“The Cork Star” anonymous ‘Dirty Tricks’ anti Sinn Fein Newsletter distributed on Corks Northside
“The Cork Star” a folded A3 (four pages A4 format) leaflet distributed anonymously on the Northside of Cork during the election campaign. It is said that it was intended to circulate it across the city but it was pulled after circulation in parts of the North East and North Central wards. The leaflet targeted Sinn Féin and was clearly put out by persons or party who had a lot to lose from a resurgent Sinn Fein.
Many thanks to the sender, who I quote above.
