Dear Des,

I came across a link below of a good photo of Sam Nolan speaking at a PAYE demonstration in 1980 –

It is on the RTÉ Archive and the administrators are asking for somebody to identify the speaker.

I think that honour should fall to Sam or Helena.

Perhaps, the message did not get through!

Sam Nolan’s funeral takes place on Saturday April 20 at 1.30pm in Glasnevin Cemetery.

The RTÉ Archives Site asked a question :

This week we are looking for help with a photograph taken at  PAYE tax protest march on O’Connell Street, Dublin, on 22 January 1980. Anyone know the man addressing the crowd? How about those on the platform with him?

Any ideas?

The photographer was Des Gaffney.

I did my best, sending this message to Des Derwin
