Dublin Youth Against The Treaty!

category dublin | eu | news report author Saturday June 07, 2008 18:52author by Joanne - No! 2 Lisbon Report this post to the editors

Dublin youth activists united in protest today outside the European Union house to urge a No! vote in this Thursday’s Lisbon Treaty referendum.

The protest, which included an open mic and street theatre, was jointly organised by Ógra Shinn Féin, and the Connolly Youth Movement, with members of the IPSC and Anarchist activists also in attendance.

Following a very imaginative and visible protest which had Brian Cowen and Charlie McCreevy present, there was an extensive canvass of the thronged Grafton Street asking people to secure a better deal for Ireland, and vote No!

Speaking on the protest, Ógra Shinn Féin spokesperson Oisin Dolan said,

“We sent a very clear message to the public today that the Lisbon Treaty is a bad deal for Ireland. It will erode our sovereignty, militarise our country and Europe, attack workers rights, and damage public services. For many reasons it is in the interests of citizens in the 26 Counties to reject this Treaty and send the Dublin government back to re-negotiate a better deal for the Irish people.”

“It was a good demonstration of anti imperialist unity today, and with 5 days left, it will be important to mobilise and popularise all progressive opposition to Lisbon. We can achieve it, if we keep up the momentum. I want to appeal to all young people to unite against the Treaty and vote No! to ensure a brighter future for Ireland.”
