Members of Derry Trades Union Council have appealed to local people to attend a rally in Guildhall Square on Friday 15th October, to send a clear message to dissident republicans that "bombing will achieve nothing."
Liam Gallagher said DTU want everyone to gather at Guildhall Square at 1 p.m.
“We cannot afford to sit back and wait for another bombing incident, everyone who has the interest in moving this city forward must send a clear message to the dissident republican groups that we do not want another campaign of bombing and violence which will achieve nothing,” he said.
"It is important that we stand together and send a clear message that we want this campaign stopped in this city.”
The dissident group, the Real IRA, recently bombed the Ulster Bank and a row of shops in front of Da Vinci's Hotel on the Culmore Road in Derry.
The blast happened shortly after midnight - about an hour after the warning was given and while dozens of homes were evacuated in the alert, no-one was reported as being injured. The bank has been badly damaged.
This comes only two months after a 200lb car bomb exploded outside a nearby police station in the city's Strand Road. In that incident republicans forced a taxi driver to deliver the bomb to the front of the police station.
Out of interest - what is the particular reason for posting this and what is your/your groups attitude to the '...important we stand together...' message from the Derry TC?
