Dublin CRITICAL MASS Public meeting

A dialogue on how to revitalise interest in Dublin critical mass continues despite claims that its days are numbered!

See the following links...

...or put critical mass into the indymedia search engine for an update on this debate.

Should critical mass be a single-issue campaign or should it reveal the politics of petrol by connecting the links between cars and capitalism?

Should black flags, red clown noses, silly multi coloured hemp trousers be discouraged or can it be a celebration of politics and diversity as well as a celebration of cycling?

How direct should this action be?

No doubt there are lots more questions and for sure it will take more than one evening to come up with the answers - so let’s meet?

So we live in Naas/Lucan/Mullingar/wherever and we want to leave our cars at home. How then do
we get to work?? Public Transport?

Don't be anti-car. Instead become pro-Public Transport.
When PT is up to standard then, and only then, will the traffic and bicycle problems will be resolved.
