From Solidarity to Stormont

Mark Devenport | 15:08 UK time, Monday, 21 February 2011

The SDLP recently unveiled a Polish and a Portugese candidate for Craigavon council. Today they confirmed a Polish Assembly candidate for East Belfast. Magdalena Wolska is no stranger to Stormont - she arrived in Belfast four years ago with £100 in her pocket, got a job in the Assembly canteen, then moved on to work as a Stormont security woman, where she was always a colourful character around the Great Hall. With a family background in the trade union "Solidarity" she has now left the Stormont staff for work in a private sector firm - whether she returns as a politician (given the likely packed field in East Belfast) is open to doubt, but if she did she wouldn't need anyone to show her around the building.
