 

The Taoiseach has been criticised for not being forceful enough in defending the Nationalist community in the North during the recent controversy surrounding attempts by the Orange Order to march down the Garvaghy Road.

Cllr Padraig Fallon tabled a motion on the issue at this month’s meeting of the Manorhamilton MD of Leitrim County Council.

The Sinn Féin councillor has family connections in the area and says Micheál Martin’s response to the Orange Order’s attempts to march down the route for the first time in 28 years lacked conviction.
