We ask again for your engagement in protest against the planned new law, which aims to introduce so-called on-the-spot fines.
We propose sending protest e-mails to all TD’s and Senators in the Irish Parliament.
The text of the sample e-mail for use as well as the relevant e-mail addresses are attached below and we urge you very strongly to participate in this action. Of course, the content of the email can be changed and adapted to your own thoughts on the subject.
We invite you to promote this action among your friends and as usual to write down your comments below the article.
The proposed e-mail:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am strongly opposing the on-the-spot fines and criminalising people who break the guidelines imposed by the lockdown. Your statutory instruments and other rapidly prepared laws can not override our basic constitutional rights and freedoms.
You failed to engage with the public and the wide scientific circles in a meaningful debate on the continuously emerging data on COVID19 which clearly shows the danger is not that great as it was presented at the beginning and there are effective treatments of that infection.
You continuously ruin the livelihoods, businesses, health and mental sanity of thousands and thousands of citizens and residents of Ireland by your unproportional restrictions and lockdowns.
You lost our trust and respect because you do not trust and respect us, your electorate. You were supposed to be serving us.
I strongly reject restrictions, penalties and lockdowns. This is not the way to run a country. You are ruining our future and the future of our children by pinning us down to our four walls and dimming us “unessential” instead of targeting the vulnerable and not working on improving the HSE capacity for ICU units.
If you go ahead with penalties and that outrageous police state the public will not forget it nor forgive you.
Do not start the war on the citizens. This is not democracy and we did not vote for living in a tyranny.
Please engage in a constructive debate and review other options as per the below open letter to the Irish government.
