Protesters who blocked the Port Tunnel on Monday have said it is "just a small taste of what's to come" as they plan to hold similar demonstrations three days a week for the foreseeable future.
The group known as the East Wall Protest Committee have been holding the demonstrations over the use of the former ESB building to house asylum seekers. They are calling for the centre to be closed completely despite Minister Roderic O'Gorman saying that is not an option.
The group have said that they will be protesting the use of the building every Monday, Wednesday and Friday until further notice "or until the Provision centre is closed down". A letter issued on social media last night said they "extend our deepest apologies to those who have been affected by delays and backlog".
