Dublin Sinn Féin against bin charges
A public meeting in Dublin's south-east inner city on Tuesday
night, 13 February, heard Sinn Féin support for a campaign of
opposition to Dublin Corporation's new bin collection charges
Speaking at the meeting in St Andrew's Community Centre, Pearse
Street, organised by the Dublin Anti-Bin Charges Campaign, the
chairperson of Dublin Sinn Féin, Daithí Doolan, said ``Sinn Féin
is supporting the community in opposition to this unjust and
unwarranted tax. This service charge was forced on the people of
Dublin by the Minister for the Environment and Local Government,
Noel Dempsey.
``It has nothing to do with a cohesive and effective waste
management plan and everything to do with bully-boy tactics. But
these tactics will not work.''
