A right wing and anti-nationalist participant member of Robert McCartney's United Kingdom Unionist Party has been welcomed back into the LP by leader Pat Rabbitt and national organiser Pat Magnier.

Having applied to join Dublin NE branch, Cruise O'Brien was blocked by Tommy Broughan but was welcomed as a new member by HQ via Howth Branch.

This is clearly a new low by the LP and no doubt will further disturb many members. This is a added to a long list of worring actions being taken by the new Labour Leadership under Rabbitt.
