Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Why dosnt Cllr. Declan Bree follow his principled collegue and resign from the party and run as an independant.
When was Mr. Cadden selected as a candidate from what was in the local paper it was at a selection convention that he withdrew his name. So how can it be said that he was a Labour Party candidate ?.
At a selection convention nominations that have been submitted are read out and are declared valid or invalid, if there are more nominations than the number of candidates that has been decided by the party to run in the area, then there is a vote. It is the result of this vote which decides who will run.
Now could it be that Mr. Cadden knew before any such vote was taken that he may not have had enough No. 1 to get through the selection process to BECOME a candidate. Could this be the real truth of the situation? Why come out with a load of trash to the media could this a cover up for what was really happening.
There doesn’t seam to be much interest in the plight of Mr. Cadden judging by the number of comments on this page. In Sligo people know that he is not long departed from Sein Fein himself after years of membership and therefore not really in a position to comment on anyone’s political choices or decisions over the years!. He should come clean on his political history now before he goes looking for vote what ever way he wants to “go forward”
It seems that many in the LP a content on moving to the centre and filling the gap being left by FG. In Sligo this is clear by the ease in which mr. mcgarry joined the party. Only a few months ago he voted for privatisation of service charges in teh town, he also was one of only 4 councillors to vote in favour of the LP motion condenming the war in Iraq. He was a member of a right wing conservative party for over 20 years.
