Occupy Dame Street

Was in Dublin the weekend and was talking to an American man who is sleeping out at Dame Street. Saturday evening was very mild but he said the previous week was dreadful. They are delighted with the support they are receiving from the public and they want to continue to highlight the disastrous effect that the banks have had on ordinary people. In Ireland we are worst hit because anyone defaulting on a mortgage will have a destroyed credit rating. They are delighted when the general public talk to them unfortunately, I was rushing elsewhere and had to go. He explained that many students are supporting them by sleeping out and  going to college the next day!
