Two Extinction Rebellion activists have been remanded on strict bail terms after a court heard they travelled from Cork to Dublin to carry out a live-streamed graffiti attack at the Department of Foreign Affairs.
Paint was splattered on the front of the building and graffiti saying “no more empty promises” sprayed across the building’s entrance which could cost thousands of euro to fix. However, former film student Ms Murphy refused to sign the bail bond agreeing to those terms. She was remanded in custody, with consent to bail, to appear again on Thursday.
The court heard the incident at 1.20pm on Friday was filmed and live-streamed on the Extinction Rebellion Cork’s Facebook page. It has been viewed thousands of time, the judge was told.Garda Cummins said it was alleged that the incident was premeditated and pro-longed attack lasting 12 minutes. She had health problems including depression, the court was told. Ms Kelly also said her client would undertake to turn up to court for her next hearing.
Extinct them out to an island off the west coast.
What will the carbon footprint be when it comes to cleaning up this vandalism? Carbon fume pressure washers and chemicals.
Now watch the Establisment media spin this law breaking as enlightenment.
If they're on any state benefits surely a 'contribution' from that income is required. After all, it's taxpayers money to fix the problem. Weekly cuts in allowance would soon make people think. Being hurt in the pocket is the hardest punishment... I'm sure the majority want that.
