Around 300 take part in UCD stoppage

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday March 20, 2003 13:40author by Andrew - GNAW

Around 300 workers and students took part in the 10 minute work stoppage against the war in University College Dublin at Mid-day. As this is outside of term time (so not many students are around) this was a reasonable turnout. Speakers included a couple of academics, the president of the SIPTU UCD section and the incoming Students Union president. At the end a small group left the campus to march into town.

Eight members of staff came out of the school in CBC Monkstown

plus there was one minute of silence and 10 minute discussion of war in all classes

maybe other people could send in reports - would be interesting to see how it went

Its time for the leadership of Sinn Fein (Gerry Adams)& the Green Party (Sargent) to go on TV and tell people its now or never.
