Killarney rector says rally ‘harmful to town’
The Rev Stan Evans pointed to the huge amount of littering and bad publicity for a premier tourist area arising from more than 50 arrests, mainly for public order offences, last weekend. Most of the arrests were on Saturday night.
The rally is a massive crowd-puller and generates estimated spending of E25 million, with hotels, restaurants, pubs, takeaway food outlets and accommodation providers being the main beneficiaries.
