Trevor Sargent (Dublin North, Green Party)

Unfortunately, the Labour Party was not much better — split down the middle, with one voting for and another against. It is only fair to acknowledge that Sinn Féin and the Socialist Party have been consistent on the issue, including backing the Greens on this vote. The vote was split evenly; very interesting times. The Green Party cathaoirleach of the council, Councillor Joe Corr, came under trenchant criticism from none other than Fine Gael for using his casting vote to oppose the incinerator. One Fine Gael councillor called him a "disgrace" to the chair for opposing the incinerator at Poolbeg.
