Scallan is a pro-life campaigner. He is Dublin cumann leader for the party.

Because the current political system has failed the Irish people. It’s time to put the State back its box and put power back in the hands of ordinary families and communities.

To support local democratic initiatives and let communities decide on those issues that most affect them. In Dublin Bay South, those issues are unwanted incinerators blowing smoke into communities and forced bus corridors.

I believe in the State getting out of people’s way and letting them thrive, so I will be promoting initiatives like the Terenure Enterprise Centre to help people with big ideas and very little capital to make Dublin Bay South a great place to live and work.
