Labour Party give the two fingers to socialism

category dublin | politics / elections | news report author Thursday June 23, 2005 18:14author by Leftie Report this post to the editors

How low can you go?

If ever a sign was needed of how far the Labour Party is becoming removed from the working class it once claimed to represent, well here it is, choosing this chancer.

Former Lord Mayor of Dublin (and sometimes Indymedia contributer!), Councillor Dermot Lacey, was recently elected the first-ever Labour Party Cathaoirleach of the Dublin Regional Authority.

Speaking after his election Councillor Lacey said he was delighted to be elected the first Labour councillor to lead the Authority. He wants "the Authority to be the voice of and for Dublin" and to "campaign for real reform of our antiquated system of Local Government including the direct election of a Lord Mayor for the entire Dublin Region.

"The people of Dublin have been badly let down by Government in terms f finance, structures and resources and it is long past time that Dublin began to exert itself. It is time quite simply to stand up for Dublin.

"I hope during my term of office to be an advocate for Dublin and to challenge all public bodies to deliver a better deal for our county."

The Dublin Regional Authority is comprised of 29 members drawn from the Dublin City Council and the Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown, Fingal and South Dublin County Councils.

Councillor Dermot Lacey has served on Dublin City Council since 1993 and represents the Pembroke area of Dublin South East.
