People of Donegal are being encouraged to demand a referendum

THE PEOPLE of Donegal are being urged to demand a referendum following proposed changes to the Triple Rock which could potentially put Ireland’s neutrality in danger.

Earlier this week the Dáil saw clashes between Taoiseach Micheál Martin and Mary Lou McDonald TD, as the debate over the Government’s decision to remove the Triple Lock arose again.

Deputy McDonald said changes to the Triple Lock could see Irish Defence Forces going to Lebanon on an EU-led mission rather than as peace-keepers as they have been doing for many years.

Sinn Féin TD’s, Pearse Doherty and Pádraig Mc Lochlainn will be holding a public meeting in Letterkenny to learn about the proposed changes and raise any concerns they may have.

Sinn Féin believes that a decision on Irish neutrality must be put to the people in a referendum and the Irish people must have their say.

Deputy Doherty and Deputy Mac Lochlainn are asking the people of Donegal to join them in the Radisson Blu Hotel, Letterkenny, on Thursday, November 19, at 7.30pm.
