Left of the Year Awards 2002

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Monday November 18, 2002 19:24author by Award Giver Report this post to the editors

It's coming towards the end of the year and it's time to nominate your 'Left of the Year'

The Left of the year must have contributed to the Irish Left in the year 2002. Nominations must be accompanied by explainations as to why the candidate deserves the title "Left of the Year 2002"

Here are a few nominations already recieved:

CLARE DALY. Clare has played a leading role in the struggles in the Airport, more recently in the City Jet baggage handeling dispite. This year she got over 5500 votes and nearly got elected to the Dáil. Also been involved in a range of activities as a Councillor such as campaigning against Bin Tax.

EOIN DUBSKY. Probably most recently noted for his active opposition to the US warplanes in Shannon where he spray-painted a warplane with anti-war slogans

JOE CAROLAN. Joe shot to prominance this year as a leading member of GR. When the May Day riot occured Joe was a prominant speaker on behalf of anti-capitalist protesters that were brutalised. Joe has taken up much of the responsibilities of GR since Rory Hearne's departure.

JOE HIGGINS. Joe continued to be the voice of workers in the Dáil this year. He played a crucial role in the initialisation of the Alliance Against Nice and he was successfully re-elected to the Dáil. Joe also kept up his international profile with a trip to the Social Forum in Brazil.

DAN FINN. Dan is the leading member of the dissedent "Socialist Alternative" that left the SWP this year. Dan was the SWP candidate in the UCD SU elections where the left scored a respectable 38%.

ANDREW FLOOD. Andrew was the leader of the Libertarians Against Nice campaign that succeeded in distributing tousands of anti-Nice leaflets.
