Another bin tax jailing - Mick Murphy

category dublin | bin tax / household tax / water tax | news report author Monday November 10, 2003 18:35author by Brian - Socialist Party Report this post to the editors

Today at the High Court, the Tallaght coordinator of the anti-bin tax campaign, Mick Murphy, was jailed for three weeks and fined 1,500 euro. He refused to give an undertaking not to take part in any more blockades or protests that could cause disruption to the bin collection service.

The sentence is identical to those imposed on six other campaigners from the South Dublin local authority area last week. While it was very harsh, there had been speculation that Mick might receive an even more severe sentence.

As well as being prominent in the anti-bin tax movement, Mick is a long-time Socialist Party activist.

He brings the total number of activists and residents in prison to 7. 22 have been jailed since the blockades began. Meanwhile, not a single Ansbacher account holder has ever seen the inside of a courtroom, let along a cell.
