Politics. Many young people
are disillusioned with the idea of politics. "Its just a bunch of people
fighting and rioting over flags , parades and the past". Well its much
more than that. Its about Health, Education, Housing, Policing and the Economy to
only name a few issues. As the youth of today we are the future. The future
doctors, teachers , police officers and politicians.
We need to shape our
future by increasing our political activity from an early age. If the young people of today decide not to get
involved in politics then who will run our country in the future? The SDLP
Youth have a lot to offer the people of the Derg DEA and the Strabane District.
The SDLP Youth believe in the support of the Irish Language , Student Safety,
The Scraping of Tuition Fees and the "One President, One Island"
Campaign.
I understand people may be frightened by
"Going against the grain" and participating in something seen as
uncool or boring but politics can open so many different doors to the youth of
today.
It can build confidence amongst the youth and
can widen the perspectives of young people. So please feel free to contact the
Strabane SDLP Youth or the Derg SDLP where we will be only happy to talk to you
about what we can offer YOU as an organisation.
