Party Principles

1. The impact of society on the environment should not be ecologically disruptive.
2. Conservation of resources is vital to a sustainable society.
3. All political, social and economic decisions should be taken at the lowest effective level.
4. Society should be guided by self-reliance and co-operation at all levels.
5. As caretakers of the Earth, we have the responsibility to pass it on in a fit and healthy state.
6. The need for world peace overrides national and commercial interests.
7. The poverty of two-thirds of the world’s family demands a redistribution of the world’s resources.

Bhunaigh mé an suíomh seo mar foinse eolais don pobal agus mé i mo chomhairleoir ar Comhairle Contae Fhine Gall ó 2004 go dtí 2009.  Choiméadfainn ar líne é ós rud é go bhfuil eolas air a bheadh fós úsáideach do corr-dhuine. Seachas é sin, bh’féidir go gcuirfinn ábhar eile air; feicfimid.

I set this site up to report on my work as a member of Fingal County Council from 2004 to 2009. I’ll keep it online because there’s info on it which I think some people will find useful.  I might use it for other stuff as well; we’ll see how it goes.

Cad eile fúm? Fuair mé oideachas dlí agus éolaíocht chomhshaoil agus go dtí 2011, d’oibrigh mé mar chomhairleoir do John Gormley, Aire Chomhshaoil.

I have a background in law and environmental science and until 2011 I worked as an advisor to Environment Minister John Gormley.
