It is now less than 5 hours until Fine Gael releases its manifesto. As the Campaign Coordinator for Fine Gael this election, I am honoured to have played a key role in development of our policy platform.
We have a bold, yet realistic and pragmatic plan for Ireland's future.
🪖 Fine Gael have a plan to get Ireland's defence working again. That's why, if elected, we will sit down with our defence leaders in the first week to discuss the enactment of our defence plan.
🤝 Do you agree with our plan? Join us today: https://t.co/mWkQgHBNt9
📢 Fine Gael is proud to be the party of business. If elected, we will bring back weekly business registration statistics to maintain transparency within our economy.
On Saturday, vote for a stronger economy ⤵️ https://t.co/mWkQgHBNt9
So far, we have heard nothing from Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin have given us a ridiculous policy on the NI Executive and a ridiculous attack ad.
It's clear that this election, the only party that's serious about standing up to the Social Democrats is Fine Gael.
I’ve had the privilege of seeing Ognian blossom throughout his political career in Ireland. Whilst we sit on opposite sides of the aisle, I am honoured to call him a colleague and a former associate in Fianna Fáil.
I wish him all the best with his future endeavours. Chapeaux 🇮🇪
I thank my fellow TDs for putting your faith in my as LCC. I hope to deliver on the same mandate in the near future when I can return to the Dáil as an active TD.
Till we meet again!

It is with immense sadness that I announce my resignation from Dáil Éireann. I had hoped to serve as a TD for the whole term, but due to irl election responsibilities, this will not be possible.
My constituents deserve a TD who can attend both Friday and Saturday sittings.

Whilst the Dáil will sit for presumably less than 20 minutes tonight to debate one amendment, the Irish people will be left wondering whether proposing petitions is even worth it.

Only one amendment tabled by the government today - disappointing, but expected in week 1.
What isn't excusable is how of the 15 petitions with the required 15 signatures, not a single one has been tabled by its relevant Minister.

Following legal advice regarding dealing with the OSA as an opposition party, I have halted the development of my bill until my petition pertaining to the same subject is debated in the Dáil Éireann.
Following the debate, I shall assess the suitable next steps for transparency.
We shouldn't have to put up with bureaucrats taking sides on party-political issues. It's not democratic, and it's not right.
That's why I'm proposing a bill to establish a Committee that will investigate the involvement of third parties in the recent coalition negotiations.
Today, I launched a petition to request the results of the Secretary-General to the Government's internal investigation into group staff and bureaucratic interference in coalition negotiations to be released to the public.
For our democracy's sake, support my petition!
With nearly two years of experience in the Dáil, I know the Oireachtas back to front.
One of our great conventions is the LCC being from a different party to the CC to balance and guarantee the impartiality of the presiding officer.
That’s why I’m running for LCC. #bipartisan
We’ve got people running for President left, right, and centre (quite literally). But how many of them will actually stand up against the woke mob?
We all know the best way to build a cohesive society is not to shoebox different groups in society, but see each other as humans.
The ‘cat pics’ channel has been changed to ‘pet pics’. We all know there are two pets; dogs and cats. The channel should be ‘dogs and cat pics’.
Frankly, this is testament to the WOKE nature of group staff. there are TWO PETS. This wouldn’t have happened under my leadership.
The Cathaoirleach has announced that I have recieved the three nominations required to run for Leader of Fianna Fáil.
I know we can do great things again. It's a matter of trust.
