Quick overview Tony is Ireland’s foremost intellectual activist on European Union affairs. He has articulated the case for a Europe of independent and cooperating nation states. A stalwart defender of Irish constitutional rights, he has courageously led opposition to successive E.U. treaties during referenda campaigns. Statesmanlike, he continues as secretary of the National Platform to call our politicians, institutions and media to democratic account and professional accuracy. In addition to his academic career in social policy at Trinity College Dublin (1961-97), the other causes and organisations that Tony has espoused principally include: the Connolly Association in Britain; civil rights in Northern Ireland; radicalisation of Irish republicanism; the Wolfe Tone Society; the campaign for nuclear disarmament; the Irish Sovereignty Movement, and the Desmond Greaves Annual School.
