Attended the launch of Fianna Fail’s manifesto, REAL PLAN, BETTER FUTURE. Its a plan well worth supporting. Hugh Lane Gallery was a good venue for the launch (and not just because it’s in Dublin Central 🙂 After that back canvassing in Drumcondra and Cabra followed by RTE Drive Time debate in Smithfield with my fellow candidates. Back home for a bite to eat then off to City Council for monthly meeting.Â

Japan
I was proud to represent the Oireachtas Committee for Enterprise, Tourism and employment on our recent delegation to Japan. For almost 70 years Ireland has enjoyed strong diplomatic relations with Japan. Ireland opened it’s first embassy in Tokyo in 1974 In 2025 Ireland renewed and strengthened its presence in Japan
