Labour is "mission-driven", says Keir Starmer. But the last thing anyone should want is a Government with a mission, says David McGrogan. That's because a Government with a mission needs conscripts. That's you and me.

Moilligh Síos (Slow Down) This Christmas!

category national | miscellaneous | press release author Friday November 21, 2008 16:20author by Moilligh Síos - Ógra Shinn Féin Report this post to the editors

Ógra Shinn Féin National Organiser Barry McColgan has called upon young people in particular to take caution on the roads in the run up and over the Christmas period.

According to Mr. McColgan the Christmas and New Year period are peak times for road traffic collisions.

Speaking on the issue National Organiser of the republican youth organisation, Barry McColgan said,

“The issue of fatal road traffic collisions is a huge blight in Ireland. With a huge number of fatalities and casualties on our roads we must urge caution.”

“Ogra Shinn Fein has pro-actively campaigned for road safety measures across Ireland, and has leafleted extensively, erected road signs, and hosted public vigils to raise awareness around the major issue of road safety.”

“The Christmas and New Year period is a dangerous time on the road with bad weather particularly icy roads, an increase in traffic and many young people having a long school holiday. So I would urge parents, drivers and indeed young people themselves to be mindful of the added risk factor.”

“I would also urge those who are socialising over the Christmas period to leave the car at home if they plan to drink alcohol. I would urge people who have consumed alcohol not to drive and avail of public transport, or a taxi as alternatives to taking the car.”

“We re-iterate our demand for a comprehensive all-Ireland Road Safety Strategy. Road carnage is the second biggest killer of young people in Ireland, this statistic is deeply worrying and we believe that a major measure in dealing with this is by a comprehensive all-Ireland Road Safety Strategy.”

Terrible things can happen due to careless driving, speeding and intoxication though drink and drugs, as we saw this weekend when this 4x4 went off the road, killing all the occupants. Shame.

I think this is a very worthwhile campaign , especially young people addressing the issue themselves, peer inflence works best.

Also I hardly think this is candidate building, merely someone acting as a spokesperson, young people need to have their voices heard as well.

And it is not a singular spokesperson, Ógra use a multitude of spokesperson's. Even the video has a number of different youth activists speaking.

Good to see ÓSF, and i think if you had watched the video Frank, or seen other ogra press statements you would see that they do use alot more spokespersons.

Hope your actions on this issue can have a good impact.

very worthwhile campaign but why yet again do we see youth wings havin these individual spokes people. at this stage building comradeship, education etc should be to the for front not building up profiles of personalities. theres enough of that at 'adult' level. thats the poblem with a lot of left parties particularly sinn fein. no offence t the lad himself.

For safety's sake, it's worthwhile, & staying below 60mph/95kph will help the budget too. Speed-limits on many Irish roads are way too high for the road-condtion, even in good, clear weather!
