Strabane's Dan is Elected to SDLP Party Executive!

West-Tyrone Constituency Representative Daniel McCrossan has been elected to the SDLPs Party Executive at the party’s annual conference held at the Armagh City Hotel.

On Saturday evening prior to the Leaders speech Mr McCrossan addressed the conference on his vision of a new politics for a better Ireland and how he believed the SDLP will be instrumental in that process, he explained how he believed in the SDLP and how it could become the party of the people once more. McCrossan was then elected to the Party Executive following a significant number of first preference votes from party colleagues across the region.

Following his election Mr McCrossan said “I felt the Party Executive required younger members with fresh ideas, motivation and energy who worry for their future on this island. I am pleased that the delegates at conference were willing to place their trust in me and shared my vision of a stronger SDLP for all and a radical political voice for the people of North once again.”

“The new Party Executive will now meet within the next two weeks and all 14 members will outline the future steps of how they we can rebuild the organisation. The Executive body will meet every month with the leader and other high ranking officials to report changes we feel are necessary.”

“It is my intention to place a Strabane voice at the top of the SDLP Executives agenda, as we the people of Strabane like many others need all the support possible in these already difficult times, it is time to fight back.”
