National Independent Hunger Strike Commemoration

At 12.3o on Sunday 21st August 2001,  Dunville park will see a mass of true republicans come out and show their continual respect and support for the 12 Hunger Strikers who lost their lives selflessly for their beliefs.

The National Independent Hunger Strike Commemoration Committee would like to invite everyone to support and take part in a commemoration to remember all the Hunger Strikers.

    A number of our readers have questioned as to why we commented on 12 Hungerstikers when it was Ten men that gave their lives in the year of 1981.

    IRNews would like to remind those who e-mailed that in the early 70s another two young brave men also gave their lives in an English gaol through a republican Hungerstike.

    We intend to do articles on all those that gave their live so selflessly for their beliefs in the near future.
