There’s nothing like a mass protest to bring out the jokers and comedians in Ireland and today they produced some brilliant banners for the protest against water charges in Dublin.
The protest took place on Merrion Square and thousands of people turned out to vent their anger at the water charges due to be brought in by the Irish Government.
There was plenty of music and activities on show to entertain the crowds who travelled to the capital from all corners of the country (and the world) to voice their opposition.
But, for those whose voice wasn’t enough, they had these very creative banners with our personal favourite being the very clever Dumb and Dumber reference about Enda Kenny and Joan Burton. We really do love that film…

Although some may need to work on their spelling, but we’re sure ‘Edna’ got the point…
