WESTERN POLITICIANS WARNED AT GALWAY MARCH

Date Published: 09-Feb-2013

WEST of Ireland politicians were warned, by a trade union leader, that if they fail the voters they will be replaced at the next election.

The warning came from Padraig Mulligan of the IMPACT trade union in the city at the Galway rally for 'jobs not debt' - one of six held in cities nationwide.

Gardai estimated that approximately 2,000 attended the Galway rally which ended with speeches at The Spanish Arch.

A number of young people addressed the rally, after Padraig Mulligan's hard-hitting speech, warning western politicians to deliver or else be dumped out of their seats in the next election.
