since such a government will pursue the same policies as the outgoing discredited Greena Fáil coalition.
Foreign Affairs Minister Mícheál Martin is voting no confidence in his leader the Taoiseach Brian Cowen next Tuesday –

UNITE CALLS ON MEMBERS TO VOTE LEFT
The UNITE trade union, the second largest union in the Republic of Ireland has called on all working people to vote for a left wing government in the general election likely to be held in March.
“Workers should use their vote in the upcoming general election to bring about a left-wing government for the first time in the history of the state,” said Jimmy Kelly, Regional Secretary of Unite the union.
UNITE is an affiliate member of the Labour Party, and is encouraging the party to look left for coalition partners rather than to the old order of Fine Gael.
