Thousands of people marched supporting #OccupyDameStreet and Real Democracy Now! Ireland from the Garden of Remembrance to the site of the ongoing occupation at the Central Bank plaza on Dame street on Saturday 22nd of October. We will again gather at 2pm at the Garden of Remembrance on 29th of October and march to the site of the Dame Street occupation.
Stop The Billion Dollar Heist:
On November 2nd
2011, next Wednesday, a $1,000,000,000 bond comes due at Anglo Irish
Bank. This bond is unsecured, unguaranteed, a bond we have absolutely no
obligation to pay.

We call on supporters of #OccupyDameStreet to spread the word about
this widely. The media will not do it for us. Lets become our own media
and grow this movement. We are the 99%. We have the power. We need to
exercise it.
No drink, no drugs, no party political banners or flags and no violence will also apply to this demonstration.

Rocky Road to Dublin
Let's stop the payment of 730,000,000 apparently due to be paid to the bond holders of the former Anglo Irish Bank on 5th November 2011. This is money that we, the Irish People do not owe but money that was recklessly guaranteed by an irresponsible government to private speculators i.e. bondholders. The same bondholders never shared their gains with us when their gambles profited, we should not be punished for their losses. We did not take that risk, we should not be forced to suffer for other peoples' speculation. March from Garden of Remembrance with #occupydamestreet on Saturday at 2pm. More events planned for early next week.
Banks never share profits, we wont share their losses!
