Mayor urges Leesiders to line streets in welcome

THE Lord Mayor of Cork last night urged people to line the city’s streets tomorrow to welcome the queen to the southern capital.

“We need the public’s help to bring to life our promise that Cork is a city of welcomes,” he said.

“I urge everyone to come into the city and help us maximise this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to showcase the city in its best possible light on the world stage,” Cllr Michael O’Connell said.
