Today we are coming to you from O’Connell Street in a gridlocked Dublin city centre.

Taoiseach Micheál Martin has described the action as “national sabotage”, while insisting that “a gun won’t be put” to the head of the Government. As talk of Defence Forces deployment mounts, how much longer will this protest last?
