We want to see an increase in support for Labour candidates and an increase in support for our Labour vision and our Labour values of equality, solidarity and fairness. After the election, the first thing I will be doing is seeking to achieve a common platform across the left, the centre left and the green movement to ensure that our policies and our values will make a difference in the next government.
I think the best-case scenario is that it will restore people's belief in the need for decency in politics. Trump and his campaign completely undermined the civility and kindness and courtesy that we should see in democratic politics. It actually is integral to our democracy and I think I hope that Trump's win will restore people's belief in the need for that civility and courtesy to re-enter Irish politics.
