Cllr Cian #Prendiville speech - 2017-06-26 Limerick County Hall.
Cllr Keary has been elected as a new Mayor of Limerick.I hope he will apologize and retract his racist rant against all emigrants in Ireland. We wish him well but his approach to this matter is unacceptable.
Limerick Councillors elected Cllr. Keary as a #Mayor,
He recently did a racist rant blaming the health and housing waiting lists crisis cased by Eastern European people in #Limerick, and claiming they were just here for 'hand-outs'.
More than 2000 signs within few days have been collected under the petition against election of Cllr Keary as a Mayor of Limerick after his racist rant over emigrants.
For almost two weeks he defended and repeated his comments in the media, before finally issuing a half-hearted 'apology', saying he was sorry "'if I hurt anyone", but still refusing to admit that what he said was completely untrue. The reality is there are more people leaving Limerick than coming, and yet the housing and health crises keep getting worse because of the austerity policies Cllr. #Keary supports.
We say NO to racism.
