Jeremy Corbyn: A recipient of both the Gandhi Peace Prize (2013), and the Sean MacBride Peace Prize (2017), Mr Corbyn has been the MP for Islington North since 1983.Ráth Mór founder Conal McFeely said he was delighted Mr Corbyn had accepted the invitation to visit Ráth Mór and the North West as a guest of Creggan Enterprises, and thanked him for his public acknowledgement and support for the Bloody Sunday families.

“Jeremy Corbyn has been a lifelong campaigner for social justice and workers’ rights, and an ardent supporter of co-operatives and social enterprise,” Mr McFeely said.

“Throughout his illustrious career, he has demonstrated a commitment to Civil Rights as a champion of truth and justice. We believe he will receive a very warm welcome from the people of Creggan, Derry and Donegal.”

Eamonn McCann: A native son of Derry, Eamonn is probably the foremost authority on Bloody Sunday.  He was a prominent figure in the civil rights moment and was on the ant-internment march on the 30th January 1972, running for his life with the rest of the crowd.

He wrote the first pamphlet on the killings, entitled, “What Happened In Derry”, which was published in February 1972.  And a few days after the British Government’s first Public Inquiry was released, his pamphlet, “The Widgery Whitewash” was in print

Eamonn is a former Chair of The Bloody Sunday Trust and is a longstanding member of the Bloody Sunday March Committee.
