Rabbitte to resign as Irish Labour Party Leader
RTE is reporting that Irish Labour Party Leader, Pat Rabbitte, is to resign at 3.30pm today, bringing to an end nearly five years in charge.
Mr Rabbitte has been under internal pressure since the spring general election in the South and a poor showing by the Labour Party after entering an electoral pact with the main opposition party Fine Gael.
More later.
