Recent developments in European Fascism
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Saturday 3rd of September at 6:00 p.m a memorial stone was unveiled in memory of Socialist Republican Peter Daly in Monageer (Enniscorthy) Co. Wexford on Saturday the 3rd of September 2011 at 6.00 pm. Peter fought with the Irish contingent of the International Brigade in the war against fascism in Spain and died in September 1937. He had been reared and went to school in Tinnacross and later Monageer. His life was spent in the republican and working class movement in Ireland and England before volunteering to fight for the Spanish Republic.
The unveiling was followed by the launch of the Peter Daly Society the same evening which was attended by progressives seeking to promote socialist solutions to current problems by regular public debates/discussions in County Wexford. The guest speaker at the launch was Spanish Civil War historian Harry Owens and the Cuban Spanish Ambassador Teresita Trujillo. The evening's entertainment was provided by popular folk singer Pol Mac Adaim from Belfast. |  |
