Clones Sinn Féin Town and County Councillor, Pat Treanor, has said the voice of the people must be heard by the Government after tens of thousands of people marched in support of a fairer way to deal with our economic problems last Friday.
Speaking after attending the regional rally in Dundalk Cllr. Treanor said the Government must listen to the alternative proposals being put forward by Sinn Féin and the Unions to bring us to economic recovery without attacking the least well off in society and cutting public services.
Cllr. Treanor said:
“Friday’s rallies were a massive show of protest against the Government and support for a better and fairer way. I want to congratulate the Irish Congress of Trade Unions, the workers from both the public and private sectors and the members of the public who came out in their thousands at the regional march in Dundalk. It was heartening to see so many people from County Monaghan make it their business to be there.
“The Government must listen to the voice of the people. More than 100,000 people came out on Friday to say loud and clear that they will not accept Government attacks and that a better and fairer way must be brought forward.
“And the fact is that there is a better and fairer way. Sinn Féin is finalising its pre-budget submission to Government in which we outline how the €4billion the government wants to close in the deficit can be met without attacking the least well off or cutting public services.
“The Government must start listening to the alternative proposals being put forward by both Sinn Féin and the Unions.”
