Image: Rollingnews.ie LABOUR LEADER BRENDAN Howlin’s resignation yesterday did not come as a surprise to those in political circles, but it did come sooner than expected for some in the parliamentary party.
Kelly, a politician who says that Labour is in his ‘DNA’, has never been one to shy away from his ambitions to be leader. As Kelly then failed to get any of his fellow party members to second him for the leader of the Labour party, Brendan Howlin was elected. At the announcement in Dublin’s Royal College of Physicians, there was one notable absence in the room. Alan Kelly.
While there have been difficulties in the past with getting his other party colleagues on side, those issues are understood to be dealt with now, bringing the leadership one step closer for Kelly.Aodhán Ó’Ríordáin is returning to the Dáil for the Dublin Bay North constituency thanks to transfers.After an epic count in the RDS in 2016, lasting several days, Ó’Ríordáin lost his seat.
Labour’s executive board will meet this Saturday to approve the arrangements for the election of a new leader.The last time there was talk about the leadership, Kelly was searching for a nomination from his parliamentary colleagues. However, it is no longer the case that a TD needs to get the nomination by a member of the parliamentary Labour Party. Though it is one option, and probably the most likely one that will be used by those going forward for the race.
