  1. Great trade unionist. Might not always agree with her but she has been a voice for the working class from the bin charges to cuts at the cherry orchard hospital. Helped organise pickets against apartheid in the 80s, secretary of the NBRU etc.

  2. That’s a shame. She always seemed like one of the better ones.

  3. A great representative for her constituents and workers in general. She will be missed.

  4. Thats a terrible shame, one of the best TDs we have.

  5. Damn, it’s not like we’ve good ‘uns to spare. She’s worked tirelessly, so she sure deserves a rest.

  6. Probably sees that like most of PBP’s TDs, she’s very unlikely to keep her seat now SF will be running a proper strategy for their candidates.

    She’s no loss anyway, Gino is the only PBP I’ve any respect for and would happily take SF over them.
