Bin Tax Jailings: Protest March to Wheatfield Prison - Tomorrow, Saturday, November 8th

SDCARC

Leaving Palmerstown Shopping Centre at 4pm

THIS MARCH is taking place to protest against the outrageous jailings of six campaigners against the bin tax. Four protestors are in Wheatfield Prison. They are John Murphy, Oliver Short, Finian Smyth and Oliver O’Reilly.

Two, Fionn Ryder and David Murphy, are in Mountjoy jail.

There is widespread anger in the communities in South Dublin at this treatment of honourable taxpayers. Ordinary people are contrasting their three week sentence and fine of €1,500 with the fact that wealthy Absbacher account holders, corrupt councillors and big bankers have not even been to court to answer for real crimes.

Campaign organiser, Mick Murphy, faces jail on Monday

The Secretary of the south Dublin Campaign Against Refuse Charges is before theHigh Court at 2.00 PM on Monday. Like the six already in jail, his “crime” is to be involved in peaceful protests against the policy of South Dublin County Council to leave uncollected the refuse bins of thousands of taxpaying householders.
