What a fruitcake! She loves the fame she's receiving from this whole scenario. She is a dangerous piece of work.

How shameful it is to read some of these comments...Maura, you are a wonderful woman and better...a wonderful Irish woman!

To give her her full title; Convicted violent criminal Maura Harrington. Let's not forget that she drew her full salary for as long as possible while NOT working, and tried to get the state (which she detests) to keep paying it. You're welcome, Maura!

maura harrington is clearly an uninformed lunatic. look at the bigger picture. saving this little town from the minor damage thats being caused would destroy the country.

[hiline2009]

the kind of woman we need- and not the likes of mary harney

[dazpatreg]

Fair play I respect what she did immensley. And for all those ignorant pricks who like to disdain because some 'culchie' is giving out, why not look at what other petrochemical companies have gotten away with for profit at the expense of safety (BP for example). Shell had the resources to use the safer method but it would cost more to develop. I'm sorry but the majority of Irish people seem to be cowerdly idiots who like to put down on everything because theyre afraid to stand up.

Funny how she never actually "finished" her hunger strike?!?! Attention seeking nutter - drunk & disorderly last year, ended up in jail for it. Pity they couldn't keep her there..
