For the past year and even before then a campaign has been orchestrated and well organised by people who remain in the background. Protest marches and demonstrations have taken place at Shannon Airport which have led on a couple of occasions to the damaging of State property, the breaking down of perimeter fences and attempts by people to get onto the runways causing anxiety to those awaiting flights or meeting relatives arriving at the airport. Demonstrators behaved in ways which led to chaos at the airport and created a real risk of loss of life. What is happening is unimaginable.
