The Donegal Town Rally will take place on Saturday, 29th November. Parents, teachers and members of school communities are invited to attend the rally which will assemble at the District Hospital in Donegal Town, which is on the Letterkenny approach road at 1.45pm.
Is there any update on this? How many attended? Who spoke? What networking came out of it?
I can find nothing on it on the websites of The Irish Times, The Irish Independent, The Irish Examiner. RTE.ie have a link to it from Six-One but it's not opening for me (reporting that "thousands" took to the streets).
Mark.
I'm not very good at gauging numbers at marches, but RTÉ said there were 8,000. I'd say they weren't far off the mark. Great turnout for the location. There would have been more if it had been in Sligo or Letterkenny but Donegal was chosen because it's the heartland of Tánaiste Mary Coughlan's constituency.
There should be a huge turnout in Dublin next weekend.
Hopefully there'll be a huge turnout in Dublin next weekend. I've heard mention that about 100,000 are expected.
