One of a number of protests against clerical child sexual abuse took place near Dublin Castle on Saturday morning. Ms McGuckan said the protest was a symbolic gesture to the pope and the church that victims had not gone away. “We want the bishops, Christian Brothers, nuns and anyone else who was involved in the abuse of children or covering up the abuse of children brought before the courts. Blue ribbons are tied to Ha’Penny Bridge in Dublin to remember the victims of clerical sex abuse ahead. ProjectionOn Friday night, images of clerical abuse survivors and activists were projected onto buildings across Dublin city on Friday night ahead of the papal visit.
