Why we need Independents in the next Dāil

Posted on | February 4, 2011 | No Comments

I have been calling for reform to our political system for many years now, I’ve even had several letters printed in the national press call for such reform, at the time I was a lonely voice in the wilderness. Over the years I have been joined by many like minded individuals and in recent weeks I have also been joined by all the major political parties.

So now that my ideas have seemed to become the accepted doctrine of all, is there a need for someone like me to enter the Dāil?

The short answer is yes, there is, the reason is that all political parties lie, they have lied in the past and will continue to lie in the future, they will promises the voters anything they think that people want , just to get elected, and once they get what they call a “mandate from the people” they quickly forget the promises they gave, the promises that got them this mandate in the first place.
By electing me, I assure you that I will not let them forget what it was that got them elected in the first place and I will use every avenue available to me to make sure that they too act differently by delivering on what it was they promised.

Welcome

to my site, having sat through the turmoil of the last few years, I'm frustrated, I want the Government out and out now, but having thought on it, I came to the realisation that there is no real alternative. All the political parties support and partake in this sham that we call Democracy. So that is why I have decided to run in the next General Election. I want to offer people of this constituency a REAL alternative. There are so many things that need fixing in this Country; the trouble is knowing where to start. I believe that what needs fixing first is our system of Government, giving the people of Ireland a real say in how this Country is run. Real local Government and a smaller National Government. that acts on National issues
