A man who was holding a hunger strike outside Cork City Hall has ended his campaign this evening.

Gary Coleman started his protest on Monday around 5pm just as the bi-weekly City Council meeting was starting.

Mr Coleman from Southern Road wants water charges abolished.

He had said he’d maintain his strike until he got a response from the Government,

or until October 25th when an anti-water charges protest will take place in Cork City.

But today he decided to end his hunger strike and join a political movement.
