St. Patrick's Day not celebrated this year in Boston

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has drawn criticism for skipping an annual St. Patrick's Day event just weeks after she attended a Ramadan night market.

Mayor Michelle Wu, 41, was a no-show at the decades-old St. Patrick's Day Breakfast on Sunday morning, hosted at the Ironworkers Local 7 Union Hall in South Boston.

However, Wu, who posted online about a Ramadan Night market at city hall just about two weeks before not attending the St. Patrick's Day event, chose to go to church with her family instead, a spokesperson told the Boston Globe.

The mayor's absence follows hot on the heels of a clash with the event's host, Senator Nick Collins.

Collins, a fellow Democrat, has publicly opposed Wu's proposal to avoid a tax increase for residential property owners by briefly increasing taxes on commercial real estate in the city.

Josh Kraft, son of Patriots Owner Robert Kraft, was in attendance at last year's event and had mocked the mayor for the city being covered in scaffolding and smelling of marijuana.

some took to social media to express their outrage at Wu.

'Hopefully people in Boston see her for what she is (an anti-white racist) and don't vote for her again, but knowing how stupid most voters are, they probably won't show her the contempt that she shows them,
