Sinn Fein: We won’t put Labour in Number 10
SINN FEIN MP Conor Murphy said last night that his party wants David Cameron’s “disastrous” Tories out in May but won’t help prop up a Labour government.
Mr Murphy told his party’s “choices for 2015” public meeting in Parliament that Con-Dem cuts to welfare and public services have almost pushed the north’s fragile political process to breaking point.
The party’s senior negotiator also met leading Labour and Tory counterparts to set out Sinn Fein’s opposition to further spending cuts.
