The Rally2Repeal was in full swing: Tweets that summed up the vibe
Thousands of people have taken to city streets all over Ireland today as part of the Rally2Repeal.
And from heartfelt speeches delivered by guest speakers on the ground to messages of support keeping Twitter ticking over, today's nationwide demonstration is yet further proof thousands of people in Ireland will continue to demand change.
In fact, according to a poll conducted by Amnesty Ireland, 80% of people would vote yes in a referendum to repeal the 8th amendment.
And here is a snapshot of the current vibe on Twitter right now.
