Question time
Why should someone vote for you (in 140 characters or fewer)?
West Cork needs a fresh voice in the Dáil. I am a committed community activist, mother of two and I have a strong record of local delivery.
What is your number one priority for your constituency?
Job creation. I want to ensure everyone is able to find employment that pays them a fair wage and is sustainable for all communities.
What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?
We need to roll back regressive cuts that have hit older people hardest. In particular we need to expand home help hours and homecare packages.
