Carey launches campaign

CLARE TD Joe Carey has launched his campaign and said the election is all about the type of Ireland people want to see emerging.

He also launched a website, www.joecarey.ie, and said he will be maintaining a presence on Twitter and Facebook.
Regarding the feedback he is getting from voters, Deputy Carey said, “There is a clear message coming back from the doorsteps – people want change. I believe Fine Gael have the policies and the talent to deliver a better Ireland and to get Clare and the Mid-West back to work. The issues which need to be tackled are jobs, emigration, our health services, investment in education and infrastructure such as water services, continued support for the agricultural industry and the future of Shannon Airport.”
He said his priorities would include Shannon Airport, radical reform of the health system, job creation and political reform.
“I want to be the link locally between people and politics. It’s time to get the Mid-West back to work. It’s time for a new era and a new way forward.”
