‘One Joe Higgins more effective than five Sinn Féin TDs’

JUST one Joe Higgins is immensely more effective than all five of the Sinn Féin TDs, according to Labour leader Pat Rabbitte.

Attacking Sinn Féin’s track record, Mr Rabbitte said the party works hard at getting elected but had no policies to speak off, apart from issues to do with the North. He also questioned whether the republicans posed a threat to his party.

“I don’t know. I don’t see it on the ground,” he said.
