In the jobs market, we hire the best person for the job but in politics all too often people just default to tired party affiliations. I’m a dynamic person who gets things done and a fresh independent voice for Dublin Bay South who is all about policies, not politics.

Representing my constituents is my number one priority. When I lived in Dublin Bay South and contacted all my TDs, only one ever got back to me. I pledge to get back to anyone who contacts me within 48 hours.

As an independent I’d be of course able to bring forward Private Members' Bills and have a number of suggestions.To bring fairness to politics I want rules to end landlords voting on housing and an end to TDs hiring relatives.
