TRALEE gardaí feature prominently in a new video just uploaded to the official Garda social media accounts.
Footage of Tralee gardai dancing on the roof of the local garda station went viral last week and now it’s become clear what they were up to.
They were part of a national Garda response to a challenge laid down by Swiss police last month where they did a choreographed dance to Master KG’s ‘Jerusalema’ and posted it on social media.

In the video below, Tralee gardai are seen dancing on the roof of the Tralee Garda Station, out in Fenit and by the canal.
The clip also features other gardai in various locations around the country. The aim was to bring some cheer to people in these dark times. See below…
We have stepped up to the Swiss police @fedpolCH #JerusalemaChallenge. Gardaí across Ireland answered the call to give the public we serve a lift in these challenging times. #StayTogether #homeStaySafe pic.twitter.com/sbLdkk54hB

Fantastic , Brought a smile to my face.

So, Gardaí enforce draconian lockdown measures on every citizen of the state against the ideals, values and freedoms which western culture is founded on and then they aim was to bring some cheer to the same people in these dark times by dancing, social media virtue signalling their ignorance!
LOL, truly epic.
They’re just doing their job. The restrictions aren’t nice but have to be there and Ireland isn’t the only country where this is happening. At the end of the day they’re trying to bring a small bit of joy and laughter into people’s lives.
They’re just doing their job! or Just following orders!

The restrictions aren’t nice!
Gardaí enforcing a lockdown on Irish citizens removes fundamental rights.
I feel this is more serious given the fact that 98 per cent of fatalities caused by the virus are in the age range of 86-95 years of age.
This is about all about the economy, recapitalising banks by preventing spending to make them more secure, indebting the nation state to secure long term payments and burning away the undergrowth of business to open up new opportunity for big business.
The Gardaí are public servants making hand over fist overtime and will enable them to rise above the private sector again.
Just like the British police did when they beat down the coal miners in the North of England under Thatcher, many a PC bought their first property due to the overtime.
The Gardaí serve a whole load of interests apart from the public good!
What is the difference in the poor bloke who drove to 2 beaches in his own car and had no contact with anyone apart from the Gardaí and was prosecuted.
Yet, Gardaí go around dancing at Fenit and other scenic sites!
No, this is a joke and if the Irish people can not see it!
Fantastic, front line workers showing all of us to continue to believe, we will get through this, thank you for all of your work and thank you for putting a smile and more on all of us.
I loved it.. made me smile
Thank you
