If we want #MoreWomen we need to talk to men. Looking forward to interviewing An Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD on #IWD2021 in what I believe is the first male politician to be interviewed for the @women4election ’In Conversation With’ series?

Great to see @peterburkefg progressing the Moorehead recommendation to remunerate Councillors in line with standardised pay and conditions.

This will help make it possible for #MoreWomen to put themselves forward for election.
