On 17 April, video footage surfaced online of a man in Limerick tearing down multiple posters belonging to the organisation Rosa, which state 'Stop Shaming Women'. Commenting on the incident to JOE, Rita Harrold of Rosa said: "We are used to these tactics from anti-abortion campaigners. "They try to silence women and minimise our voice in society. This is still happening. "We know that the vast majority don't support those values, we know they trust women in society." Adding that each poster costs €6, she said: "Also the effort of the campaigners who volunteer to put them up is of equal importance to us."Last night a crew from Phibsborough extinguished referendum posters set alight on @DubCityCouncil public street lights. Apart from damaging very old and characteristic street furniture it can also cause damage to the internal electrics. pic.twitter.com/VZsThx85Pc
