Independent Community Candidate , Cieran Perry has also urged voters to support Joe Higgins in the Euro Elections. His latest leaflet calls for a No. 1 vote for Joe.
"Joe Higgins did an excellent job as a socialist TD between 1997 and 2007, O’Neill reminded voters."
I agree totally , Joe was the real opposition in the Dail all the time he was there in my opinion . I still find it hard to understand why the voters of Dublin West rejected Joe at the last election given his record of fighting for workers rights .But that’s in the past . With conditions in the public services and workers’ overtime pay being cut right now by this rotten government we need real fighters like Joe to stand up to the bosses .
The whole of the left needs to get behind the Joe for Europe campaign whatever their ideological differences . It’s good to see John and the ISN taking such a mature view – and I do see the ISN and John acting from principled motives , not just jumping on the Joe Higgins bandwagon .
The Tallaght People Before Profit Alliance (PBPA) is calling for their supporters to give Socialist Party Canditate Joe Higgins the No1 vote in the European Election.
There is also an agreement between PBPA candidate Pat Dunne and Socialist Party Cllr. Mick Murphy to call on all their supporters to give the other candidate the No 2 vote. This is a six seater and both of them have an excellent chance of being elected. In the 2004 Elections Mick Murphy got over 2500 first perference votes in Tallaght and Pat Dunne got over 2200 in the old Terenure/Rathfarmham area.
Following the boundary revisions both of their support bases are in the new Tallaght Central Area.
Elsewhere PBPA literature is calling for a vote for Joe Higgins in the European Elections.
good to hear a bit of positivity, and unity . maybe now the left can stop bickering and grab the bull by the horns. its there for us people. if a good left alternative does not emerge soon, we r all fecked. lets get out there and work with all other progressives. power to the people
