Cllr Pat Kavanagh has told me about a motion of no confidence to be submitted to Cork City Council. Pat has informed me that she will be keeping an eye (as will I) on this motion with a view to presenting a similar motion to Wicklow Town Council.
Apparently three left-wing city councillors have submitted a motion to Cork City Council calling on the council to declare no confidence in the Government in the light of the Anglo Irish Bank bailout.
It is understood that left wing councillors are submitting similar motions to other councils around the country in the next few weeks.
The motion, signed by Cllrs Mick Barry (Socialist Party), Ted Tynan
(Workers Party) and Chris O'Leary (Independent) reads: "Council deplores the decision of the Government to bail out Anglo Irish Bank to the tune of a further 8.3Bn euro with the declared possibility of a further 10Bn+ euro bailout. In the light of these events, Cork City Council declares that it has no confidence in this Government".
The motion is due to come before the Council on April 12.
The longest journey begins with the smallest step. Lets hope this small step will lead to bigger and better things.
