Hundreds of people have marched to the Dáil, calling on the Government to impose radical change in the upcoming Budget.

Organised by the Cost-of-Living Coalition, members of the Union of Students in Ireland and members of Sinn Féin and People Before Profit marched from Parnell Square to Leinster House.

The Coalition said reductions to energy costs don't match the massive increases over the last year, and living standards are being cut. At the protest, USI Vice President for Campaigns Zaid Albarghouthi said the priorities of the Government are “deeply mismatched”.
