New candidate to run in Northwest Kilkenny / North Tipperary
Another candidate announced in the new Northwest Kilkenny / North Tipperary constituency
Tipperary councillor Jim Ryan has announced his intention to run as an Independent candidate in the forthcoming General Election for the North Tipperary / Northwest Kilkenny constituency.
“Over the last number of days I have spoken to my family, friends and most loyal supporters and we are all in agreement that now is the time to run,” he said.
“I have the political experience needed to become a TD having served as a councillor now for over 25 years. At 51 years of age time is certainly on my side to serve my constituents for many years to come.
“I want to bring a sense of decency, respect and accountability back to the role of a TD and if elected I will be a voice for everyone.
“There are certainly a huge amount of challenges and problems facing us as a country and in my opinion we need a new, fresh, strong, sensible and honest approach to the way Ireland is run.
“I am offering an alternative strong Independent choice for the voters of Tipperary North / Northwest Kilkenny.”
