Over the past number of weeks, Ógra Shinn Féin have initiated a campaign to paint northern post boxes back to their rightful shade of green.

Over 100 postboxes are now 'greened', with the youth movement claiming that many nationally minded young people have joined the campaign since it was launched.

The campaign is intended to promote national pride in people and areas across the north, with a green post box a very visable sign that we live in Ireland.

It is a simple campaign that everyone can practically get involved and play a part in, 'a practical manifestation' of the All Ireland agenda, and a vibrant anti partition action.

ÓSF have called on all young Irish people, to get their bucket of green gloss, take up the campaign, and ensure the further 'greening of the north!!'
