We, the Irish Travellers & natives of our beautiful country request formal apology from our Irish State.

there are good and bad people in all walks of life ...but all groups of people should be treated equally.

I agree 100%

This is long overdue , until the apartheid against us travellers is completely annihilated ,institutionalized racism the ingrained hatred has been erased , from the politicians in the dail down to the schoolchildren , the stain on the island of ireland cannot be washed clean until the settled people are educated , DNA has proved some families are the oldest in the country our history is ancient some nations now celebrate their indigenous peoples , I hope the people of ireland in time Will come to realize we are a unique people , An apology to the pavee people would be a first step to a 1000 mile journey ,

recognise traveller ethnic identity&treat the Travelling community with more respect&appreciation,they have been discriminated against for too long already

Irish Travellers are the Soul of Ireland

I dream of wiping away my ancestors tears and replacing with hope and equality. A tiny country must unite with all its people or it will fail to be a land of saints and scholars.

In July 2014, the UN Human Rights Committee the ICCPR (International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights) once again called on the Irish Government to “take concrete steps to recognise Travellers as an ethnic minority group.

End state racism against Travellers.

Its long over dur that we get or rights equality

We have for generations stood, and continue to stand, in the face of injustice, discrimination, dehumanisation and racism.

Signing in the name of justice and equality and diversity

Justice for travellers.

I am so sorry for this loss of lives and tragedy. I cannot believe there units are housing people and that your community have been hit so hard by savage cuts. I hope you get an urgent improvement in housing and recognised as a minority ethnic group in our society.

I can't believe how dignified the travelling community are about this awful tragedy.....they are amazing. I hope the two children in hospital are recovering in hospital and I want to convey my sympathy to them and all the members of the community.

Sincere condolences to the families and friends of the victims of the horrific fire in which so many died. R I P. An injury to one is an injury to all.

Irish Traveller, proud&loud Nothing about us without us.

Signing because everyone was created equal by God, and should be treated as such. Is temporary superiority worth eternity in the lake of fire. Think about it please. Oppressors of any type will not enter the kingdom of God, its not like its going to harm you to give all equal treatment no matter the race. I know others who are not travelers in Europe but being regular citizens, they will vote for those with pure intentions, as we will in 2016 when our presidential candidates compete, etc. Travelers should be able to vote, if not then that should change. Everyone here can vote as long as law abiding citizens,race is irrelevant and voting ballot machine doesn't know difference, it records what circles are colored, no names, and we don't look at race. We have an African American president, in which majority of us voted, most of his votes came from white people like me. I voted for him twice. If we can elect a black president, you can treat travelers and romas as everyone else. Thanks for reading, have a good day.

Injustice for any people is injustice for all people.

I am proud to be a traveller & always will be until I die. TRAVELLERs FOR EVER. ROCK ON. & KEEP ON SMILING We KNOW WHO WE ARE & WE ARE PROUD Of OUR NAME.
