Question time
Why did you decide to run in this election?
I believe I have the best chance of taking a seat in Cavan-Monaghan and ending the damage this Government has done. I am happy to stand on my record of effectiveness, accountability, hard work and ability.
What do you think is the greatest issue the country faces right now?
In a rich country to think that we have over 14,700 people homeless, 4,500 of whom are children is beyond disgraceful. This Government has created chaos round immigration, piled pressure on communities and enriched private accommodation operators. We have the scandal of poor and vulnerable children dying and going missing in state care. Carers stretched to the hilt.
What would you like your first speaking time in the Dáil to be about if you get elected?
Accountability and mismanagement of public money. Over 3,000 people have died in hospitals in this country though adverse incidents over the past five years. Nobody has been held to account. This is replicated in so many government departments
