wsm.ie: Drop the charges against the Jobstown 27 - march
Saturday 2015-09-19 (a-infos-en@ainfos.ca)
At the start of the week the Garda served summons on many of those they've been telling
the media on and off they were going to prosecute for allegedly 'unlawfully imprisoning'
Joan Burton in a 100,000 euro limo for a couple of hours. It would be laughable if the
potential sentences were not so severe and if the reality is all too close to some tinpot
dictatorship where the elite live on a cloud far above everyone else. ---- This Saturday
at 13.00 there will be a protest march from the Central Bank to the CCJ in Parkgate Street
in solidarity with the men and women who have been summonsed to court. ---- A good turn
out is important, the failure of the anti-water charges movement to mobilise when activist
Steven Bennett was jailed without trial for weeks sent out the message to the state that
internal divisions would allow them to pick us off section by section. It's important that
this impression is reversed by the movement standing together.
It is being organised at relatively short notice so as well as going you might want to
bring a bunch of friends who are not keen on the Labour Party's vision of a bright shiny
banana republic where anyone who challenges them gets beaten down or imprisoned.
