Rabbitte pays tribute to Sean MacReamoinn

Issued : Wednesday 17 January, 2007
Statement by Pat Rabbitte TD
Labour Leader & Spokesperson on Northern Ireland


Sean MacReamoinn made his mark on Irish society as a thoughtful commentator, original writer at a critical time on the role of the Catholic Church in society, as a distinctive broadcaster and as a journalist.


A radical and provocative voice, he was a great raconteur in whose company I enjoyed many extraordinary hours. He will be sorely missed.

Sean made a huge contribution to Irish culture generally and particularly to the promotion and development of the Irish language.

On behalf of the Labour Party I wish to extend my sincerest sympathy to his wife, Pat, daughers, Seona and Laoise and son, Brian.
