- People Before Profit Alliance was established October 2005 by workers from a variety of local campaigns. Its aim is to reverse neo-liberal policies which place wealth creation for the few over the welfare of the many. Text 'JOIN' to 087 9090166

We linked up with other independent and left candidates to provide a real alternative in the last general election in 2007 and our Dun Laoghaire Candidate Richard Boyd Barrett narrowly missed out on a Dail seat.
After the 2009 Local Elections we have 5 elected councillors. In Dun Laoghaire, Richard Boyd Barrett topped the poll on the first count and took 22.8% of the vote.
The People Before Profit Alliance won 5 Local Election Seats.

People Before Profit Alliance24 weeks agoAn alliance of left wing councillors has called for "anyone who is angry to vote."
The alliance said voters in the upcoming elections should vote principally for left-wing community candidates, and to transfer their preferences "to anyone but Fianna Fail and Fine Gael".
The alliance, which includes former Labour TD Declan Bree of Sligo, Joan Collins of Dublin City Council, Richard Boyd Barrett of the People Before Profit Alliance and Cork councillor Chris O'Leary among others, is calling for a "new Left-Right alignment" in Irish Politics.
