Leafleting in support of Republican POW's, despite Special Branch harassment.

Na Fianna Eireann again took to the streets to highlight the plight of the political prisoners. Jointly organised with Working Class Action, they were joined by members of the IRSM Dublin, who distributed thousands of leaflets to supporters. There was a very good response from the public and some stopped to hear news of the situation in Maghaberry.
To-day saw the appearance of the Dublin Special political police, for a simple leafleting of a GAA game. Did they harass the many ticket touts around the ground, looking to rob the people out enjoying the day in Dublin. Of course not, they were out to harass Republicans, out simply leafleting. At least we know where their priorities lie!
In the coming month we hope to take the news of the plight of the Republican prisoners to the general public in the working class areas of Dublin. We hope to leaflet as many areas as possible and picket various areas, to make as many people as aware as possible.
If anybody wishes to help us in this, you can contact Na Fianna Eireann at the email address below for information.
