 Just to remind people. Antiwar demos will take place across Ireland tomorrow, March 8th. Here is the info on the Cork march. Others can inc. details for other marches. Cork Anti-War Campaign to hold rally followed by music event.
The rally is being organised by the broad-based Cork Anti-War Campaign and after marching through the city centre will make its way to Emmet Place where a live music gig will be held after short speeches from anti-war activists, TDs Joe Higgins and Dan Boyle and trade unionists. The event will coincide with International Womens’ Day and the rally will be led off by a group of women dressed in black to highlight the effect of war on women and children. The Cork Anti-War Campaign said that the rally was being held at a critical time as preparations for a US led war on Iraq have been stepped up to the point where special military operations and actual shooting have already started, despite the fact that UN weapons inspectors have yet to finish their task. The demonstration will commence at Daunt’s Square at 1.00pm and will follow a route from culminating in Emmet Place where the musical line-up includes John Spillane, Hank Wedel, Eoin Coughlan and Head Over Heels.
