Hundreds of farmers this evening descended on Waterford from across the South-East as part of the 'Enough is Enough' protest.

The event was organised to highlight farmers' frustrations with issues relating to their industry and to show solidarity with European colleagues who have also been protesting in recent months.

The convoy left Ferrybank after 8pm and travelled through the city.

Speaking earlier on 'Deise Today', John Heffernan, Chair of Waterford IFA, said he hoped the event would show the scale of anger amongst the farming community.
