Young Ireland: Buy Irish

Young Ireland: Buy Irish was a group active in second level schools and some colleges in the 1970s, 1980's and to some degree in the 1990s. They published a newspaper distributed throughout the schools, had a number of exhibitions, published articles in local media and shot some videos in VHS format for their campaigns. The aim stated was where the price and the quality was right, to buy Irish. Organised through the educational system, it was backed by some companies, most notably the Killen cleaning products company. It had two logos, the oldest being a circle of people around a centre point.
