The arrest of Ross Lahive
An Irish man was arrested whilst trying to speak to the Taoiseach.
The shocking incident happened in October 2022 but footage of the event has only just emerged.
In the video, Ross Lahive, a representative of the Irish People political party approaches Taoiseach Micheal Martin to ask him some questions.
"Hi how is it going? Can I ask a few questions?" Mr Lahive says.
"We just want to know why you are throwing billions on extended lockdowns? You are throwing billions at bringing unvetted people coming into this country."
"Sorry, sorry, there is a media opportunity.." interrupts a civil servant.
"It's okay, it's okay," says the Taoiseach.
"We have a health crisis..." Mr Lahive continues.
The Taoiseach walks away.
"I have a right to ask questions the media isn't asking," says Mr Lahive.
"Look it's a very sad day will you just leave it?" says the Taoiseach.
"It's a sad day that you don't look after Irish people. These questions need to be asked. Why do we have a housing crisis?" replies Mr Lahive.
"Have some respect," the Taoiseach says.
The Taoiseach is seen having a word in the ear of a tall Guard.
The Garda then approaches Mr Lahive who says:
"You are politicians we don't trust you. The media needs to ask these questions. He has no shame. Don't touch me. He should have respect for the Irish people. Do your jobs, the country is going from bad to worse.
"Is anything going to change? You don't work for the Irish people. We have health crisis, housing , energy, cost of living crisis, I take it personal that you are driving the country into the ground.
"We are being let down very badly here."
"There are good avenues..." says the civil servant.
"There's no avenues. The media is controlled, the politicians are controlled, you aren't working for the Irish people, you're working for the EU and the WEF.
"We don't trust you," replies Mr Lahive.
The Guard approaches again.
"Don't touch me."
"I'm a Guard."
"Who are you working for? You are not working for the people."
Another Guard arrives.
"I'm having a quick word with Micheal. I have real questions for him," says Mr Lahive.
"He's not taking time, he's not going to take questions. He's not going to speak to you. Send him an email," the Guard replies.
"Send him an email? Will that change the situation we are in?"
"I'm not interested."
"Exactly, we need Gardai that are interested."
"I'm going to ask you to move over there," says the Guard.
"You can ask me, this is a free country, I have every right to be here, I am not doing anything wrong."
"Ross, this is invitation only," says the Guard.
"You can't force me, what are you going to do, arrest me?"
"You are under arrest...."
The Guard reads the Irish man his rights.
Mr Lahive asks for the Guards name.
"We will process you above and I will give you all the details," he responds.
"This is a disgrace," says Mr Lahive.
"Miss I do not consent you recording me," says the Guard.
"This is what happens when you stand up and ask serious questions, they don't want serious questions," Mr Lahive adds.
The footage goes dead.
