The farmer, who has been very vocal locally since carrying out the act, wished to remain anonymous when chatting to Galway Beo just hours after two bags of dry cow poo were thrown in the direction of TDs Ciaran Cannon and Anne Rabbitte at a public meeting to discuss plans recently approved by An Bord Pleanala for a Biogas facility outside Gort.
Both Government officials were at the meeting in Gort on Wednesday night over the controversial Biogas plant which has been given the green light when the Gort native approached the microphone "and threw one bag towards Cannon before lobbing a second in the direction of Minister Rabbitte.
The man then left the meeting but re-entered later and remained in close proximity to the two TDs.
