Irish Republican Voice is a political party founded by dissident republicans. The group is believed to be the political wing of the group Saoirse na hEireann (RIRA splinter group), the IRV have denied this though they say they recognise it as the only legitimate army. Members include prominent dissident republicans such as Paul Stewart and James McDonagh.
History
The party was formed in the summer of 2013 by ex-associates of murdered RIRA leader Alan Ryan.
In September 2013 they were involved in anti-austerity protests outside the Dáil. They were also involved in a sit-down protest on O’Connell Bridge which stopped traffic for up to three hours. They later threatened to engage in similar protests in 2014.[1]
