A new politics for a new Ireland

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_column_text]

Why I want to represent you

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”21px”][vc_column_text]

I’m no stranger to public life on the GAA pitch for over 15 years, but off the pitch I know I can make a positive contribution to national politics that will impact the people and communities of the Mayo constituency.

 

Bringing pride, passion and assertiveness to the political field I will ensure issues that matter to you are progressed with conviction.

 

Championing business, families and youth, I’ll be a reliable and trusted public representative holding onto the Fine Gael seat in Castlebar, vacated by former Taoiseach Enda Kenny. Make no mistake, at national politics, policies that transform communities are those that are progressive and relevant to Ireland today.

3 Key Pillars of My Campaign

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_column_text]

Mayo Matters

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”21px”][vc_column_text]

My manifesto was written by my people. Since winning the opportunity to be a candidate over two years ago, I’ve been documenting the issues people care about. From this, I have developed my 3 Key Pillars of My Campaign: My Priorities for Family, Community and Economy. Bringing new politics to life with forward-thinking policies, constant grassroots engagement and problem-solving.

Why Politics? Why Now?

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”21px”][vc_column_text]

I’m part of a generation that has already experienced the best and worst of times. I grew up in a country powered by an extraordinary economic boom where expectations of what life could offer soared but by the time adulthood came beckoning I had to deal with the fallout from the worst financial crisis this country has experienced.

 

My decision to seek election is dominated by an aspiration to ‘make a difference’ by implementing positive change within our society in our towns and villages.

 

I felt there was a gap in the Mayo constituency for a young voice in Government which represents my generation and the challenges we face, for example affordability, housing, climate change, childcare, and the digital and tech era.

Running for election was not on the cards, these opportunities don’t just come around, Enda Kenny has held the seat in Castlebar for 45 years. Politics is about people but it is also about timing and opportunity. This is an opportunity I’m going to grab with both hands.

 

Young people in their 20s and 30s are now the largest demographic in Ireland, ahead of the baby boomers (born 1946-1964) and are increasingly voting in larger numbers.

 

I was raised to believe our opinions matter and that we should get involved in as many organisations as we feel passionate about.
