Thompson, who was speaking at a meeting of 25 EU health ministers, used the opportunity to speak out in favour of the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Michael Martin and the Irish Government facilitated this PR moment for the Bush regime.

Protesters were present from the Cork Anti-War Campaign/Anti-War Ireland, CHASE, and the Cork Women's Right to Choose Group.

Anti-war activists used the opportunity to speak out against the misuse of Shannon airport and interviews were conducted with radio and with TV3.

Placards read 'War is also a health issue', 'No welcome for US warmonger', etc.
It was an excellent turnout despite the fact that it is a work-day.
