Christmas messages from Laois

Map of Laois




A few words from Deputy Brian Stanley

I would like to wish all party members and supporters a very happy Christmas and a peaceful New Year. A huge thank you to everyone for all of their invaluable hard work and dedication throughout the year. 2012 has been a very successful year for Laois Sinn Féin.  The party has very ambitious plans for 2013 and we are very confident that our goals and objectives  will be achieved through the continued support and determination of each and every party member and supporter across the county. 

Go raibh míle maith agaibh,

Nollaig Shona agus Athbhliain Nua faoi mhaise daoibh go léir,

Brian Stanley
Teachta Dála
Co. Laoise

Message from the chairperson of William Brock Cumann, Sinn Féin Mountmellick:


"2012” has been a busy and productive year for Sinn Féin in Mountmellick. 
Our membership has grown beyond our expectations and the skills and knowledge we now have at our disposal puts us in a strong position to challenge the establishment parties and the warped brand of politics they represent.

In 2013 Sinn Féin must stand shoulder to shoulder with all sectors of our society now under attack from the failed policy of austerity, a policy dictated and designed by our European masters and forced on the Irish people by a puppet government. 
We must provide leadership and a voice to ensure that these punitive measures
that have caused so much hurt and anxiety are totally and utterly reversed.

Let us not underestimate the task ahead. 

Our political opponents are fully aware of the advances made by republicans in recent years and they will do everything in their collective power to stop further advances.   
Expect therefore, in the months ahead, a concerted effort to belittle us, to undermine us and to isolate us.
All this because they fear us .

We must move into 2013 first and foremost as proud republicans confident that we can rise to the challenge ahead. 
Go back to your respective communities, organise and give leadership as only
republicans can. 
Provide the people with a real alternative to the discredited ideology of 'profit before people' that is destroying the very fabric of Irish society.

Connolly once said

" We believe in constitutional action in normal times; We believe in
revolutionary action in exceptional times. "

These are exceptional times.
Bobby Sands in his writings said that:

" everyone, republican or otherwise, has his/her part to play in the
struggle no matter how big or how small that part may be."

Simple yet powerful messages from two of our great revolutionary leaders, 
which, if fully understood and applied to our present set of circumstances, will I believe realise Bobby`s vision, that our revenge will be the laughter of our children."
