Repatriate Aiden Hulme Campaign

Aiden Hulme was transferred to Portlaoise Gaol in December 2006 following a prolonged campaign for his repatriation. The campaign was notable in its ability to attract support from a broad spectrum of political parties, groups and individuals. A number of Republican groups in particular added their support to the campaign, providing a possible template for future cross-republican co-operation. éirígí continues to call for the repatriation of all prisoners viewing incarcaration as punishment enough without the added burden of long distance travel being imposed upon visiting families and friends.
