The Republican Socialist Prisoners in Portlaoise send each of you here today our heartfelt comradeship.

Today we remember with pride all those who gave their lives in pursuit of a 32 County Republic and today we as republican socialists will also proudly march behind the red flag and starry plough.

Easter is a sad time for many of us; it is also a time for reflection where we pledge to redouble our efforts in rebuilding the RSM.

Each of you here today have a part to play in this movement; the movement needs all of you to play a part as we put forward the analysis of our politics.



We wish to take this opportunity to salute the leadership and the volunteers of the noblest army of the people, the INLA.

We salute the Ard Comhairle of the IRSP and its activists and we send solidarity greetings to our friends, our families, and our comrades.



The revolutionary Socialist Ireland preserved by our movement will not be achieved by taking seats in another Dail or Stormont, neither will it be achieved by naked pursuit of power for the sake of power and rank as reflected in our recent history by the antics of the Provisionals / Sinn Fein whose antics to achieve power at any cost besmirches the memory of all Volunteers who died in the struggle for Irish unity and mocks the efforts of all Volunteers who were imprisoned over the years.

Just a few weeks ago Adams and his cohorts had the audacity to hijack the funeral of
Brendan the “Dark” Hughes.

The Dark had already spoken of his contempt for Adams and his cronies, that episode left many true Republicans with a bitter taste in their mouths.



As our Movement continues to grow much to the annoyance of our enemies, we call on all our activists to become more involved in relevant issues both at local and national level.

The campaign at Rossport against the exploitation of our natural resources and the campaign to save Tara and our cultural heritage need to be supported.



At this present time our movement is facing a vicious onslaught from the Free State lackeys and right wing media, our members are been subjected to draconian laws designed to intern our activists, WHY?, ……because they fear the politics of men like James Connolly, Seamus Costello and Gino Gallagher.

The heart of Gino beats strongly within our wing and we feel his presence and we are sustained by it.

Each part of our movement is equally important as together we are an unbreakable fist.

We thank you all for your support shown to us over the past year Willie Gallagher, Paddy Wall, Cocker Murray, Declan Duffy and the Dundalk Comrades deserve particular praise, we salute you all for your kindness.

As our numbers are increasing, we ask that each Cumann appoints a POW rep.



We are with you in spirit, Victory to the soldiers of the INLA.
