Turf Cutters Stand Up to the EU Bullies

The fiercely Catholic and Nationalistic people of the West of Ireland have confronted the EU bullies. Lucinda Creighton and her party have no loyalty to the Irish people or Nation.

Galway turfcutters claim they are being intimidated by low flying aircraft that are checking to see if the turf cutting ban is being adhered to.

Up to 50 turfcutters gathered in protest in Loughrea last evening [May 22] where the European Affairs Minister was officiated at a meeting.

Minister Lucinda Creighton was addressing a public meeting and Q&A session on the upcoming referendum on the European Fiscal Treaty.

The group has now cut turf in Barroughter, Ardraigue and Killimor raised boglands and began working on Clonmoylan at the weekend.

Speaking to Galway Bay FM news, Dermot Moran of the local bogs action group says
turfcutters asked the Minister to intervene against the EU ban

  2. Local Gardai are no longer engaging with the rangers. Helicopters are flying over family homes. Disgraceful.
