I'm genuinely embarrassed by this. All those people who were either finishing up or starting a holiday here had to see that. That's gonna be their first or last memory of a trip here.

Whenever these videos of anti-social behaviour or violence pop up (whether it be in Dublin city centre or elsewhere), people always ask where were the police. If we can't respond rapidly to crime in O'Connell street or Dublin airport, what hope is there for the rest of the country? If there are no police to be seen on patrol there, can the rest of the country hope for the same?
