I believe that its everyone's right to hold the government of the day to account for its actions, whatever the colour of the government.

That's because they haven't. You're getting confused with Pritti Patel who threatened to starve the Irish. Do you condemn her threats?

She didn't threaten anything. It is the EU and weirdly the Irish talking about blocking things to the UK. The net result of the EUs actions would be shortages in Ireland, as they themselves figured out some time ago.

The Irish public could be in for a huge shock in the days after a hard Brexit with the country facing potential food and medicine shortages.

The UK has said it would be "very unusual" for the EU to seek to block post-Brexit food imports amid a growing dispute over the issue.
The EU has cast doubt on whether it would grant Britain a "third-country listing" for exports of products of animal origin, citing "uncertainties" over its biosecurity controls.
Such exports are worth £5bn to the UK.
A government spokesman said the right to export was the foundation of any kind of agricultural relationship.

So where is it that the UK is the one blocking exports to Ireland?
Nothing wrong in pointing out what would be result of the
actions of the EU. That does NOT constitute a threat. Calling it a threat, yet again highlights the complete and utter lack of "good faith" from the EU, and especially the Irish.
