Ógra Shinn Féin has today launched a youth election broadcast for the upcoming 26 County General Election.

It is aimed towards young people and includes the launch of the Ógra Shinn Féin Youth Manifesto by National Organiser Barry McColgan, and interviews from Séan Crowe TD and young Sinn Féin candidate Séan Tracey.

Speaking on the launch of the video member of An Chomhairle Náisiúnta Ógra Shinn Féin Caoimhe Sloan said,

“We produced the video which will now be displayed on YouTube, GoogleVideo and Bebo in order to engage with Irish youth on forums they use.”

“We are asking young people to make use of their vote in this election, and to vote for the party that best represents youth – Sinn Féin.”

“The video deals with issues that Ógra will be highlighting in the upcoming election including Irish Unity, suicide prevention, road safety, tackling homelessness amongst young people and challenging international imperialism, including the US Military use of Shannon Airport.”

“On the 24th May vote for Irish Unity; vote for youth and for change, Vótáil Sinn Féin!”
