This morning I lodged my nomination papers for election to Seanad Éireann. The all-Ireland economy is growing. Constitutional change is coming. My experience as Sinn Féin chief negotiator and Executive Minister will drive efforts for referenda and Irish reunification.

📢Assembly Refresher Training 🗓️Join us on Wednesday, 27th November, from 2–4:30 pm for an Assembly refresher training session where we will guide you on crafting impactful campaigns and connecting meaningfully with MLAs and ministers, ensuring your message stands out in their overflowing inboxes. 2024 has been a big year for politics both locally and further afield. The Assembly and Executive was finally restored in February. Westminster witnessed a significant shift with the election of the first Labour government in 14 years, while in Dublin, a general election is set for 29th November. 2025 will bring fresh opportunities to influence policies and engage effectively, especially as the Executive begins turning its agenda into actionable legislation.
