Protest prevents Ahern from speaking in Galway
03/02/2009 - 07:53:09

An event being attended by former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern had to be cancelled last night after student protestors engaged in scuffles with the Gardaí.

Mr Ahern was due to speak at the Literary and Debating Society of NUI Galway.

However, around 50 students protesting against the possible reintroduction of third-level fees staged a sit-down protest at the entrance to the college and blocked Mr Ahern's entrance to the event.
