Youth Defence given no platform in UCD

category dublin | miscellaneous | news report author Wednesday November 09, 2005 17:27author by UCD Alliance For Choice Report this post to the editors

Youth Defence front "ultrasound" event canceled due to presure from students

Anti-woman group youth defence have organised an anti-choice propaganda meeting for Monday 21st. Their intention was to cloud the abortion debate with falsities and inaccuracies. Earlier today members of youth defence were seen handing out their propaganda in UCD. Alliance for choice activists approached the group and informed them that they could not hand out that literature unless they were a society or even students. There activities were reported to arts services who upon receiving knowledge of this Services escorted the group off campus, and then cancelled the event organised by youth defence for Monday 21st.

This is a small victory for those who believe in a transparent debate regarding the issue of abortion. Youth defence are an organisation with a murky history. In the past in UCD during fresher’s week they attacked and assaulted a member of the Socialist party. They have intimidated women and bullied and assaulted pro-choice activists in the past. Justin Barrett known fascist has been a former leader of the group and during his tenure the group broke up pro choice meetings with hurlies and bats. Barrett who was forced from the podium in UCD last year by Anti Fascist Action at an L&H debate on immigration has addressed the NDP in Germany and Forza Nuova in Italy both neo-Nazi fronts, and has written much anti-woman, anti-gay and anti-immigrant literature in the past.

We appeal to activists in other colleges to ensure that this bigoted group do not get a chance to spew out their lies and anti-woman propaganda on your campuses. Its time to organise.
