Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Make sure it's an even bigger NO this time around! I wish I could vote but unfortunately they don't let us vote in the north of Ireland.
I hope they put in a word for us in north who aren't able to vote on the Lisbon Treaty!
Susan George is a fantastic speaker - her speech and visit to Ireland is worth documenting and reporting on.
Questions...
a) Who is going to record this? MP3 recordings are not the difficult these days?
b) Who is going to make contact with Susan George and do an interview with her for Indymedia.ie ?
Susan George will also speak at CAEUC AGM
