Not for the first time, comedian Russell Brand has given his take on the issue of water charges in Ireland.

On yesterday's edition of his YouTube show 'The Trews,' he commented on the recent arrest of Anti-Austerity Alliance TD Paul Murphy, as well as Michael Noonan's appointment of ex-HSBC boss Michael Geoghegan to the board of NAMA.

In his closing comments, he says "the flag of corporations has been planted firmly in Irish soil" and encourages Irish people to "fight for [their] rights."

You might recognise the voices in the outro jingle too.
