Public Meeting People Before Profit Alliance Will launch: Speakers include:
by Leftie Sun Apr 26, 2009 15:52
Why is Vincent Browne speaking at this launch? Is this a debate between people in the SWP, PBPA and Vincent Browne because if it isn't then why have PBPA got a liberal capitalist like Browne on their platform?

Just sped through the document. Not very original, a lot of it seems to be taken directly from the Socialist Party's programme!
by PBPA - People Before Profit Sun Apr 26, 2009 19:57
Sorry as you just sped through the document, what's not very original are your comments. None was taken directly from the Socialist Party's programme- in fact the document was drafted and put together from many people across people before profit. If you check www.peoplebeforeprofit.ie site you will notice a 'An invitation to discuss an alternative economic agenda', which took place in February over a day's workshop. Sorry to disappoint Kikkiman's conspiracy theory of robbing SP document.

Wondering if the document is viewed as a finished exercise. What's important is that the promoters continue to engage with people at grassroots level and take it out of Dublin. It would be nice to input into an alternative agenda.
by Kikkoman Mon Apr 27, 2009 09:23
It is interesting how the spokesperson for PBPA managed to post something that ignored the central questions and criticism raised about their document and also ignored the questions raised by another poster about Vincent Browne.
by supporter - pbpa Mon Apr 27, 2009 09:48
I think it is seen as a finished document with February meeting as a chance for people to come along and make comment, etc. You should still come along on Tuesday to the launch.

Stabillo Boss - PBPA I have done as you suggested and re-read the document. I stand by my original comments.
by Stabillo Boss - PBPA Wed Apr 29, 2009 17:38
The launch of the PBPA Alternative Economic Agenda in Dublin last night could not have been more timely, in the light of today's ESRI report claiming that the Irish economy will suffer the biggest drop in GDP (14%) in an industrialised country since the Great Depression.

Thanks Stabillo Boss for the review of the event. I hope to see photos and reports from other up here and on the people before profit site soon. I know the event was recorded too on video, so I'd love to see that too.

Just seen the PBPA website that there are 13 candidates running yet there are only 12 names. Who is the other candidate? And what is the status of Catherine Connolly, Declan Breen and Chris O'Leary?
