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

To give a mandate for change. For proactive not reactive policy/decision-making. We need more vision, innovation and creativity in the Dail.

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

Delivery of services, driven by a community ethos and a people first agenda, and to support participation, community engagement and culture.

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

Rattle some cages within the establishment and push an agenda for changing how we nurture community and culture, and deliver our services.
