Biography

Barry lives in Kilkenny and graduated in political science from UCC. Son of an Irish mother and a French father, he wants to ensure improved amenities for rural areas and tackle crime if elected.

Question time
Why did you decide to run in this election?

The radical Kilkenny boundary change, to represent Kilkenny voices in Tipperary North and to see FG/FF out of government

What do you think is the greatest issue the country faces right now?

The FF/FG cost-of-living crisis feeds into their housing crisis which in turn is causing record emigration of my friends and family out of our country.

What would you like your first speaking time in the Dáil to be about if you get elected?

Northwest Kilkenny issues - changing the Kilkenny boundary back, Freshford Flooding relief, Urlingford and Johnstown future development plans.
