2pm at Mansion House The Open public meeting will start at 2pm on Saturday 19th November at the Mansion House where the first Dail commenced. The meeting is being chaired by Frank McBrearty, Jnr. It has been organised by the people who were at the Donegal meeting, which was a huge success and where over 500 people turned up to vent their anger and frustration at the level of corruption in this country. The Donegal meeting highlighted the need for an Independent Garda Ombudsman. Justice Ireland is going to highlight the need for an Independent Garda Ombudsman in every large town and city across the country in meetings similar to Donegal and Dublin The following Guest speakers will be in attendance in Dublin on the 19th Nov, Jim Higgins Fine Gael MEP the man who highlighted the McBrearty Case, Dan Boyle Green Party TD who spoke passionately at the Donegal meeting on why we need an Independent Garda Ombudsman, Joe Higgins SP TD who has made some fantastic speeches in Dail Eireann on corruption, Eamon McCann of the SWP and well known civil rights activist, Nicky Kelly, Labour Party county councilor and the first man to be given a presidential pardon for being wrongly convicted for the Sallins Mail Train robbery, Human rights activist Osgur Breatnach, framed by Gardai for the Sallins Mail Train robbery and who had both conviction and 12-year prison sentence quashed on appeal, Mary Lou McDonald Sinn Fein MEP, Aisling Reidy of the ICCL, Frank Connolly the first journalist who exposed the McBrearty case and is now the head of the Centre for Public Inquiry which is funded by the US Billionaire Buisness man Chuck Feeney, Paul Hill one of the Guildford 4 who was wrongly convicted for the Guildford pub bombings and spent 15 years in jail for something he did not commit. The guest speakers will speak first and after that the floor will be opened up to the public to tell their stories. We have invited Michael McDowell the Minister for injustice, Garda Commissioner Noel Conroy and Taoiseach Bertie Ahern TD to come along and address the people Ireland and to tell them why we are denied an Independent Garda Ombudsman with the same powers as Nuala O'Loan, as the Garda Commissioner has stated in correspondence with Frank McBrearty Jnr, he has no objection to an Independent Garda Ombudsman. If they turn up we will ask them why they continue to fudge the issues that are brought to their attention week in week out by the people of Ireland about the extent of corruption on this Island. We Justice Ireland are inviting Mr Justice Kevin Haugh, Mr Conor Brady and Ms Foley who are the members of the new Board set up by the Government to investigate complaints against the Gardai to attend our meeting in Dublin. We cast no aspersion whatsoever on their integrity. Our concerns are with the limitations of the remit given to them by the government which will in effect prevent them from doing their job properly, or at least as well as Nuala O'Loan can do hers. Should any/all attend they will get a deep insight into the corruption that exists and the need to address it by a fully independent and transparent body. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4the name of this campaign is anti-corruption ireland and NOT justice ireland.
McBrearty, why don't you examine $inn Fein and their acolytes (Connolly's little scheme) and their American pig banks (Feeney) if you're interested in transparency:
Labour Party, Sinn Fein, Greens, Eamon McCann... what a joke...
gay gori,
this is about state corruption not about Sinn Fein
at the same time one has to ask why is Frank going for celeb names and politicians?
it is my opinion that we should be with people on the ground who will never have the political clout that those who are adressing the meeting have.

I rather the Ward family Wheelock family, Lyons family addressing the meeting.
And Eamonn McCann spoke out for the travelling people of Ireland on Monday night's Questions and Answers in as clear and passionate a manner as any traveller would or could. No ifs or buts just naming the racism we have seen around the murder of John Ward for what it is. If travelling people could elect their own TD he would get the job in the morning.
