Is there anywhere to watch the full documentary?
1:55 the family history of Dubliners almost perfectly matches the family histories of those in Liverpool, here in Manchester and other U.K. cities when one starts chatting to the older people of a given area - after living in Manchester 23 years and being Irish, I’ve always been interested in the real history of an area and I’ve heard very similar stories of older people
Having grown up in Rural Ireland and having my late Grandmother on my Dad’s side as a Dublin Liberties “Mot” in my 23 years of coming home to Ireland from where I now live in Manchester U.K. (my last visit being in October 2022) holding and renewing an Irish passport, especially since Covid, I’m increasingly getting the sense that the Irish within Ireland are losing sight of their Irish cultural heritage and Irish identity, whereas us Irish abroad are only too well aware of our Irish roots in an era of increasingly dominant diversity, inclusion and multiculturalism - only time will tell if this turns out to be a good thing elsewhere, but for my native Ireland this is a disaster waiting to happen - we Irish have to protect and preserve what is left of our Irish heritage and culture, of which one iconic and vitally important part is the Dealers of Moore St in Dublin 🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The Garda were never for the people in this country you only have to see their role in the Great Replacement!
The last trader left the Fruit and Vegetables market in 2019 they had years to plan for the market being empty and it’s 2024 and still nothing!
Rose coloured nonsense, the crime rate on Oxmantown road plummeted when the flats were emptied, and the prices of the houses in the area went up by €100k. They used to stone the bus that travelled through the flats and it was regularly cancelled. There were so many young mothers in the flats but very few (involved) Dads. Good riddance to it (ask any of the neighbours).
I miss the old Dublin so much. Born in the north inner city in the early 70s. Have brilliant memories of growing up in Dublin. My family were all street traders so spent alot my childhood in Henry St & Moore St. The place was full of character and charm. Sadly it's all been lost. I live in Co Meath now and wouldn't step foot in the place again. We all know why. It's not Irish anymore. Sad times indeed 😢
They don't make them like Tony Gregory anymore. He died too soon.
Ɓeàutifùl. Thank ÿou i loved it,❤😢❤☆☆☆☆
Look at the traders today, almost vanished…. The government won in the end 😢 Tony was a man of the people.. wouldn’t be surprised if they ‘Got rid of him” …

Tony Gregory: the template for a people's politician. This is a brilliant documentary, and beautifully narrated by Karen Dowling. Thank you.
My nana and auntie lived there, nana was 234 great memories there,remember the Perrie winkles being boiled in huge pots , a penny a bag,The old ones going down to quinlins for a jar, The kids there were great,loved going there, we lived in bluebell flats.
U nailed it with a way u present this amazing story. Even the emotion is there to pop out many times. Heartfiled is one of the best artist ever and the humiliation he is trying to introduce to the manipulated people is above all packed in his astonishing work. One of a kind artist ❤
Oh wow this is brilliant. Thanks for sharing with us. R.I.P Frank Deasy.
As a Dublin northsider, this video brought tears to my eye, Great job.
Oh man! You're a life saver. My kids' mom and her dad have been looking for this for years. Her brother was in this film. He was the little boy playing him at 8 years old. His name was Robert Jones. Sadly, Robert is no longer with us.
I was born 1980 and it was the greatest fun ever as a child until heroin came lost, alot t of riends
Dublin has no jobs and they all grew up with their parents on the dole and grew up depressed the amount of kids that went onto heroin was too many and all of them didn’t care if they Ó.Ded their life’s were horrible and these viggies talking didn’t get clinics opened for anyone they wanted to be pillars of society and they think they’re great getting interview everyone that went into mountjoy got aids these viggies made our lives more miserable. I don’t know how many times I ÓD But fuck it it would have been better to die than live like this while Charlie Haughty was robbing the country people thought he was great while everyone’s kids were being buried everyday hypercritical Gobshites.
My mam nanny antie and grandad is in that
💚💚💚
I was born in Balcuris but moved out when I was 6,I'd rather say I was from Ballymun than where I grew up.
Anyone remember Norah Jones?
Does anyone remember. Norah Jones from O'Devaney Gardens?
@@wolfstaley4092 Sorry, but I was not talking about the singer.
Thanks so much for this great documentary. The corporations need to be stopped. They are destroying the planet and ruining peoples lives with their greed.

I was completly unaware of him, his works should be shown in german schools when the nazi regime is part of the education, it reveals so much more about the time he lived in.
wonderful way to convey this information. Thank you. More, please!
The drugs ruined bullmun and all the good area’s which are still ruined to this day)) God bless you all guys and girls from ballymun and so on )) I really good music and great people who would help ya if you were stuck for a bita sugar or tea whatever you needed they all stuck together)) The shops in the Luton vans caravan shops so many good memories I really enjoyed watching this)) Thanks for sharing it with us all)))
Ballymun years ago and I remember the caravans used as shops and a Luton van shop!! Ballymun was a great place around that time because there wasn’t as much drugs as their is today!! And all the good people had respect for each other and they were all very good folk back then!!!!! I remember them old escort vans and them shops there and the good old times alright))))
i grew up in St Michaels estate, left in 1979, my mother in law also grew up in Keogh Square, my family have a fairly strong connection with the place, my father served in the army and also in the congo, my uncle also lived in the flats, one of the 8 stories near the church, so many memories of the place, i've found myself many a time sitting in the green where the flats where having lunch, remembering family that have passed on and well, just to feel home again, no where else has ever felt like home like St Michaels did.
