At this stage from the policies the Greens had moved to a more practical viewpoint. The 1997 election is also when Gormley first won a Dail seat.
What I love about this though is that it includes gushing quotes from the media , “A leader for our times” is good but the best in hindsight has to be “Gormley has been credited with much of the Greens success” ….. and maybe their demise?
From the 2002 General Election a leaflet for Green Party candidate Dan Boyle who was elected in Cork South Central. Boyle polled 4,952 votes.
Christopher Fettes from the 1984 European Election Dublin Constituency.
Fettes is a hugely important figure in the Irish Green Party. Not alone was he a founding member of the now Green Party, It was Christopher Fettes who ‘called’ the initial meeting in 1981 that led to the foundation of The Ecology Party… which became the Green Alliance/An Comhaontas Glas and was renamed again as the Green Party/An Comhaontas Glas.
