Group cancels protest against Phoebe’s school

A PLANNED public protest against a visit to Ireland by fellow students of deceased teenager Phoebe Prince has been called off.

A Cork-based “anti-bullying” group set up in the wake of the 15-year-old’s suicide last year planned to carry out the protest at Shannon Airport as the school party walked through the arrival gates.

But family and friends of the teenager were deeply critical of the planned protest, with her aunt describing it as an “injustice” and disrespectful to the pupils.
