The republican youth movement engaged with shoppers, young and old on the thronged streets of the city centre, encouraging hundreds of people to add their support to the campaign.

Aoife McNaught, chairperson of Na Fianna Martyrs, Ógra Shinn Féin Doire, said,
“The Easter Lily is proudly worn by Irish Republican’s each year at Easter in remembrance of Ireland’s patriot dead. It is important that, as we build a shared, inclusive society that Republican dead, and our remembrance of them, is afforded the equality and respect it deserves.”
“We hope that our campaign to promote the Easter Lily, and achieve equality for it encourages more young Irish people to wear it proudly in their schools, workplace and community.”
“At Easter it is right that we remember those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice to achieve a free and egalitarian Ireland as outlined in the 1916 proclamation. Easter is a time for Irish Republicans to honour their sacrifice and re-commit ourselves to completing their unfinished task.”
