Wednesday March 31, 2010 13:05 by Freda H & Kev - IPSC
Rally addressed by all female panel of activists On the evening of Tuesday 30th March 2010 the Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC) in Dublin commemorated Palestinian Land Day by holding a solidarity picket outside the GPO on O'Connell Street from 5 - 7pm, during which hundreds of leaflets were distributed. The picket was attended by over thirty members and supporters of the IPSC, in a colourful and lively display of solidarity which brought a certain vivaciousness to O'Connell Street on such a dismal evening. The rally was addressed by a panel of entirely female speakers; internationally renowned human rights activists Caoimhe Butterly who has spent many years working in Palestine, Ewa Jasiewicz who worked with the ambulance services in Gaza during ‘Operation Cast Lead’ and, IPSC activist and spokesperson Freda Hughes. This the commemoration focused on the role of Veolia, the operators of the Dublin LUAS, in entrenching Israeli Apartheid through their involvement in the running of the Jerusalem Light Rail system and other illegal projects in occupied Palestine. Leaflets to this effect were handed out to passersby.

Jump To Comment: 2 1Well done folks keep up the fight. There is a massive campaign of lobbying in the EU by this french owned company and they need to be stopped. There is a lot of information on this web site about Veolia = corporate Europe observatory.org.
It was posted recently that Sligo council had voted to not renew contracts with Veolia but water bills are still being sent in their name, so it seems its buisness as usual.
Attached are a couple more pics, and the leaflet about Veolia that we distributed.
