Well done.
Well done lads
Well done – oddly I didn’t see a thing considering the street where I live in Navan is awash with drugs – I’ve seen more syringes thrown on the ground in the past 5 years than I ever saw living in Dublin
@The only INFP in Ireland: I honestly must have my eyes closed. I never realised Navan was bad. What street?
Do the gardai not realise that the more the seize the more they push the price up of high quality product. They should flood the market with cheaper product. Supply and demand. Have they learnt nothing from Netflix?
@Seán Corcoran BSc (Hons): WTF!
About time, the amount of drug dealers around navan is ridiculous. Alot more needs to be done though
Well done to them
have your say
