SF Election Posters Destroyed And Dumped At Kilkeel Harbour
Several Sinn Fein election posters in the Mournes have been destroyed and dumped at Kilkeel Harbour.
Sinn Féin MLA and Westminster candidate in South Down Chris Hazzard said the destruction of 70 of his election posters was a sign that people are afraid of the momentum and positivity around his campaign.
He said: "Clearly some people are afraid of change and the positive momentum around Sinn Féin's campaign in South Down. There were also large posters destroyed showing Sinn Féin's support for the campaign to save services at Daisy Hill Hospital.
"Despite this anti-democratic vandalism the Sinn Féin team in South Down will not be deterred and we will continue to offer the people of the constituency a fresh, positive, equality based alternative."
