2pm - Saturday 7 June Republican and Socialist youth activists invite you to a rally on Saturday June 7th, on the steps of the EU offices on Dawson St., against the Lisbon Treaty that is virtually identical to the proposed EU constitution rejected by French and Dutch voters in 2005. The treaty, if ratified, would consolidate and centralise the power of unelected EU institutions, further the militarisation of Europe and advance its neo-colonialist ambitions, and hasten the privatisation of Europe’s public services. Defend Workers & Migrants’ Rights! | ||||

As far as possible, people should wear orange clothing as we only have a limited number of the jumpsuits. We will provide signs. Bring your friends, family, co-workers, neighbours etc. We need as many bodies as possible to make the strongest statement possible to the Irish, British, American and other governments. Torture must end. Millions of volunteers needed but we will settle for thousands :) Please sign up to join the demonstration. Email Sandra – sscotthayward@amnesty.ie Start: 19:30
