Very sad to hear that 23-year-old James Maughan - a brother of Winnie Maughan, from my film Pavee Lackeen, and who had a small part in the film - was found dead yesterday across the road from his mother's flat in Dublin. A terrible tragedy. The scandal is that there is no will - political or otherwise - to address the issues that face Traveller kids like James and leave them with very little chance in life. In James's case with no education, no possibility of finding a job, no direction. What chance that this will ever be addressed?
