Litir do Leo

Shínigh os cionn míle duine ó earnálacha éagsúla sa phobal litir don Taoiseach Leo Varadkar an tseachtain seo le himpí air cearta náisiúnaithe an Tuaiscirt a chosaint i rith na hidirbheartaíochta ar Brexit.

I mí na Nollag 2017, dúirt an Taoiseach,

“To the nationalist people in Northern Ireland, I want to assure you that we have protected your interests throughout these negotiations. Your birth right as Irish citizens, and therefore as EU citizens, will be protected. There will be no hard border on our island. You will never again be left behind by an Irish Government. These rights will, of course, be available to everyone in Northern Ireland who chooses to exercise his or her right to be an Irish citizen, regardless of their political persuasion or religious beliefs.”

Ach dar le sínitheoirí na litreach, “Bliain ina dhiaidh sin, áfach, leanann leis an diúltú ceart.”

Labhair Meon Eile le cuid acu sin a shínigh an litir…
