'It's clear they've caved to pressure' - Dublin councillor slams DCC decision to withdraw Herzog Park report
"A Dublin councillor has claimed Dublin City Council (DCC) "caved to pressure" by withdrawing a report on the proposed renaming of Herzog Park from the agenda of a critical meeting tonight."
"The park in south Dublin's Rathgar is named after Chaim Herzog, a Dublin-born Jew who went on to serve as Israel's sixth president between 1983 and 1993."
A report on the proposed renaming of Herzog Park was withdrawn from the agenda of a critical Dublin City Council meeting tonight. The withdrawal prompted accusations that Dublin City Council "caved to pressure". Herzog Park is located in Rathgar in south Dublin and carries the name of Chaim Herzog. Chaim Herzog was born in Dublin and later served as Israel's sixth president from 1983 to 1993. The renaming proposal had been the subject of a council report prior to its removal from the meeting agenda, generating local controversy over the park's commemoration.
