They are in their thousands.

Today, nationwide protests took place in the aftermath of the rugby rape trial.

Men, women and children alike took to the streets of Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Galway to stand in solidarity with rape victims.

It is the second round of rallies in just three days after Paddy Jackson, Stuart Olding, Blane McIlroy and Rory Harrison were all found not guilty of the rape, sexual harassment and obstructing justice accusations.

At the beginning of the protest, an organiser shouted the #SueMePaddy hashtag, to which cheers were heard from the crowd.

Here, we look at the pictures, video and tweets from the protests around Ireland:
