Our democracy should truly belong to the people, not be locked away behind political barriers. I’m committed to reinstating Article 48—a powerful tool for direct democracy that would give you the right to call a referendum on major issues with just 100,000 signatures. Imagine having a real say on decisions that shape our nation, from the EU Migration Pact to the Hate Speech Bill. This isn’t just a policy; it’s a path to putting you back in charge.

 

To make this a reality, I’ll bring a motion before the Dáil and work with like-minded Independents and TDs who refuse to be bound by the party whip. Together, we can break the stranglehold of partisan politics and restore the balance of power to where it belongs: with the people. One vote, one movement, one powerful step toward a democracy that listens and responds to you.
