To challenge the status quo. We need a new generation of TDs to lead the fight against the climate crisis and ensure quality public services.
My top priority for our area is to ensure the necessary investment is made in local infrastructure to build sustainable, safe and cohesive communities that will thrive in the coming years. This means public transport, schools, local facilities and safe cycling infrastructure.
Seriously tackle the housing crisis by introducing legislation to freeze rents, strengthen tenants’ rights and penalise land hoarding, dereliction and speculation which drives up the cost of housing for us all.
