Question time
Why should someone vote for you (in 140 characters or fewer)?
Vote for people power, a shared vision. Rebuild our society based on the dignity of ordinary people. Vote for a genuine alternative.
What is your number one priority for your constituency?
Everyone to have full access to their basic rights in order to enjoy a decent life; housing, work, health, education, transport, amenities.
What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?
Stand by my word and principles. Pursue progressive policies, not a career. Challenge the twisted logic of austerity and old politics. Hope.
