by Daniel Glesson - Free Gaza Now

Have the Labour party gone soft on Gaza?

Can anyone assist with my question. On monday night a motion was put to the floor of Dublin City Council by a Councillor from Sinn Fein. The motion called was a condemnation of Israel for it brutality on the people of Gaza.

The motion was supported by Sinn Fein, Fine Gael, Greens and Independents. I am hearing that Labour and Fianna Fail opposed it and that Eric Byrne, the former TD, was the most vocal in calling for equal condemnation of the Palestinian side!

I emailed Cllr Eric Byrne on Wednesday, resent it earlier today and to date recieved no reply.

It seems incredible that members of the Labour Party, who by and large have been really solid on the issue of Palestine could be so lilly livered this time round.
