With the centenary anniversary of Liam Mellows' execution exactly six months away, National Party members, in the spirit of local community, cleaned up the statue of Mellows in Eyre Square, Galway city during the week. We saw what a terrible state the statue was in with green moss, lichens and bird droppings. It must have not been cleaned for some years. There were also tie wraps around the neck of the statue which we removed.
Why have the authorities at City Hall, local elected representatives and politicians, who wrap themselves in a tricolour when it suits them, continued to ignore the leader of the Rising in Galway?
