Question time
Why should someone vote for you?
A vote for me is for a committed fighter in the Dáil, pushing for a NHS style health system including comprehensive mental health services.
What is your number one priority for your constituency?
Fully-staffed, full-time child and adolescent mental health services provision.
What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?
I would legislate to alleviate the housing crisis through rent control, restriction of vulture funds hoovering up rental property, and fast-tracking the building of public housing.
