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

Because they don't accept that we're incapable of real change, because their ambition for Ireland is greater than that of the stale parties.

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

The same as for the rest of the country: to build a society where people can afford to live, be educated, reach their potential and feel pride.

What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?

Move a motion to hold a referendum on the 8th amendment. The next Dáil can't ignore Irish women as this one has. No more waiting.
