Letters to the Editor: Fair to say I’m disgusted by councillor’s comments

Fianna Fail councillor for Galway City Michael Crowe. We should not discriminate against a group of people who have been recognised as an ethnic minority by the State.

I am disgusted at Fianna Fáil councillor Michael Crowe of Galway City Council. Objecting to proposals to accommodate members of the Traveller community in a house in the Renmore area of Galway, Mr Crowe said: “I’m not sure too many of the housing officials would like a Traveller family moving in beside them ... but yet it’s OK to foist it on other people. And I don’t believe that’s fair.”

Fair? What does he mean by fair?
