If you see any naked people in public, contact your local Garda station

The advice comes after an alleged flasher was spotted in Dublin.

Updated 11pm

GARDAÍ have warned members of the public to “immediately report” any incidents of flashing after a number of people on social media reported seeing a naked man wandering in Dublin at the weekend.

Sightings of the alleged flasher were reported in the Rialto area, the National War Memorial Gardens and the Phoenix Park.

A spokesman from the Garda Press Office said they were unaware of any specific incidents that may have occurred.

However, he urged anyone who sees a flasher to contact their local Garda station straight away.

“Any reports will be thoroughly investigated,” he added.

    @LFC_MAD94: it doesn’t because sometimes the idea isn’t to help but to milk as much out of you as possible!

    Its a really high minimum wage relatively speaking but when the cost of living is going up by the week then it really doesn’t matter. After MUP kicked in we have to work the longest time in the EU to earn our cans. Its just not enough to live on this island.

    Instead of heaping more hardship on people through the illusion of mandated pay rises, our government should be looking at it’s role in why your €uro buys feck all. Consistently rising wages damages competitiveness and hurts job creation.

    Rent inflation alone in the privatised sector is “rising at an annual rate of 6.8 per cent” — https://www.irishtimes.com/business/economy/rent-inflation-surges-to-6-8-amid-unprecedented-shortage-of-homes-1.4724045

    That’s not including high increases in Household Bills, or Cost of Living bills.

    Meaning that your salary suffers from a negative salary growth (ie. a big pay cut yearly).
