Fein: “Sinn Féin’s approach to migration is informed by our Republican values and principles - equality, economic and social justice, sovereignty, anti-racism and anti-colonialism. It also recognizes both the needs of those seeking international protection and the pressures under which many communities live. Sinn Féin believes that immigration must be managed having regard to the needs of the economy, public services, and our capacity to accommodate and integrate additional people.”
The statement continues, “Sinn Féin’s plan involves a system that works well, works quickly, where rules are applied, where fairness is paramount, and where people are treated with dignity and local communities are treated with respect.”
