This may seem like a small matter but for the people of Kinsale, Piper's show wagon is a big deal. It is iconic. Despite over 2,000 people signing a petition for the show wagon to be returned to Short Quay, Cork County Council is refusing to allow that to happen. It had been there since 1932.

For the people of Kinsale, the show wagon is iconic and has sentimental value. There is tradition associated with it and there are fun memories associated with it. More importantly, it has over 90 years of history. I cannot believe it has come to this but I am asking the leader of the Government to intervene because Cork County Council is not for moving.
