Army barracks campaigners to unite

CAMPAIGNERS fighting for the future of army barracks in Clonmel, Mullingar and Cavan may join together in a bid to prevent the Government from implementing any closures.

The development follows a protest march on Saturday where up to 1,000 people took to the streets of Clonmel to voice their opposition to any closure of the town’s Kickham Barracks.

The Clonmel events followed similar protests in Cavan the previous Saturday and in Mullingar earlier in the month.
