Meath Sinn Féin officially launched its local election campaign yesterday at the party offices in Navan. Sinn Féin will be fielding nine candidates across the county and aim to add to their current representation.
Speaking at the launch Slane Area Candidate Sinéad Burke said, “This is a great team of candidates, with a mixture of youth and experience, but most importantly progressive policies that can get Meath back to work and ensure that the county gets its fair share of investment in terms of schools, health services and infrastructure.
"We are confident of increasing our number of five Councillors, but to do that people need to channel their anger at the Government into going to the ballot box and voting Sinn Féin number 1. Sinn Féin are the only real alternative to the failed policies of Fianna Fáil in Meath. Fine Gael are not an alternative, they are simply more of the same whose stated policy is to cut 15,000 public sector jobs. They refuse to identify who – but these are teachers, nurses and Gardai. Sinn Féin in Government in the North has cut health waiting lists, built new schools and invested in job retention. The same global pressures affect the North, but the reality is we are managing it better.
“Extensive work has been done by our candidates over the last couple of years, details of which can be found on our website – http://www.meathsinnfein.ie/. This includes a detailed plan on job creation for the county, a substantial submission on community safety and additional Gardai, and details of our save our hospital campaign. The reception on the doorstep has been great, reflecting our work over the last five years. I call on the public to use their anger and get out and vote on 5th June.”
