Jobstown Protest Omission edit

Hello Wikipedians

I can't help but notice there is absolutely no mention of the Jobstown protest and subsequent court case here, wherin the car carrying Joan Burton was delayed by water charges protesters, and she pressed charges of false imprisonment. I'm not nearly un-biased enough to write a section on it myself, but its omission seems at best remiss, at worst highly partisan. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.27.104.164 (talk) 12:06, 29 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Ridiculous stuff, this event is a part of Burton's legacy. Can't say it was her fault, but the whole matter was handled badly, and tarnished her image, and she did give evidence, which failed to convince a jury.95.25.69.175 (talk) 15:14, 4 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
