Left-wing group unfurled anti-Nato banner, criticising ‘imperialist enterprise’
Thursday marks the first of four days of discussion on security and neutrality as part of the consultative forum.
The forum will resume in Galway on Friday, before moving to Dublin for two days of discussion next week. The first protester to stand up on Thursday, Dominick Carroll from the Cork Neutrality League, said he had tried to raise a point of order. The four young men who unfurled the anti-Nato banner and shouted down Mr Martin were from the Connolly Youth Movement, described on its website as a “communist and republican” youth organisation and read anti-war slogans from their phones for about ten minutes before being removed by gardaí.
