Anglo-Irish Bank Demo, Dublin – Saturday 15th
éirígí spokesperson Daithí Mac An Mháistír will be the main speaker at
Saturday’s demonstration at Anglo-Irish Bank headquarters in Dublin.
Belfast musician Pól MacAdaim will also be performing at the St Stephen’s Green
protest, which will begin at 2pm.
To mark the 94th anniversary of James Connolly’s execution, éirígí has organised
the demonstration against the bank bail-out and anti-social cuts. Three weeks
ago, a number of éirígí activists occupied the bank in protest at the Dublin
government’s bail-out of the business class.
Enough is enough – now is time for civil disobedience and mass protest. éirígí
is calling for all those who want to fight back to join us at Anglo-Irish Bank
on Saturday.
Bígí linn - All welcome
éirígí chairperson Brian Leeson has called for people to gather at Anglo-Irish
Bank on Saturday [May 15] in response to last night’s [Tuesday] attack on
demonstrators at Leinster House by Gardaí.
To mark the 94th anniversary of James Connolly’s execution, éirígí has organised
the demonstration against the bank bail-out and anti-social cuts outside
Anglo-Irish Bank’s headquarters at Stephen’s Green, Dublin. Three weeks ago, a
number of éirígí activists occupied the bank in protest at the Dublin
government’s bail-out of the business class.
Leeson said: “Last night’s attack on peaceful protestors outside Leinster House
highlights, yet again, the attitude of the Twenty-Six County establishment
towards those who are not fortunate enough to be a member of the golden circle.
“People have a right to protest and they have a right to engage in acts of civil
disobedience given the nature of the crisis we are facing.”
Leeson continued: “The time for polite discussion about the economic crisis
Ireland is facing is well and truly over. While bankers, developers and a
whole coterie of business people have been protected by Leinster House
politicians, working people have paid the price. This is not a sustainable
situation.
“On Saturday, we can send a message to the business class and their servants in
Leinster House that they can no longer get away with their acts of theft
without facing the direct action of an angry and united people.”
Saturday’s demonstration will assemble at Anglo-Irish Bank, St Stephen’s Green,
Dublin at 2pm.
