F*&$!! Bad clash of the ash. I'll be in touch and also raise this at our end. Not the fault of the first march.

We can work it out.

...should this march not be held on May Day? I know the unions are slow to respond to events, but in this case they've had a good bit of notice. About a century, in fact!

The 'May Day' events in the Republic were pushed back by a week to accommodate people who wished to travel to Belfast for their 'festivities'. It's a ridiculous decision.

Yes, the "legalise cannabis march" is SO much more important that workers rights. People's right to get stoned definitely supersedes that of decent pay for housing, food, and so on. Which one will you be at? I know where I'll be.

Mayday is an international distress signal. It is appropriate to the Irish scene. Year after year the parades are poorly attended and the speeches through megaphones are uninspiring regurgitations of the same stuff. Look to the continent, where Mayday parades are huge, with lots of banners, street theatre, floats (!) and lively music. You get occasional running battles with the police some places - but that's another story.

Irish Mayday parades are dreary and poorly supported. Most trade unionists prefer to stay at home, go to sports events or go on day trips.
