Protest (PT. 8)
Irish fishermen in protest to rising fuel prices and imported cheaper fish have begun to protest by blocking Cork and Dublin ports. They argue that with the rising cost of diesel they can not compete with many of their European counterparts whose Governments have provided fuel subsidies. This has therefore resulted in Irish fishermen being unable to provide their fish at a lower price to compete. They also have been joined by their European counterparts in blocking the ports who are also in protest over the rising cost of fuel!
