Large crowd at McCreesh commemoration

Over 400 people attended the 19th commemoration march for hunger striker Raymond McCreesh in Camloch in South Armagh last Sunday, 21 May.

The main speaker at the commemoration was Sinn Féin's Bairbre de Brún, who accused the securocrats and elements of the British establishment of being involved in a ``fight back'' to save the RUC.

Sinn Féin would not be recommending that nationalists and republicans should join the new police force, she said.

According to local people, last week's gathering was the largest crowd at the annual commemoration in years.
