Sir, – If the Government backbenchers are correct in their assessment of the demographic of the protesters, ie mainly Sinn Féin and hard-left supporters, it should concern them that in mid-December, these parties are able to convince so many people to travel to Dublin.
If these left-leaning individuals are that committed, it must be a worry to the Government parties.
Perhaps the Government TDs are incorrect; however, if they’re not, it doesn’t augur well for them in the next general election. The next opinion poll will be very interesting. – Yours, etc,
MARTIN O’NEILL,
