The address as given is correct: no postal code or prisoner number required.
Fintan Lane,
Limerick Prison,
Mulgrave Street,
Limerick,
Ireland
is the address? we don't need a prisoner number or postal code?
Yes, please turn up to the blocade: this was Fintan's idea and I think the best solidarity that can be offered right now is to make it a success.
However, I can't stress enough the importance of receiving letters of solidarity when you're in prison. Please take the time to drop him a postcard or letter; conditions are not as good when you're serving a sentence as when you're on remand in Limerick in terms of communication with the outside world, and letters are an enormous boost to morale. You can write to him at:
Limerick Prison,
Mulgrave Street,
Limerick.
Fintan is one of the main movers behind the demo at Shannon next weekend, so show him some solidarity by turning up and keeping it peaceful like he wanted.
MAMA (Mid-Western Alliance against Military Aggression) holding vigil for Fintan outside Limerick prison at 8.00 p.m. Sunday, 30th. November.
Roughly 100-150 other people trespassed with Fintan that day. Show solidarity with his principled action now and join the vigil if you can.
