People are hitting out at Cian Healy after a tweet he wrote seemingly about the Repeal The 8th movement.
All week people have been taking to Twitter to vent their anger about a special Repeal The 8th mural in Dublin that was painted over by Dublin City Council.
Originally created by grafitti artist Maser, pro-choice campaigners had been taking photos in front of the mural, and have now been sharing photos of the plain blue wall.
Taking to Twitter Cian wrote “Ya ain’t alternative unless you’re in front of a blue wall these days” and people’s reactions were not good…
Ya ain’t alternative unless you’re in front of a blue wall these days ?

@ProperChurch Hopefullyy you will get yourself better informed about #repealthe8th & how women are treated as 2nd class citizens.

@ProperChurch I really hope this isn’t about what I think it’s about. But I suspect it is, which is a great pity. Awful stance to take.

@ProperChurch supporting the right to choose isn’t being ‘alternative’ ?

@ProperChurch Are you actually being serious right now? This is so disheartening and upsetting. Thought you were better than this ?
