Is the War Against Iran in British or European Interests? Sun Jun 22, 2025 15:00 | Noah Carl
A collapse of the Iranian state would not be in Britain or the rest of Europe's interests. There could be another mass exodus of refugees to Europe?just like the one in 2015, only larger.

People Before Profit Alliance Candidate for Dublin South Central Cllr Joan Collins released the following statement calling for support in tomorrow’s (Wednesday's) protest outside the Dept of Finance @12.30 on Merrion Square.

It appears that the government is lumbering towards a collapse – whether before the new year or in mid to late January. They should go and go now.

They are squatters in Dail Eireann, they squandered the Celtic tiger, cut taxes for the rich and neglected the health service and education. They have lied and cheated their way to keep their grimy hands on the mercs and perks they cherish so much.

Working class people across the country are dying for the chance to throw them out. We’ve been waiting too long.. We need to tell them that they are a poison at the head of the country. Their plans to appease the IMF and the European Central bank will devastate the incomes of ordinary people across the country and will slash the social supports that are desperately needed when thousands are falling out of work.

We need to show our opposition to the cuts. The demonstration on this Saturday 27th November is an opportunity to show that we will not accept the agenda of slash, burn and privatise. A huge militant demonstration will go a long way to getting this rotten government out. It will also show the other political parties that we do not accept the agenda of the IMF.

People Before Profit is calling a protest outside the Department of Finance on Merrion Square on Wednesday 24th November at 12.30 – the day the government publishes their four year budgetary plan. We cannot let them bring in this savage budget without a fight. They must know that we will fight them at every turn.

Cllr. Joan Collins (People Before Profit Alliance) 086 3888151
