Protestors: Get tough or get lost

CAMPAIGNERS protested outside the Green Party offices in Dublin, accusing the junior coalition partners of “selling out” on their environmental principles since going into Government.

“It is time for the Green Party to either get tough, or get lost,” said the TaraWatch group.

Members have been lobbying to change the route of the M3 motorway away from the historic Skryne Valley and said the Greens were going to add taxes and stealth taxes — to pay for motorways — and support cuts in public transport spending.
