Proud of all in @FineGael who have worked on this. Safety in public life is an essential part of our democracy. We must always work, across party lines, to ensure we push back against threats, abuse and intimidation in our democracy
Fine Gael @FineGael Nov 1
Abuse and intimidation towards councillors and candidates have no place in our democracy.

Fine Gael provides safety training, guidance and support to those affected. We all have a responsibility to challenge abuse and protect respect in public life.

Take a read of my Substack post on this below
