Arthur Morgan (Louth, Sinn Fein)

I will begin by expressing my support for the republican wing of the Progressive Democrats in the struggle for the leadership of the party. It is not exactly my own brand of republicanism but I have heard the Minister proclaim it loudly on many occasions. Unlike mine, it is not anchored in the 1916 Proclamation. We have differences but given that the Minister's leader has never proclaimed any brand of republicanism, we will stick with Deputy McDowell for now.
