A strong Dublin in a strong Europe
Dublin is where I went to school, raised my family and spent most of my working life.
Dubliners want a world-class European city defined by equality and opportunity - underpinned by an economy that works for people and not the other way around
That means helping small businesses to thrive alongside multinational companies and supporting families so they can live close to where they work or in the communities in which they grew up.
It means planning to solve future infrastructure problems now and protecting the unique environment in which we live.
I’ve been delivering change and reform since I was a social worker in Ballymun in the 1980s. We need experienced people to represent us in Europe and I will ensure that the needs of the city and county of Dublin and our country are brought to the heart of the European Parliament.
