...there seems to be so many around these days.
Right opposite blackrock church.
Make your own banners! be creative (don't expect the swp to be!)
UCD law lecturer (there's a few of ye folk there right?).
Has been a belligerent and out spoken critic of the war and anti-war protesters (anti-war = pro saddam etc/.) .....
Seems to be on almost every panel discussion on the subject these days.
Is there anyone willing to occupy his or his cronies offices in the spirit of non-violence. If you want to draw attention to Andrews and FF/PD complicity in barbaric mass murder, some people should be/have to be willing to get arrested. The war is marching past us and nobody has been arrested for non-violent resistance since the Dail vote. An office occupation, refusal to co-operate or give name, address, date of birth will ensure you are detained. It's no big deal. You will be brought to the local barracks for questioning. You should have the number of a legal representative whom you are permitted to call immediately when you arrive at the barracks. Once you are arrested, you're legally obliged to give name, address, and date of birth. A statement against FF/PD complicity in the war would be good. Other than that reply 'no comment'. Don't engage in any petty conversation; they will do there best to get you speaking. Likely Consequences: One would have to appear before a District Court judge that evening or following day, released on small bail (if any), and would have to appear at a later court for sentencing. A fine is most probable; once you have acted non-violently. The choice is between non-violent co-existence and violent co-annihilation' - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Best of Luck to all those involved.

I would suggest printing them out and displaying them prominently outside his office - after all, this is what he's supporting.
Ya totally agree with organising a protest against Tom Cooney. He has driven me mad at times.
A succesful peacful occupation was made at Michael Martins office in Cork last Saturday. And though the cops robbed all the anti-war money organised, there were no arrests.
