    Anyone except a MacManus. They helped the movement in SL over the years but stagnated the party and hindered it from growing the way it should have over the last 10 years.
    A new candidate along the lines of Des Skeffington is required. The problem is to find such people is hard in an organisation that is controlled the way it currently is!

    WE in labour have now succeded in that clensing process and have young canditates with some profile in place.
    It is now the orginasation and its members that are in control.
    All is left to do is get selection conventions organised and let the grass roots decide.
    This will be done in the next few months.
    There is a bright future for labour in the area.

    glad to see we are 2 years ahead of SF in terms of the clensing process
