press release
Saturday November 19, 2011 16:41 by Saoirse - Republican Sinn Féin saoirse at iol dot ie Teach Dáithí Ó Conaill, 223 Parnell St, Dublin 1 01 8729747
Following a meeting of the Ard Chomhairle of Republican Sinn Féin on November 19, the following statement was issued:
“The announcement on November 11 that the RUC/PSNI is to play in Croke Park on November 25 shows that the GAA is once again being used to normalise British Rule in Ireland.
“Bringing the British Colonial Police into Croke Park - like the visit by the Queen of England in May - contravenes the principles upon which the GAA was founded, namely the essential unity of Ireland as a nation.
“This principle is reflected in the fact that the GAA has never recognised the British-imposed border but has remained an All-Ireland Association. Faithful Irish Republicans, many of whom are members of the GAA, will oppose this visit and will use it to highlight the fact that British rule/occupation in Ireland is not or never will be normal or acceptable.
“Like James Connolly we say ‘England has no right in Ireland, never had any right in Ireland and never can have any right in Ireland’.
Republican Sinn Féin will be holding a protest on Friday. We will assemble at Quinn’s Pub in Drumcondra at a time to be confirmed.

Jump To Comment: 2 1The PSNI team are not coming to Dublin by any claim of right or occupation but by invitation as guests, Wheres the harm in that ?
Let's not forget they are all Irishmen, and that down here we have a "PROHIBITION OF INCITEMENT TO HATRED ACT".
