Your Parish Under Attack!

Your Parish Under Attack



Crime and Anti-Social behaviour is spiraling out of control in our parish.

Old age pensioners have been targeted for robbery and intimidation. Old people are afraid to go to sleep at night. Thugs have threatened to burn out innocent families. Local businesses are constantly robbed and vandalised. Witnesses have been intimidated and NO convictions have been made.

Its time for the people to stand up and stand united

This is not Limerick or Dublin. Don’t allow a bunch of mindless yobs to take over YOUR parish and run it into the ground.

This is the time to act


- Contact Gardai with any and all information that you have about the local crime wave. Don’t be afraid to report ANY suspicious behaviour in your area to the authorities. You could be preventing a violent crime by doing so.

- OAP’s are being targeted. Keep a close eye on your elderly neighbours. Keep in regular contact with them, and insure them that they are safe, while informing them to take precautions.

- Refrain from any vigilantism. The Gardai are trained and sanctioned to enforce the law. It is your duty as a citizen to report criminal activity to them, and not to take the law into your own hands. If we all work in unison with the Guards, convictions will be made, and this crime wave will be brought to an end.

- Report ALL robberies. Don’t allow the perpetrators to intimidate you or anyone else. All
statements of violence made against individuals or businesses should be reported to the Gardai.

- Remain vigilant and United.


Sinn Féin is committed to making our communities safer for our citizens in South Wexford. To do this, we intend to work with all genuine people and community leaders. Sinn Féin condemns any acts of vigilantism taken against these local criminals. Obviously it is tempting for people to want to defend their families, but remember, these scumbags want you to respond to them with violence so that they may justify their actions. The correct thing to do is to co-operate with the Gardai, and to testify in court against these people.


Our Fight is Your Fight
