Question time
Why should someone vote for you?

I have a record of standing up to Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, which is badly needed in the area at the moment.

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

To stop the selling off of public land and to build public housing.

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

I would like to put forward a bill which would see the selling of public housing put to referendums.
