Greening the Post Boxes -- DIY!

Over the past week over 50 Post Boxes across the North have been painted back to their rightful shade of Green.

The organisers behind the 'Green Post Box Campaign' are using the initial burst of action, as a way to promote the initiative, and encourage every young nationally minded person, to play a part in this public service and 'Do It Yourself!'

An Ógra Shinn Féin spokesperson said,

"Activists have been engaged in the greening of post boxes across the north in the previous week, to assert proudly and very visibly that we live in Ireland, and our post boxes should be green."

"This is a practical manifestation of the All Ireland agenda, a novel way in which young nationally minded people can promote their Irishness and highlight the folly of partition. The young people involved in these actions are simply providing a public service and should be applauded for saving 'An Post' a job of work when we achieve Irish unity."

"The greening of northern post boxes is a job for all young Irish people. The campaign has started, its time to get your bucket of green gloss, paint brush and 'Do It Yourself!"
