Hill of Tara protestors threaten legal action

If one spade touches the Hill of Tara the Government will be hit with immediate legal action, campaigners warned today.

Dressed as the King and Queen of Tara, protesters held a replica Lia Fail, or Stone of Destiny, aloft on the steps of Dáil Eireann demanding the planned M3 motorway is re-routed away from the ancient seat of the Kings of Ireland.
