I\'m an honest, hardworking politician and through my past four years in the Dáil, I have a good track record of holding the system to account.
I have a number of priorities. Public housing, public land, public health, public transport - all underpinned by climate action. Everything must be underpinned by action to the climate emergency.
I don\'t think this is a good question as everything takes time. It\'s important to work with like-minded people to come up with sustainable solution to problems like homelessness and housing. These crises are not inevitable and there are sustainable solutions.
