Doolan launches campaign for re-election. "Campaign will be positive, proactive and people centred"
Published: 28 March, 2009
Sinn Féin Dublin City Councillor Daithí Doolan has today launched his campaigned for re-election in Dublin's South East Inner City. Doolan claimed that his campaign will be, "positive, proactive and people centred."
Speaking at this morning's launch, Councillor Doolan said, "Since the last local election in 2004 the world has been turned upside down. The old certainties are gone. Here in Dublin's inner city the challenges are immense. People face an unsure future, with a daily diet of dole ques and cutbacks. Now is a time for co-operation and solidarity within communities in Dublin. If re-elected I will work in coalition with communities across the inner city and with all parties in City Hall to deliver jobs, homes and a safer, cleaner environment."
Doolan said a priority for Dublin must be jobs, "We face an economic crisis in Dublin that will not affect every community equally, with some neighbourhoods being affected worse than others. We must avoid creating the economic black spots of the 80's. The priority must be jobs and training. Political representatives need to show leadership and work with all sectors of society and other parties to keep Dublin working. I am currently Chairing the Dublin Economic Task Force which is working with all statutory agencies, including the IDA, FAS and Enterprise Ireland to ensure we fight for every job in Dublin. That task force will be action based and will be meeting again within 2 weeks to agree a work plan."
In conclusion Doolan said, "all seats and all votes are up for grabs, its now up to the people to decide who they think will best run this great City." ENDS
