Hendrick previously ran as a local election candidate in Sligo. Her social media shows a focus on Gaza, housing and a change in government.

To offer people a politics of hope. Ireland is one of the richest countries in the world but millions are struggling. PBP offer change based on real solutions to the crises caused by conservative politics. We want to make sure everyone who lives here has enough to live with dignity and security. This is possible, but we need to end 100 years of FF and FG and I am offering that alternative.

Another government made up of FF and FG. It will mean that the housing crisis will continue; people will struggle to get a hospital appointment; wages will continue to fall behind the cost of living. It will also leave a space for the politics of hate as the government allows immigrants to be scapegoated for their decision to leave so many people struggling.

Highlight the need for a government that takes the tsunami of violence against women seriously. Women have been failed utterly by successive governments. One in four will suffer abuse at the hands of a partner and yet there is no serious strategy to tackle this abuse and no serious investment in services that can support women through it. Cavan is one of nine counties that have no refuge.
