Vote for Derwin!

category national | politics / elections | press release author Wednesday October 29, 2003 19:39author by Stephen Lewis - Irish Socialist Network Report this post to the editors

Irish Socialist Network call on SIPTU members to vote for Des Derwin.

Irish Socialist Network call on SIPTU members to vote for Des Derwin.

The ISN is calling to all Anti Partnership SIPTU members to rally in support of Des Derwin in his candidacy for the position of vice president of SIPTU. Des is a true example of a committed grassroots activist and we have no hesitation in offering our support to his campaign.

Des, a radical socialist, has a history in engaging in trade union activism and solidarity and his election will be a blow to the Partnership process that has neutered the Trade Union movement for years. His profile amongst his fellow TU members has given him the base necessary for any contender representing a progressive alternative to Partnership.

The ISN call on all other progressive organisations to rally to Des's campaign as a possible basis for greater left unity at grassroots level.
