Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5saw the debate last night and she can waffle as well as the best of them- she'd feel very at home at a meeting of Mayo County Council.
"At protests around the country in support of Maura Harrington's brave hunger strike, and the stance of the local fisherman to defend their fishing grounds, the Labour Party placards that have been so visible in the past were notably absent. As far as support in the current fight against Shell, Labour (and Labour Youth- are they still going?) was invisible."

Labour Youth fully supports Shell to Sea and the actions taken to defeat this project
Ef is right, in that in some area, LY have done good work on S2S. However, EF, that shouldn't mean the softness of the Labour Party on the issue of natural resources should go uncriticised. The fact that the position of the Labour party on the current economic crisis is in line with the bosses' concensus (ie: bail out the fat cats, let the population eat cake), IMO tells people all they need to know about the politics of that party. That's not to say LY doiesn't have some genuinely good activists.

"Labour Youth fully supports Shell to Sea and the actions taken to defeat this project"
Supporting something is useless unless it is backed up by action. Whilst Labour Youth have done some good activism around the issue I think they constantly overstate this to recruit people. They did nothing during the hungerstrike or the attempts to stop the solitaire.
