Waterford election hub

Finally to add, even with Martin Cullen as a senior minister he had to fight tooth and nail for what he delivered, KK were massively opposed to the M9 and at best they wanted an upgrade like the n25, single lane carriageway.

He struggle to get a cancer centre for WRH, so he explored other options and was influential delivering Whitfield privately funded, who built the cancer centre.

He was struggling to get the by pass again exploring other options which led to the private scheme.

Despite being knocked he found alternatives to deliver.

The Uni he came within 1 vote of delivering and set out an ambitions funding/developing plan, what we now see if that plan is SETU Arena, the area was to be developed with real search buildings/teaching buildings etc, Cullen got the chop and all plans halted and WIT starved of funding to who's benefit? Not Waterford's anyway. A struggling Carlow IT now had a TU campus, Wexford is on the cusp of substantial TU campus.

mark o Cathasick on WLR this morning it was supposed to be Grace but she’s on holidays in Tramore . Anyway got an easy ride from damo and very noticeable he didn’t read out one text about greens or mark .

greens were always gonna be a fall guy for ffg, they have a history of shafting other government parties to save themselves, greens certainly havent been helping themselves though….

I note that the gender balance continues to be amongst the worst in the country.

80% of the Councillors are male, and that's something that should be constructive by the parties and the electorate alike in advance of the next general election.

sadly it looks like it ll be ffg for a very long time to come, they dont have any other real contenders and a shed load of people nationally will come out and vote for them, so theyre wont be any major changes going forward….

FG destroyed, full stop!
