Kneecap's vocal support for Hamas and call for fans to murder Tory MPs is obviously reprehensible. But it's just for show, says Andrew Doyle. The police shouldn't waste their time investigating rappers.

Use of British kitchens is an abuse

category national | anti-capitalism | opinion/analysis author Friday March 07, 2008 11:02author by Des - RSF Report this post to the editors

Foreign kictchens bought instead oof our own.

Use of British made kitchens a abuse of public funds
Statement by Republican Sinn Fein Vice President Des Dalton

The use of British made kitchen units in the publicly funded Respond housing development in Athy is an abuse of public funds. Already the sub-contractor on site is in breach of the terms of the Registered Employment Agreement according to the BATU (Building and Allied Trade Union). Workers have been laid off because of their membership of a trade union. Public monies have been used to subsidies ‘black economy’ exploitation, denying workers their right to sick pay, pension and social welfare.

Now it appears that in a publicly funded project a foreign company is being used to supply kitchen units despite the presence of a number of local companies. Also the question needs to be asked how many local young people have been offered either apprenticeships or employment in either the Respond housing scheme or the construction of the swimming pool in Greenhills?

The silence of Athy Town Council on these matters is deafening and it is time they and Kildare Co Council stood up to their responsibilities whilst public money is abused in this manner.

Ends.
