"Citizen Initiated Referendum (CIR) gives the Irish People the power to call referendums, to create new legislation and recall TD's who fail to perform. Citizen Initiated Referendum (CIR) will remove the shackles and empower the Irish People to manifest the Ireland they hold dear to their hearts, the one they envision for themselves, their children and their grandchildren" -- Jan Van De Ven, 2014


The presence in our Constitution of both the Referendum and the Initiative (CIR) is therefore a sign that the people of Ireland are to be rulers in their own house not merely as against foreign control, but as against the dominance of political parties.
The Irish Constitution Explained, by Darrel Figgis, 1922

What Can We Accomplish with Citizen Initiated Referendum (CIR) in our Toolbox.

  • With CIR We Can Protect the Life of the Unborn - Citizen Initiated Referendum is the only way for the Pro-Life movement to get another chance at a "No to Abortion" referendum in Ireland.  Citizen Initiated Referendum gives you the power to create new legislation and reverse any unpopular laws passed by the Dáil that you find oppressive to your freedom, your happiness and your wallet.
  • With CIR We Can Protect the Environment - You believe that fracking, industrial waste, pesticides, GMOs and air pollution are bad for mother nature and bad for your health.  With Citizen Initiated Referendum you can initiate new legislation to regulate your exposure to these environmental toxins.    
  • With CIR We Can Initiate New Legislation and Reverse Laws Created by the Dáil - Citizen Initiated Referendum gives you the power to create new legislation and reverse any unpopular laws passed by the Dáil that you find oppressive to your freedom, your happiness and your wallet.

  • With CIR We Can Apply the Norway Model to Irelands Oil and Gas Reserves - Norwegians enjoy the second-highest GDP per-capita among European countries, and the sixth-highest GDP per-capita in the world. Because of Public Ownership of Oil, Norway ranks as the second-wealthiest country in the world in monetary value, with the largest capital reserve per capita of any nation.  Norway has more than a trillion dollars in its Sovereign Wealth Fund.  Education and healthcare are free.  With the power of Citizen Initiated Referendum in your tool box you could put Irelands Oil and Gas Reserves into public ownership and implement the Norway economic model.
  • With CIR We Can Stop Water Fluoridation and Protect Irish Water from Privatization - The research says that Hydrofluosilicic acid (HFSA) is a neuro toxin. With Citizen Initiated Referendum you could stop water fluoridation and put Irish water into public ownership.

Join Our Digital Army

With Citizen Initiated Referendum (CIR) or Direct Democracy We Can Defeat the Globalist Forces which are Destroying the Integrity of our Sovereign Irish Republic.

The economic and political solutions to the issues that currently plague Ireland are with its citizens, and not with the “Say One Thing, Do Another Politicians”.

To fix our dysfunctional democracy we need to reactivate “Citizen Initiated Referendum”.

The founders of the Irish Republic gave us Citizen Initiated Referendum as Article 28 in the Constitution of the 32 county Dáil Éireann and as Articles 47 and 48 in the 26 county Saorstát Eireann Constitution.

William T. Cosgrave removed it from the Saorstát Eireann Constitution in 1928 and Direct Democracy Ireland wants to put it back.

What the framers of our first 2 constitutions understood was that “Citizen Initiated Referendum” gives You the Voter, the POWER to Gather Signatures and Force a Binding Referendum Against the Will of the Irish Government and the European Commission on any LAW that You Find Oppressive to your Freedom, Your Happiness and Your Wallet.

Give Yourself the POWER to Overrule the Dáil.

Together We are Unstoppable, and Together We are Strong.

We CAN do this!

Help Make Ireland Sovereign Again!!!
