Don't let them get away with this!

Hi,

When I arrived at the Department of Agriculture on Kildare Street today to leaflet, I was horrified to see sheep corralled in a pen outside the building - as part of a protest being held by the Irish Farmers Association.

I proceeded to argue with the people there, and then made a number of calls to the ISPCA, DSPCA, IFA, Department of Agriculture's Animal Welfare Division and the Gardai - all of which didn't result to much, unfortunately.

So I am asking everyone to please complain to:
