C&D Foods keep injunctions in place against two protestors connected to summer’s beef protests

Injunctions remain in place against two protestors dating back to the summer’s beef protests - and remain a stumbling block to any talks on resolving the impasse between farmers and processors.

Two protesters - Fine Gael councillor Paraic Brady and Colm Leonard - are subject to injunctions taken out by C&D Foods, and sources familiar with negotiations say there is a resolve among farmer representative bodies to hold off on talks until these legal threats are lifted.
