Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use Hiberno-English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox political party An Rabharta Glas – Green Left (Шаблон:IPA-ga, Шаблон:Literal translation)[1][2][3] is an unregistered Irish political party, launched on 5 June 2021 as a split from the Green Party. At launch, it had two councillors, who had previously been elected as Green Party members — Lorna Bogue, on Cork City Council, and Liam Sinclair, on South Dublin County Council. Its outlook has been described as "eco-socialist".[4]

History

The party was launched on 5 June 2021. It was formed by former members of the Green Party, who had resigned in protest over various issues in 2020 and 2021, including the handling of the Mother and Baby Homes Commission of Investigation report by Roderic O'Gorman, and disagreement over the programme for government.[4]

It was reported to have approximately 30 members on launch.[4]

Lorna Bogue was elected as party leader at the party's inaugural AGM.[5]

In May 2023, Bogue announced her candidacy for the 2024 European Elections as the party's candidate in the constituency of South.[6]

In November 2023, the party's councillor on South Dublin County Council, Liam Sinclair, resigned his seat due to employment circumstances.[7] This reduced the party's representation on local government to one seat as the Green Party had the right to co-opt a replacement for Sinclair, as he had originally been elected as Green Party candidate.[8]

Ideology and policies

An Rabharta Glas is a left-wing green party,[1] described as "eco-socialist". Its mission statement is to "reconstruct the political system so that it serves people and nature, not profit and extraction."[4] The party has stated it favours state intervention in the economy to protect against "vested interests".[1] In terms of food production, the party has been described as favouring "decorporation" and decarbonisation.[1]
