According to 'Generation Yes', who sported their t-shirts with the boys wearing a blue top with ''Yes, Yes, Yes'' and the girls wearing pink saying ''I only Kiss boys who say Yes'', say the ''EU is Ireland's best friend''.

First and foremost, the group is ''grassroots'' and is ''Independent''. But they fail to mention the campaign director is Andrew Byrne, a former Trinity College students’ union president. He is now a member of the Green Party. Hazel Nolan a UCC student and a member of the Labour Party, was involved with the Alliance for Europe in last year’s campaign. Doesn't sound too independent to me.

Anyway, I looked at their website and it is pure garbage. Its disgusting and offending to think there are students out there with this attitude. If you want to get in touch with the propagandists or read their rhetoric, heres the link...
