Sorry for the brevity of this story, and please remove if editors see fit. But to me the importance of this issue is worth it.

Fine Gael has put up a number of posters on lampposts this morning in the IFSC. Advertising Enda Kenny being in the Excise Bar today at 1pm to meet the public.

Is this not contravening the new laws against this?

The ban on posters on lampposts, I believe, is having a detrimental affect to activism across Ireland. I think it is having a huge affect on both the national political consciousness and on the consciousness of activists. It has been a huge political victory both for the government and all the established parties in subduing dissenting voices. A huge blight on Irish democracy and freedom.

Anyone care to be down in the Excise Bar at 1pm to challenge Enda Kenny on this or raise protests through other means?

Maybe this article could be used as a reference point to discuss peoples feelings on this law, on the affects it is having, what has been done about it and most importnatly what can be done about it.

This law must be abolished.
