Newry Republican Youth

This group has been set by and for young Republicans from Newry. Newry has always been at the forefront in the fight for Irish freedom. Sadly we have lost 22 brave Volunteers who were killed in action during this war and this site is a tribute to those brave men who paid the supreme sacrifice. We must also remember the innocent citizens who were brutally gunned down by the Crown Forces and the numerous residents who suffered daily harrassment for decades.
The people from Newry can always be relied on when the going gets tough. We have some of the worst riots imaginable in areas such as Derrybeg and Barcroft, we met violence with violence.

We hope that this site can also be used for constructive debate and we look forward to hearing different peoples views on the current political situation, regardless of which group you support whether it's Provisional Sinn Féin, Republican Sinn Féin, éirigi, 32csm, the Republican Network for Unity or the IRSP. A site like this essential as there is nothing in the Newry area for young Republicans. Less and less young people are becoming involved in Republicanism and there seems to be an increase in anti-social behavior. We hope that through this site more young people will become involved in Republicanism.
