From the 1985 Local Elections campaign a leaflet from Sinn Fein candidate John Crabbe running in Dublins South East Inner City Ward. Despite , in this five seater,being fourth after the first count on 1,095 votes Crabbe eventually lost out to Andy Smith of The Workers Party in the final count.
The last page of the Leaflet is dedicated to attacking The Workers Party with the headline “Don’t be fooled by the WP”.
