Question time
Why should someone vote for you?

A credible track record, an unrelenting passion for helping people and a commitment to continue escalating the concerns of Louth and Coastal Meath at a national level.

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

My number one priority is ensuring the government keeps the interests of the people and businesses of our border communities at the forefront as we deal with the impending consequences of Brexit.

What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?

Take up a seat on the government side of the house - where I will have an even stronger platform to represent the people of Louth and Coastal Meath.
