A just society is one that looks after its own

I LISTENED with disgust to Pat Rabbitte talking about a fair society at his first Árd Fheis as leader of the Labour party.

A just society is one that looks after its own

Could he honestly tell me how fair was it to pull one of his party members out of a group going out to Colombia to act as an observer to the trial of the three Irish men, better known as the Colombia Three.

They are Irishmen and are supposed to be looked after as Irishmen, as everyone on this island has this right. Shame on Mr Rabbitte to be talking about a just society. If he is looking for a just society, he would be looking for their safe return home.
