Question time
Why should someone vote for you (in 140 characters or fewer)?

I'm independent. I'm upfront and I call a spade a spade

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

Tackling the housing crisis and evictions. The two of them are interlinked and you wouldn't have one without the other.

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 jail every crooked politician, every crooked banker and every crooked builder.
