Thank you for your maturity

This weekend Ned Brennan, Chairperson of Youghal Tidy Towns Committee issued a press release to thank the responsible candidates from Fine Gael, Fianna Fail, Labour and Independent candidates for not littering the town centre with election posters.

“Posters are unsightly and litter the town and are an insult to peoples intelligence in the current media age” Mr. Brennan commented.

He continued “at a time when the town is struggling economically, the last thing that we need is unsightly election posters which detract from the town centre’s rich heritage and archaeology”

“We need to stand up to political parties who litter the town with election posters and say – no this is not acceptable” The Chairperson concluded.
