Farmers, hauliers and ordinary workers have taken to the streets across Ireland because they simply cannot afford to keep going. The government and media are beginning to paint them as the villains — but these are the people who keep this country moving.

Here's the reality: if fuel costs €1, the government adds €1.20 on top of that in taxes. That's a 120% markup on a product nobody can live without.

This fund will go directly towards sending food and hot drinks to protesters across Dublin, Cork, Galway and beyond — a simple way to show them the country has their back.

Every cent goes to local cafés and bakeries delivering to protesters.
