Notice of a protest in Tallaght this saturday

The protest was agreed at a successful meeting of possibly more than 200 people in the Plaza Hotel Tallaght of concerned residents and activists addressed by Mick Murphy (SP) & Lisa Maher other groups were also in attendence, but failed to speak when the floor was opened up. The mood of the meeting was extremely militant with many people the vast bulk of whom had no links to any political party slamming local politicians (names that came up were Séan Crowe (SF) and the local "Labour" councillors) and the Trades Union bureaucracy for failing to actively do something to fight the Bin tax, a number of people also expressed interest in join the campaign against the refuse charges in Dublin South West.

We are meeting up at 2pm at the Bank of Ireland on Main Street Tallaght Village (Beside the old Iceland shopping centre & The Bridge to Dominics)Saturday 20th September.
