People Before Profit deputy mayor Gino O'Boyle's FF vote in Sligo infuriates his party

Councillor Gino O'Boyle faced backlash from PBP's Cork branch for voting a Fianna Fáil member as mayor, breaching local election promises of not supporting government parties.

Nessa Cosgrave expressed her discontent with the situation, labeling it a 'cosy' deal, and emphasized concerns over left-wing parties forming alliances with traditionally opposition parties.

The motion from Cork PBP highlights the potential impact on PBP's national integrity, asserting O'Boyle's vote contradicts their electoral manifesto against Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael.

The Cork branch's motion emphasizes that any future transgressions by O'Boyle would undermine his membership in PBP, asserting no tolerance for compromises affecting the party's stand.
