A photograph of a float with actors performing at the Anti Criminal Justice Bill march in Cork, in 1984. The Criminal Justice Bill was a proposed legislation which would have given An Garda Síochána and the courts a lot of power. It stemmed from attempting to clamp down on Republican groups. Many people felt it would undermine their civil rights and opposed it.
