No to Nice got €30,000 in donations

Mr Barrett was accused during the Nice referendum of receiving funding from right-wing groups, but the anti-abortion campaigner rejected the allegations. Action from Ireland (Afri) denied receiving donations from Britain for the Nice campaign, despite the claims of Yes campaigners.

The Mother and Child Campaign and Youth Defence, his anti-abortion groups, told the Standards in Public Offices Commission they did not receive any donations more than 127 for the abortion referendum campaign.
