Anti-war groups call for anti-invasion vote

Anti-war activists have called on the electorate to vote for candidates and parties opposed to the US/British invasion of Iraq in next week’s local and European elections.

The Stop Bush Campaign, which is organising protests against US President George W Bush’s upcoming visit to Ireland, said voters should use the elections to register their dissatisfaction with Fianna Fáil and the Progressive Democrats over their support for the Iraq war.
