Three more anti-bin charge campaigners have been sent to jail today.
Ms Brid Smith, public relations officer for the Dublin Campaign Against the Bin Tax, was sentenced to two weeks in prison.
Ms Chrissy Heffernan (60) was also jailed for two weeks and Ms Karen Heffernan, the mother of a 14-month-old baby, was given a week-long jail term. Both are from the Mount Tallant area of Dublin.
Speaking for the Ballyfermot campaign, Dr Peadar O'Grady said: "We, the Campaign Against the Bin Tax, are outraged by the continued heavy-handed sentencing of the courts while corrupt politicians walk in and out of tribunals unimpeded."
"We will not be cowed by the courts, the campaign will continue to resist this unjust double tax".
Protesters will demonstrate outside Mountjoy Prison at 7 p.m. The will also hold a "day of action" at all Dublin refuse depots tomorrow morning.
Ten campaigners were jailed last Thursday when they failed to give undertakings not to interfere with Dublin City Council's bin collections.
They joined Socialist Party TD Mr Joe Higgins and his party colleague, Councillor Clare Daly, who were the first people to be jailed for their protests. Both are due for release from Mountjoy on Saturday at the end of a month-long sentence.
Anti-bin charge campaigners in the Fingal area have warned that they intend to run candidates against sitting councillors in next year's local elections.
The Fingal Anti-Bin Tax Campaign is to officially announce the move this evening. Protesters are expected to gather outside Fingal County Council's head office in Swords as the monthly council meeting takes place between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Ms Ruth Coppinger, a Socialist Party councillor with Fingal County Council, said tonight would mark the beginning of a political campaign and that councillors would be made aware of plans to challenge their seats next year.
She said she believed the anti-bin charge campaign had "majority support" in the area, although she accepted the number of people paying for bin tags had increased.
"There has been an increase, but most people who are tagging their bins are doing so because of public health concerns." Some people had also disposed of their own rubbish in council trucks, she said.
Campaigners in the Dun Laoghaire Rathdown council area will also stage a protest outside that local authority's offices this evening.
