The former chairwoman of the Young Greens has claimed the party did nothing when she reported alleged sexual harassment. Tara Gilsenan, who recently left the party, says that she and another member reported the incidents to the party and, when nothing was done, she felt she had no other choice but to speak openly about the issue in her speech during the convention. She said a member of the Young Greens began harassing another girl, "and eventually moved on and came for me". Ms Gilsenan says the person would touch her inappropriately and make comments on her appearance and body. "I didn't know what to do," she said. "When I rejected them, it pissed them off, they started talking over and down to me." She said she eventually reported the situation to senior members who took notes and they said they would do something. However, she said nothing ever happened.

I don't think FG give a **** about many things. It's not to be commended IMO.

Solutionking wrote: » Does anyone actually take Pearse Doherty seriously anymore? well apart from SF fans. It was fun at the start as nobody had seen him ranting and raving before, now no matter what the topic is or what the conversation is, it's the exact same ranting and raving. Maybe it is time he tried a new approach.

The only reason the media is running it now, nothing on RTE last night or any channel, is because the majority of people have the video in watsapp It should have been the top story on RTE!!!

A strategy where MOT asked Harris for the contract, and was declined, then asked Leo - Leo said leave it with me, requested it, then sent it off behind everyone's back. A strategy? Leo needs to read my signature. :pac:
