No welcome for British warship

Dublin Ógra Shinn Féin protesters provided a British naval frigate with a warm welcome to the capital city last weekend. Banners and posters protesting the British military presence were accompanied by foghorns and whistles, preventing the British from communicating over their PA system. The warship was also twice subjected to a barrage of paint bombs during its Dublin visit.
