Lissadell and closed roads

category sligo | rights, freedoms and repression | opinion/analysis author Saturday March 31, 2007 16:45author by B Scanlon - right of way/sligo Report this post to the editors

disgrace to her name

The house that countess Markievicz was born in now has exhibition in her honour. This woman born into wealth gave her live to Ireland and its poor. Bertie Ahern kicked the show of on Friday for his friend the owner Eddie Walsh the very man who had closed of rights of way on the estate to the people of the area

The new landlord of Lissadell house had closed of rights of way that was used for generations. To have an exhibition to countess Markievicz life and work in the place of her birth where Irish people are been blocked by a Irish landlord is a disgrace to her memory and everything she believed in. To have the Taoiseach there to open it is two fingers to everyone in the area and their right to walk on Irish roads
