Dear Editor<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So “never been elected to anything” Paul Murphy MEP,\u00a0is suddenly an authority\u00a0on Labour voters (Sunday Times 3rd June) and the Labour Party. For the record, as a member of Dublin City Council since 1993, the voters of Ballsbridge have re-elected me in 1999, 2004 and 2009, along with a majority of voters from\u00a0my own more traditional Local Authority estate. Last time round the voters of this area indeed elected three Labour Councillors out of six.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I suppose they have done so knowing that, unlike Mr Murphy and his colleagues, Rich Boy Barrett or Sinn Fein’s Mary Lou McDonald, I did not have the benefit of attending a\u00a0fee paying school or College or the benefit they and their\u00a0other colleague Claire Daly and Joe Higgins had in gaining\u00a0a Third Level education.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Perhaps, the people of this area\u00a0voted for this working class\u00a0Labour candidate, and indeed many of my fellow Labour\u00a0Representatives, because every single day we practice practical social democracy\u00a0in\u00a0our work as\u00a0elected representatives. We do not try and turn every single issue into the\u00a0pursuit of an outdated and\u00a0ideologically purist search for a Marxist or Trotskyist utopia – irrespective of the consequences to those we are meant to serve.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I did not have to learn to be working class. I am. Like most genuine working class people I want to make my life and the life of my children and community better. I do not wallow in the poverty and misery\u00a0of others and seek to benefit from it – though I regret it, oppose it and do everything in my life to change it.\u00a0It has been my privilege to experience the typical working class life of employment and unemployment, of highs and lows,\u00a0over the years. My one regret is that, as a product of a genuine working class family, I did not have the opportunity\u00a0of being able to command access to RTE – our alledged Public Service\u00a0Broadcaster – that fee paying\u00a0schools and Third Level college undoubtedly\u00a0provides. Pity: there I could\u00a0make the case for real change and not populist vote chasing – but then the populist trendy, pretend concerned, in RTE, don’t want that either.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Yours sincerely<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
