Priory Hall residents to hold protest in Dublin

The residents of Priory Hall in Dublin are to hold a protest march in the capital later today.

It is to mark a year since they were evacuated from their homes due to fire safety concerns.

The march will get underway at 2pm this afternoon from Donaghmede Shopping Centre to Priory Hall.

Dublin City Council is expected to go to the Supreme Court to try and overturn a court order to re-house the residents after Developer Tom McFeely said he could not afford the repairs.

Spokesperson for the residents, Graham Usher has said they have no choice but to pay their mortgages for a home they cannot live in.
