When is a National Monument not a National Monument?

When the state, the agencies of the state and the re-zoners(pardon me, Council)
are going to put a road through it. Thus 4,000 people objected to the An Bord Pleanala decision to Route the M3 through the Tara Gabhra Valley. One person goes to court to seek judicial review of that decision, (gets hammered for 600,000 grand) and the message we take from this is, do not attempt to engage with a system and structure of planning that is designed to disempower your community or your legitimate right to protest.

I quote from the affidavitt:
"None of the 38sites/monuments are considered to have a group value or to have
any relationships with the other monuments. At the risk of sounding frivolous, does this mean that they and their occupants or creators dropped out of the sky and did not interact with any other living soul or place in this landscape?"

This ,from the state is what the 600,000 grand paid for.

We are looking at appeal .

I have given copies of the affidavits to people, the next step is to present them to the Oireachtas transport committee and to any political party who is interested in actually taking on this scandalous issue at a mature political level.The links below contains somewhere within the body of it a what you can do section, including an online petition.
