Protest against RUC/PSNI Game.

category national | miscellaneous | event notice author Friday August 17, 2007 20:49author by Seán Ó Murchú - Sinn Féin Poblachtach Report this post to the editors

Republican Sinn Féin will be holding a protest on Saturday, August 18 at Pairc Esler GAA grounds in Newry at the involvement of a British police force team.

The RSF picket will begin at 3pm. The RUC/PSNI are playing a British Telecom team at 4pm.

An RSF spokesperson said that the match was another step towards normalization of British rule:

“We are protesting at this game to point out to people that British rule is not normal, it’s not acceptable and we won’t be letting it go unchallenged."

"This game is a PR exercise for the British crown forces. Everyone has to realize that. If you stand for a united Ireland and you want a British withdrawal then there is no way you can square that with playing games with the British police."

"We call on all nationalists to oppose British occupation."

Date: 18 Lúasa/August 2007
Venue: Pairc Esler GAA grounds in Newry.
Time: 4pm

RSF PROTEST AGAINST RUC HURLERS IN NEWRY

Republican Sinn Féin held a protest against the presence of a team representing the British Colonial Police at a hurling game in Newry's Pairc Esler on Saturday, 18th August. The match was staged on the back of the Under 21 Hurling Semi-Final clash between Derry and Dublin. This protest – organised by the Joe Conway Cumann, Newry, and attended by Republicans from Newry, South Armagh and Derry – highlighted the fact that there are those who remain opposed to English rule in Ireland.

The match was a cynical attempt to bolster recent moves to make the RUC more acceptable to people from the Nationalist community. Nonetheless, the organisers clearly sought to keep details of the match outside of the public domain until the last minute.

Republican Sinn Féin congratulates genuine supporters of the GAA for boycotting this spectacle, which was left devoid of spectators. We are also aware of a number of people who felt unable to turn out to support the U21 Semi-Final teams owing to their revulsion at the presence of the British Crown Forces' team at the stadium. Although Rule 21 was removed despite overwhelming opposition in the Six Occupied Counties, there are still many who will never tolerate enemy forces playing our National Games.
