The Right has spent much of the last decade railing against cancel culture, and was arguably winning the debate. It would be a mistake to abandon that position now.

Labour and Bin Tax campaign

category dublin | bin tax / household tax / water tax | opinion/analysis author Saturday September 13, 2003 15:06author by No 2 Bin Tax Report this post to the editors

The Labour Party's support for non collection and their vocal opposition to the blockades says a lot about Rabbitte's 'radical' image

Dublin West Labour TD Joan Burton condemned the blockades in Fingal of Bin Trucks. Burton was speaking on Newstalk 106 on Friday when she condemned the 'breaking of the law'. She also re-stated Labour's position of not supporting non payment of the hated Bin Tax.

Her interview exposed a lot about New Labour under Rabbitte. Where the most combattative and militatn worker move into direct action Labour come out to criticise their actions. If Labour claim to be a workers' party why are they not suppoting actions in support of workers conditions and against double taxation?

I would be interested if the Labour 'radicals' on this newswire such as 'durutti', 'daithi', 'cian', 'magneto' et al would please explain their party's position on bin tax!
