The persecution of Mick Wallace TD

category national | anti-capitalism | opinion/analysis author Monday June 11, 2012 14:11author by Sean Marks - Socialist Party/CWI Report this post to the editors

Rightwing parties have rounded on Mick Wallace, a true friend of the working class.

When the story broke about Mick Wallace's minor difficulty with revenue , there was an immediate orgy of gleeful attcaks from the parties and politicians who are collectively responsible for the impoverishment of the Irish working class.

Mick Wallace's explanation is reasonable and measured. Yes he should have payed, and we can be sure he would have payed had things turned out differently. He did his best to keep his workers in employment, a minor accounting exercise becomes a crime of gigantic proportions in the eyes of the usual suspects the friends of Denis O'brien etc.

The Socialist Party TDs have correctly not called for his resignation. We need in the Dail as many fighters for the working class as possible. Mick Wallace has not been found wanting on this front.

When this blows over it will be instructive to see who stood where. Only the truly principled socialists will emerge with credit.
