National 1916 commemoration committee statement -

Heres one opportuntiy for people to reclaim 1916 from Ahern and co this year .

"National 1916 Commemoration Committee.

Easter Parade 2006. Easter Sunday April 16th.

Assemble at Garden of Remembrance 2.30pm, parade commences 3.00pm.

Prominent speakers from the 32 County Sovereignty Movement and IRPWA.

The National 1916 Commemoration Committee urge ALL Republicans to attend our parade in Dublin on Easter Sunday. Republicans, of whatever persuasion, should stand shoulder to shoulder this Easter and not allow the day to be hijacked by Free State revisionists and opportunists. The mantle of Republicanism belongs to those who remain true to the vision of the men and women of 1916 and not to those who have usurped the Republic and our national sovereignty. At a time when the Free State is actively conspiring with the British to maintain partition it is incumbent on all Republicans to expose the hypocrisy of a Free State march to commemorate those who died to establish and defend the Republic.
This Easter Sunday is an opportunity to reclaim the legacy of 1916 from those who would seek to deliberately misrepresent the Republican position. Unite and join us in remembering our fallen and what they fell for as we have done every year and not just when political expediency requires it."

One things for sure it would annoy hell out of them . Its your sovereignty thats being argued for , might be an idea to start demanding it . And Easters the best time to start .
