H-Block Hunger strikers commemorated in Dublin.

On Saturday, May 5, Republican Sinn Féin held a commemoration at the GPO to mark the 26th anniversary of the death on hunger strike of Bobby Sands.

The commemoration was led by a colour party and banners calling for Political Status for Republican POWs and to ‘Remember the Hunger Strikers’.

Des Dalton, Vice-President, Republican Sinn Féin, chaired the event and introduced the first speaker Josephine Hayden, Ard Chomhairle, Republican Sinn Féin. Ciarán Flood then read the Roll of Honour of those who died on hunger strike. Seán McGoldrick read a statement from the OC of the CIRA POWs in Maghaberry. The final speaker was Fergal Moore.

For two hours the Republican Sinn Féin hunger strike commemoration was the centre of attention on O’Connell Street on a busy Saturday afternoon and was a reminder to many of the unfinished business for which the hunger strikers died.
