Cllr Micheal Cholm Mac Ghiolla Easbuig

On Friday afternoon Niall Boylan spoke about how locals in Donegal were defacing the English tourism signs and leaving the Irish language version.

A Donegal County Councillor says he doesn’t condemn those who have defaced English tourism signs in the Gaeltacht region.

It comes as a number of the signs including a number for the Wild Atlantic Way were scribbled out leaving just the Irish language version.

Local Independent county councillor Micheal Mac Giolla Easbuig has refused to condemn the attacks on the tourism signs. In fact, he said he encourages anyone who feels strongly enough about the Irish language to go out and take "direct action."
