Request to Facebook Users - Justice for Enniskillen Poppy Day Bomb Victims

You may already be aware (through press coverage etc) that on the eve of the 20th anniversary of the Enniskillen Poppy Day Bombings a tribute to the victims was removed from the wall of Enniskillen Fire Station. A facebook group has been set up to try to get this memorial reinstated. I would appreciate if you would please add your support to this campaign.

The group is called "Justice for Enniskillen Poppy Day Bomb Victims"

I would also appreciate if you would refrain from turning this thread into a political debate. If you would like to join the group then please do but if you don't then thats fine - no-one needs chapter and verse on why.

Many thanks.

    What an amazing man Mr Wilson was - he was the type of person who changes history and mends divides rather than deepens them.

    I've joined the FB group as suggested by the OP.

    Many thanks for the support. :beer: Yes as DMXDave says remember to invite your Facebook friends. It seems the guy who set the group up will be on the Steven Nolan programme in the morning and they are hoping to get more members before then. :)
