Kildare Sinn Féin have just this week announced the establishment of a new cumann in Newbridge, Co. Kildare which will be seen my many as a new departure in the local political landscape, it comes hot on the heels of local election candidate, Sean Downey’s strong showing just weeks ago. Speaking of the new cumann Mr. Downey explained “we have named the cumann after two great and deserving men; lifelong leftwing Republican Bob Doyle who left Ireland to fight against fascism in Spain and Dinny Barry who died on hungerstrike while being held captive in Newbridge Camp during the civil war”. Their initial plans in the forthcoming months are to highlight and work on issues which concern the people of Newbridge and they are hoping to attract an even greater number of new members.

Chairperson Micheal O Concubhair is looking forward to the challenges of developing and building up Sinn Féin in the area, commenting on the future he said “we want to help bring real change to the area, positive changes that will benefit the people as a whole not just those with wealth and ‘influence’, most importantly this change will be driven by the people and I would like to invite the people of the town to become involved and make a real difference with us”.

Next month will see a public launch of the new cumann in the town with plenty of good music and high profile guest speakers are expected to be in attendance with more details expected nearer to the day.
