I would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who helped secure my re-election to the Seanad. I’m really appreciative of the kind messages of support that people have sent me. It is an honour to be re-elected and I will use the next term to continue the fight for Seanad reform; to stand up for the arts, culture and heritage; to demand better sexual health services across Ireland and to protect our precious environment. You can read more about me here.
