Question time
Why should someone vote for you?

As a young person who has lived all my life in a rural community, I understand the issues facing people in East Galway. Sinn Fein are the only party that have credible solutions to these issues.

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

My number one priority is to revive life in rural Ireland and in our towns and villages in East Galway which are slowly being shut down. There is very little in East Galway to attract young people of my generation to stay and we need significant investment to change this.

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 begin work on the largest public housing programme in the history of the State
