Green Party candidate in Offaly gets baking for her election campaign
Green Party Senator and Minister of State in the Department of Agriculture Pippa Hackett has taken to her kitchen to bake buns in a last ditch effort to win her first seat in the General Election.
The Senator represented the former Laois Offaly constituency in recent years, after she was elected a councillor and then selected to be a Senator and a Minister by the Greens. The constituency is now split into two counties of three seats each. She is unlikely to win a seat as a TD, according to bookies say Offaly Live. It could end up like some of her buns "a bit disappointing".
