Monday May 07, 2007 17:57 by TD - Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign
"Palestinians are dogs, they have no rights" As part of the ongoing IPSC campaign against the Grafton group, who own Woodie's and Atlantic Homecare, and their aiding and abetting of the Israeli economy through the sale of Israeli manufactured goods, chiefly Keter plastic garden sheds and wheelbarrows, eight of our Galway activists picketed the Atlantic Homecare branch in the Wellpark Retail Park and the Woodies one in the Galway Retail Park, eliciting, except for some malodorous shite and abuse, a sweet response from passing pedestrians and especially in our walk from Atlantic Homecare to Woodies, with all flags flying, a very sweet one from motorists. Before Xmas, the manager of the Limerick branch of Atlantic Homecare did the decent thing and pulled the offending items "pending clarification," unfortunately, the clarification was to bloody mindedly and provocatively offer them for sale again. The Grafton Group can easily source Keter's products elsewhere and adhere to ethical trading but again, unfortunately, won't, on point of black principle. |
