Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams MP/MLA has today launched the annual Sinn Féin Slógadh in Howth, Dublin (19-21 October) and has urged all Irish speakers and learners everywhere to take part and enjoy the numerous events. Mr Adams said: "Sinn Féin has been to the forefront in promoting the importance and safeguarding the position of the Irish language and culture during the negotiations leading to the Good Friday Agreement and St Andrews Agreement on an all-Ireland basis." Sinn Féin is the only political party to organise an annual Irish language conference. The Slógadh brings together gaelgeoiri for debate, music and craic. It is open to everyone.

Young children in particular are being educated in increasing numbers through the medium of Irish and it is their future and their rights that must be cherished. read full story / add a comment
