Basically, the position of the leadership of the Officials is that there is no hope of achieving National Liberation until such time as the Protestant and Catholic working class in the North are united and therefore there is nothing which can be done in political terms or in any other terms about this particular issue. Our attitude, on the other hand, is that the British presence in Ireland is the basic cause of the divisions between the Protestant and Catholic working class in the North. It follows from that, in our view, that the primary emphasis should be on the mobilisation of the mass of the Irish people in the struggle for National Liberation. We believe, also, that the left in Irish politics should play a leading role in this struggle. Up until recent years, many of us felt that the Official Movement was capable of and willing to do this. Indeed the rank and file of the Official Movement had expressed their views on this at the 1972 and 1973 Ard Fheiseanna, where they rejected the position of the national leadership on the national question and put forward a policy which would have led to a more militant approach on this question. However, the leadership disagreed with this policy and deliberately frustrated its implementation. The result of this was that the Official Republicans, who, at that time, were the largest single body of organised left-wing opinion in Ireland, deliberately divorced the working-class struggle from the national struggle and gradually degenerated taking a reformist position on a number of very important issues. <b>What issues in particular?</b> - The principal issues that come to mind immediately are the Civil Rights struggle, the Assembly Elections, the question of taking seats and the question of the rent and rates strike. In all these issues, the leadership of the Officials hesitated to take a stand. They have, for instance, regarded the Civil Rights struggle since 1969, as the only struggle worth taking part in. They ignored the presence of 15,000 troops on the streets. They ignored the torture and terror perpetrated by the British Army on the Nationalist population and they acted as though there was no change in the situation since 1969... In other words, they failed to realise the change in the nature of the struggle in Ireland, particularly in the North. They failed to realise that struggle within the context of the Six County State to an outright struggle against Imperialism, as manifested by the British political and military presence in Ireland.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=bookitem&rft.atitle=%E2%80%9CPrincipled+Stand%E2%80%9D+%28Interview%29&rft.btitle=Revolutionary+Works%3A+Seamus+Costello&rft.place=Utrecht&rft.pub=Foreign+Language+Press&rft.date=2018&rft.isbn=9782491182137&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AIrish+Republican+Socialist+Party" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-PD-8"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-PD_8-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-PD_8-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-PD_8-2"><sup><i><b>c</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-PD_8-3"><sup><i><b>d</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-PD_8-4"><sup><i><b>e</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170202000852/http://www.irsp.ie/programme/PerspectivesDocument.pdf">"Perspectives on the future of Republican Socialism in Ireland"</a> <span class="cs1-format">(PDF)</span>. <i>irsp.ie</i>.

"We've found ourselves in a really good position and we want to push this campaign forward," he said. ... Mr Murphy said that housing is the most pressing issue in the current election campaign. "There's a lack of social housing in West Belfast, high rents, and there's a cost-living-crisis," he said. "These all fit into the same bubble. People just can't afford to live anymore. That's the black and white reality of it. "We want to bring rentals in areas of high social housing demand down to what the social housing benefit level is," he continued. "Ultimately the goal of the 'Drop the Rents' campaign is to make private landlordism unprofitable. I'm not going to say that private landlordism is single-handedly to blame for the housing crisis, but it has played a major role in it. There's no doubt about that. The more people we drive away from that the better. Putting more pressure on the Housing Executive to either buy back or build new houses is pivotal to make those changes on a structural level. We're not going in thinking that a single MLA is going to change the structural issues facing the people of West Belfast, but we can act as a serious voice for changing things in that direction."<span class="cs1-kern-right"></span></q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=unknown&rft.jtitle=Belfast+Media+Group&rft.atitle=Election+%2722+-+West+Belfast%3A+Dan+keeps+the+red+flag+flying&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbelfastmedia.com%2Felection-22-west-belfast-dan-murphy-irsp&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AIrish+Republican+Socialist+Party" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-44"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-44">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://irsp.ie/drop-the-rents-success-in-belfast/">"Drop The Rents Success in Belfast!"</a>. <i>IRSP</i><span class="reference-accessdate">.
