Guardian office defaced by ‘white genocide’ posters
STAFF arrived at The Gorey Guardian office in the Market Square on Monday morning to find the front door of the premises had been defaced with two deeply offensive and racist posters. The A3 and A4 posters promoting the ‘White Genocide Project’, which were glued to the door, were promptly torn down, and the matter was reported to Gorey gardaí.
A spokesperson for Gorey Garda Station said they are looking to hear from anyone who may have seen someone putting the posters on the door. They said they haven’t heard of any other such incidents locally, and are also making enquiries if the posters appeared anywhere else in the country.
A website mentioned on the posters referred to an international day of action on March 21, and it’s thought that a supporter in Gorey saw the website and decided to take action. A spokesperson for the Guardian said they were ‘ baffled’ by the motivation for the vandalism.
