This is an 18 min introduction by Brian Leeson (Éirigi) and Joe Higgins (Solidarity) who introduced the 'Assembly For Justice' event in Liberty Hall, Dublin on Saturday 1st April 2017.

The event was organised by the #jobstownnotguilty campaign and included various people speaking in support of the Jobstown protesters who are accused of 'false imprisonment' of Joan Burton, (Labour Party) and former Tánaiste, at the Fortunestown Road in Jobstown, Tallaght, on November 15th, 2014.

Five of the accused are due to appear in court on the 24th of this month. Mr Leeson and Higgins spoke on behalf of the 5 defendants who were unable to speak due to a partial gagging order handed out by the courts two days before this event.
