These images provide a sense of some of the atmosphere of this very significant protest.
It marked the will of the communities and supporters to up the millitancy right in the face of the trade union movement.
There was no question in anyone's mind what the way forward was. The challenge has been put up to the Irish Trade Union movement who were there in considerable force if they will back millitant action.
Check out the short video on SWP TV channel which expresses the desire for action and its pursuit.

Great report Greg, great pics Paula. Well done that man Joe Mooney. Also, the banner of the Belfast and District Council of Trade Unions was carried through Dublin Dockland.
