Around the same time, I picked up a guy who went to the aid of an unconscious man - a victim of a similar attack - outside the Gresham.
The ambulance personnel were dealing with it as I drove off.

This is partly due to clubs ejecting tens of thousands of drunk and drugged people onto the street at exactly the same time. An effort by the government to pander to publicans.

They are working on it, I reckon it's highly unlikely to be passed, but maybe a compromise of 3 or 4am ??

It's already 03.00 unless it's Coppers' - being a Garda haunt - can be anything up to 05.00.

They should be allowed at their own discretion whether to stay open until 06.00 or not.
