Green Party's leader fudges opposition to Shannon warport

category national | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Monday May 14, 2007 16:32author by Anti-war Report this post to the editors

Trevor Sergeant's opposition to incinerators outweighs his opposition to Irish complicity with US military

Trevor Sergeant, leader of the Green Party in Ireland, has refused to take a firm stand on the issue of US troops utilising Shannon Airport during an interview with Pat Kenny (RTE, Monday 14th May 2007).

Sergeant stated that, though against the use of Shannon by the US military, his opposition does not at this moment amount to a precondition for Green Party participation in a coalition. According to Sergeant, the Green Party membership will decide on its criteria for coalition after the election results are in. Until then, there are NO preconditions. Except that five minutes' earlier, during the same interview, Sergeant was categoric that Green Party opposition to the building of an incinerator in Cork harbour consitututes a precondition for its involvement in coalition.

One can't help but draw the following conclusions:
1. Sergeant, in common with much of the Green Party, is a one-issue activist: environmentalism. Other issues – including Irish complicity in the destruction of Iraq and Afghanistan – are of lesser importance.
2. Sergeant – in common with every politician (that's EVERY politician) running for election to the Dail – is prepared to fudge "principals" and policies in order to garner votes.
