People's Movement (Irish: Gluaiseacht an Phobail) is an Irish pressure group which campaigns on a number of issues such as protecting Irish neutrality and against greater European Union integration. The movement has also campaigned against the war on Iraq and the use of Shannon Airport by the US military.
The group actively campaigned against the constitutional amendment to ratify the (Treaty of Lisbon) stating that it would increase Ireland's involvement in military commitments of the EU,[1] compromise workers' rights and reduce the accountability and power of the national parliament of Ireland.[2]
