FREE MARGARETTA D'ARCY - END USE OF SHANNON AS A WARPORT.
The IAWM is calling on its members and supporters to join the protest / vigil at Dáil Eireann this Wednesday, 22 January from 1.00 - 1.45pm. Supporters can also write to Margaretta - see address below.
Margaretta has been visited by various people in recent days. Read report in Irish Times here - http://www.irishtimes.com/news/ireland/irish-news/president-s-wife-visit...
Letter in today's Guardian by her son Jake Arden -
My mother, the anti-war activist and writer Margaretta D'Arcy, is serving a three-month sentence in Limerick prison for trying to stop the violation of Irish neutrality by US military planes, which stop over at Shannon airport on the way to and from the war in Afghanistan. She took peaceful direct action to stop crime being committed by lying down on the runway of the airport. Margaretta, the widow of playwright John Arden, is 79 and undergoing treatment for cancer. Imprisoning her for an act of conscience is inhumane. I call upon the Irish government to release her immediately and for the British government to use its influence to secure her release. To keep her spirits up while she remains in prison, I urge readers to send cards c/o Limerick Prison, Mulgrave Street, Limerick, Ireland.
