400 hundred fenians from 1798 are burried on the hill

Más Ó nó Mac thú, in ainm Naomh Phádraig tabhair cabhair do Teamhar.

Tara was Ireland's capital. Fenians died there in 1798. Early Sinn Féin members including Artur Griffith saved it 100 years ago from the digging of the British Israelites. The coronations stone of sorts, the stone of Destiney Liafáil is there to this day.

What is Sinn Féin about if it isn't about protecting Ireland's most historic site, the hill and valley of Tara? It's about time the party repeated what its members did 100 years ago.

The Daily Ireland has already criticised Sinn Féin members for not doing more. Now is the the time to stop the history of Ireland's most important valley being dug up by 22 ton Excavators. Contact 44 to let them know that you support Saving the Tara Valley.

Now is the time.
