They discuss the skyrocketing diesel prices triggered by the Middle East crisis, the impact on farmers, hauliers, truckers, and everyday Irish families, the nationwide gridlock on the M8, M50 and beyond, fuel shortages hitting service stations, and why these protests have gone viral worldwide.
Why are Cork protesters holding the line at Whitegate? What’s the government’s response? How close is Ireland to a full fuel crisis? This no-holds-barred conversation pulls back the curtain on the National Fuel Protest that has brought the country to a standstill.
