a Chara,
As an Irish Citizen living abroad, you should have the opportunity to return and live, raise a family, and prosper in Ireland. A Sinn Féin led government is your route home.
For over one hundred years Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael have led the government in Dublin. Their policies have forced generations into emigration. A return to government by these parties will lead to more of the same.
Under Fine Gael and Fianna Fail homeownership has become unattainable and rents unaffordable. Healthcare workers, teachers, gardaí trades, and young professionals have been left with no option but to emigrate.
The election has been called for November 29th. It is time for a change of government.
A Sinn Féin led government will:
● Make housing affordable
● Abolish USC for average-paid workers
● Invest in education and provide childcare at €10 per day
● End the Carers Allowance Means Test
● We will work to recognize qualifications and experience earned abroad
● Extend Presidential voting rights to Irish Citizens abroad
● Plan and prepare for Irish Unity
In this election make your voice heard. Ask your friends and family in Ireland to vote for a change of government and to vote for Sinn Féin. Share your hopes and views on social media.
In the coming weeks, we will be rolling out events and briefings for Irish Citizens abroad.
Let’s keep the conversation going.
Together we can build a new and united Ireland.
Is mise
