Large SF delegation at Labour Conference

Sinn Féin has sent its largest ever delegation to this year's Labour Party conference in Bournemouth. The delegation includes Assembly members Martin McGuinness, Mitchel McLaughlin, Bairbre de Brún and Francie Molloy, as well as Belfast Councillor Chrissie McAuley.

Speaking after his arrival in Bournemouth, Mitchel McLaughlin explained that ``Sinn Féin have for a number of years been attending the Labour Party Conference.

``This year's large delegation will allow us to build upon the work done in the past with both the Labour MPs and the Labour grassroots. There is a tremendous amount of goodwill here towards Sinn Féin and the Peace Process. We will use this week to impress upon the Labour membership the important role that the British government has in securing the full implementation of the Good Friday Agreement.''
