| Irish classes for PSNI officers
Published on Thursday 15 May 2008 15:33
Irish language classes for police officers are being held weekly at Limavady PSNI station, the 'Journal' can reveal.
The two-hour classes are held each Wednesday, between 7-9pm.
Limavady Insp. Tony Callaghan said the classes are being held for police officers across the region and are hosted at the Limavady station because a conference room, which is used as a classroom, is available. He also said the initiative was happening in other areas.
Mr. Callaghan did not have a figure as to how many officers were taking the class.
Limavady Sinn Fein Colr. Cathal OhOisin said he felt it was important police officers were able to speak Irish because there were several Irish language schools in the area, referring to the importance of delivering the "Stranger Danger" message to schoolchildren.
"It's good to see it," he said. "I hope many police officers take it up."
Chief Insp. Clive Spence, Acting Area Commander for Limavady, said posters in Limavady police station accommodate more than 50 languages, including Irish.
Chief Supt. David Hanna said the PSNI Deputy Chief Constable was looking for police officers to learn the Irish language to translate a community safety program - CASE.

| Indeed, a complete waste of money, yet more money wasted on promoting Irish culture. In these hard-economic times, there can be no reasonable explanation given for wasting time, money and police resources on such utter nonsense, yet our politicians remain silent.

| Remain silent sums them up. Nelson McCausland drew attention to the fact that at a meeting in Conway Mill a leading member of sinn fein declared 'that every sentence spoken in Irish is another shot in the fight for Irish freedom' They coudn't make it more plainer than that and yet we have this sort of thing continuing to happen. It seems to me that the police,those in the Prod schools,those who attend Irish classes in Sandy Row,the Shankill and other loyalist areas want to play THEIR part in this fight for Irish freedom too.
We don't hear Nelson saying so much now. Though maybe he fed-up or else hes sold out.

| Aye, I think what happens is people just grow to accept all this crap as it's just one thing after another. This is when the evil poses it's greatest threat.. unfortunately very few want to open their eyes or ears to what's happening all around us.

| Well as long as there are those like yourself RSAUB to keep the flame alight even though it might burn low at times I'd say there is hope. Our brief I believe is to be always there to point out what is happening around us to those who may not be aware. To be a voice in the wildnerness of deceit and lies. To be the still small voice in the background proclaiming the truth.
