Protest at Trim Castle

Protest at Trim Castle

PRESS RELEASE

PROTEST AT TRIM CASTLE

17.03.04

An anonymous group of protesting celtic warriors will protest in Trim Castle at 3:00pm today - at the beginning of the Saint Patrick's Day Parade in Trim,County Meath.

The group wants to highlight the decision by Trim Town Council to approve plans for a four-story hotel directly opposite Trim Castle, Ireland's largest and most important medieval fortification, Despite the fact that fifty thousand pounds had to be paid out of EU restoration money to buy the site, and 11 nuns were exhumed to make room for a parking lot for the castle.

The real scandal is that the Minister for the Environment, Mr Cullen, declined to accept a
recommendation from Heritage officials that an appeal should be lodged, saying he was satisfied that the scheme had been revised to mitigate its impact.

Minister for Education - Mr (TD, Co Meath) is also seen as a target upon which to vent this new rage. He represents Co. Meath, yet has done little to protect heritage in his own county.

According to one warrior:

"The destruction of heritage is a globalisation issue too. This is the inevitable byproduct of the unchecked sleazy jumped up rich, gombeen development driven frenzy we see around us. Everything is for sale but only a few profit."
