Ireland 2016 The European Rising Part 3 is now online.

Part 3 of my little project researching how Ireland today may need to get some advice from it's past to see a way forward. On February 6th 2013 the Irish Bank and Reconcilliation Bill was rushed through the Dail under emergency legislation. €20 billion is written off our debt but our grandchildren have to foot the bill.

The video looks at the Dail debate, answers one of the questions put by party members opposing the bill by looking at the annual Turning of the Seal at Mansion House which guarantees the sovereignty of the Irish people. The video also looks at the objections of some of the opposing parties to the bill and the protest of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions march which assembled over 100,000 to protest nationwide. The protests were from teachers, nurses and the Guards as well as numerous other trade unions objecting to EU austerity.

Hopefully you will find it interesting and whether you agree or disagree, this could be a very important hiistory lesson.
