Question time
Why did you decide to run in this election?
I’m running in DSC to effect Change - it's time a new vision for our communities is realized.
What do you think is the greatest issue the country faces right now?
While my expertise is in Health, a mental health nurse – Housing underpins every aspect of our lives. A complete step change is not just needed but is critical for a community's well being, especially our younger people - a generation abandoned to perpetual adolescence with no hope of a home of their own.
What would you like your first speaking time in the Dáil to be about if you get elected?
My first speech in the Dáil would focus on our mental health services especially CAMHS, which has been reported as causing significant harm to children- contrary to the medical oath of ethics – First, Do No Harm. Sinn Féin have the policies and Sinn Féin have the people. It’s time.
