Caitríona is from Clare and is a teacher, activist and an organiser. She is active in her trade union and stood as a socialist - feminist candidate in the recent Limerick mayoral elections. A key issue for Caitríona in this general election is the provision of public affordable housing and a break with housing as a commodity. She has campaigned on healthcare, LGBTQ rights, reproductive rights, gender violence, anti-racism and Palestinian solidarity. Caitríona stands for an end to US troops and US military using Shannon and no to facilitating exports for genocide in Gaza in our airspace. At a time of growing inequality, a vote for Caitríona would be a vote for a political programme that puts the wellbeing of people and the planet before corporate profits.

Asch Ní Fhinn - People Before Profit Candidate for East Cork I’m a mother, a worker, and a long-time activist, deeply committed to the well-being of my East Cork community. Having experienced the housing crisis and our broken healthcare system firsthand, I know the realities faced by so many working families. These struggles drive me to fight for an Ireland that prioritises people over profit, with affordable housing, meaningful rent controls, and free, accessible healthcare for all. I’m also a passionate advocate for Palestine and climate justice, pushing for real change through boycotts, sanctions, and radical climate action. Vote for me, Asch Ní Fhinn—let’s build a fairer Ireland together.

Mick Barry has been an activist in Cork for over 30 years and a TD for Cork North Central since 2016. Mick has been a leader of the people power campaign which defeated water charges; fought for real action on the housing crisis and brought a bill before the Dail to ban economic evictions. Mick has helped countless workers get organised and stood with the Debenhams workers during their 406 day strike and stood with library workers, the LGBTQ+ community and migrants against far right intimidation. Mick has also been an outspoken voice for Palestinian freedom and against the genocide in Gaza and is campaigning to demand justice for disabled people, people with autism and for carers, who are the victims of state neglect. Mick is a member of the Socialist Party and believes that exploitation and inequality in all their forms can only be tackled on the basis of genuine socialist change where finally people and planet comes before profit and corruption.

I have a long record of fighting for worker’ rights and against all forms of oppression. I have been an active member of the Communications Workers Union for over 40 years. During that time, I held the position of Branch Secretary in the Cork District Branch for 14 years, I served as a member of the National Executive for 6 years. Locally I represented my union on the Cork Council of Trade Unions for 30 years, I served as President of the Council from 2000 to 2002.

I play an active role in opposing state racism. I was a founder and active member of Traveller and Settled Solidarity and Anti Deportation Ireland.

I am a member of the Cork Palestine Solidarity Campaign and the recently formed Cork Communities United against Austerity and Division, which challenges the far-right across Cork city and county.

Her first exposure to the importance of people-power was through the Fridays for Future climate movement and since then she has been active in a wide range of campaigns to build a better Ireland. She was active in the student movement, has consistently campaigned in support of Palestine, and has been a committed anti-fascist voice. Rural Ireland has been seriously neglected by successive governments and Zoe is running to offer a real alternative and serious solutions to working people across West Cork.

My name is Shane Laird.I have lived here in Cork City for 16 years. I got involved with politics at a young age when my parents took me to protests against the Iraq war. I saw the power of mass movements. I was involved in the referendum for gay marriage.

I have been active in opposing the government's effort to undermine Irish neutrality. I have campaigned to protect workers rights, fight the rising cost of living and protect public spaces. When the far right held a number of rallies outside of the Cork library, I joined the wider community in Cork countered them.

I am running to be a strong representative for the people of Cork South Central. I will fight against the scourge of dereliction and for public housing for all, against the political class and landlords. I will work to improve our city's public transport system to work for commuters and transport workers alike. Finally, I want to help make Cork become a city for all who live here.

Carol was born and raised in Strabane where she has worked in various teaching and educational roles for 30 years, latterly on short-term, precarious contracts.

She experiences first-hand, and campaigns against, the inequalities faced by many in the Sperrin DEA, including the rising costs of living, challenges facing private renters and cuts to public services.

A strong advocate for workers rights, she stands in solidarity with striking workers and is an active supporter on picket lines.

Bernard is a full time carer and has been actively involved in the disability and caring movement for 10 years.

He has been very involved in fighting for the rights of workers, most notably the Debenhams workers, and last summer he spent the entire summer on the picket line supporting Iceland workers for their entitlements.

He co-founded the disability rights campaign Access 4 All and won a huge victory in the inclusion of upgrading of all the lifts to train stations across Ireland in the program for government.

He was one of the 10 steering members in the successful Save Tolka Park campaign and he was one of the core activists in the Scrap The Green Paper coalition, again forcing the government to back down.

Brigid Purcell is a young community activist and worker from Ringsend. In 2021 she ran in the Dublin Bay South by-election to fight for renters, workers rights, decent public services and the environment, and came 4th in first preferences during the local elections.

She has played a role in a number of local campaigns - from the Cost of Living Coalition to the liberation of Palestine to anti-racism work to protecting Dublin Bay against pollution.

20 years of austerity and 100 years of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael has done serious damage to communities in Dublin Bay South. The working class of Dublin Bay South is consistently left behind and needs a principled socialist voice in the Dáil to fight for it. Brigid can be that voice.

“If elected I will continue to defend the vulnerable, support students and young people, stand in solidarity with workers fighting for housing, fair pay and public services”.

I am an eco-socialist, a community activist and a musician. I have been a campaigner on housing, workers' rights, Palestine solidarity, climate action and anti-racism for almost a decade.

I am a renter and a member of the Community Action Tenants' Union. I have stood with the union in opposing evictions and have campaigned with Take Back the City, Raise the Roof and the National Homeless and Housing Coalition.

As a musician, I am very concerned with the loss of cultural space in our city. Along with other musicians, I led the campaign to save the Cobblestone pub from being destroyed and replaced with a 9-storey hotel. This kind of campaign provides us with a glimpse of what kind of city and society we can win if can get organised.

I have been a member of United Against Racism since 2015 and have campaigned against direct provision and for the rights of asylum seekers in that time. Recent efforts by the Government to scapegoat asylum seekers are a transparent attempt to divert people's attention away from their own abject failures on housing, healthcare and the cost of living.

There is enough money in the country to transform our society for the benefit of the many, instead of the wealthy few. To do that, we need to put an end to more than a century of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael rule and bring about a Left Government. I guarantee that if elected, I will not prop these parties up in coalition.

Like all People Before Profit TDs, I will only take the average industrial wage if elected. Public representatives should not earn significantly more than the people they represent.

I have been an elected representative in this community for the past 15 years. I served as a Councillor for seven years, in 2016 I was elected to the Dáil on the back of my involvement in the local water charges campaign among other community campaigns. I was subsequently re-elected in 2020.

In my time as a TD I have championed many causes, most notably around medical cannabis, disability rights, women’s health issues, housing, drug reform and bringing forward legislation around voluntary assisted dying. I am currently the People Before Profit Spokesperson for Health and a member of the Oireachtas Health Committee. Most recently I was appointed as chair of the Special Dáil Committee on Drug Use.

I have lived in Clondalkin since moving here in 1979. I want to continue fighting on the issues that matter to working people inside and more importantly outside the Dàil.

I was first elected in October 2014 on my firm opposition to the water charges and commitment to build a people-power movement to defeat them. I have used my position to make a dfference for working people since. 

In the last Dáil term, I strongly opposed the government’s attempt to roll back Irish neutrality and join NATO. I exposed the corruption of four ministers and won a High Court case against SIPO to force them to investigate Leo Varadkar for leaking a contract. 

I introduced Bills for

• Housing Rights - Rent Reduction and Eviction Ban, 
• Climate Action targeting big polluters - Ban on Private Jets, on Fossil Fuel Advertising, and on new Data Centres 
• Workers Rights - to abolish the subminimum wage for young workers

(You can see more of my work here.)

I am a longtime campaigner for Palestinian liberation and was imprisoned in Israel in 2011 for taking part in the Freedom Flotilla which sought to break the blockade of Gaza. 

I am an ecosocialist fighting for an end to capitalist exploitation of people and planet, for workers and carers to have ownership of our wealth and resources so we can democratically plan a rapid and just transition to a society that guarantees a good life for all.

He is involved in Palestine solidarity activism in Fingal. He is driving a “Make them Pay” campaign to force religious orders to pay redress to survivors of church abuses. He is trade unionist and teacher in a DEIS school.

My name is Bryn Edwards, and I am the People Before Profit representative for Dublin Fingal West, standing in the general elections in November 2024. As a campaigner and activist I have stood with those facing eviction, and I aim to use my platform to fight for more public housing and local services across Fingal West.

I also co-founded Balbriggan Palestine Solidarity which has held fundraisers and vigils in Balbriggan and joined protests against companies in Fingal that profiteer from genocide.

Conor Burke is an artist, gallery technician, and carpenter from Galway and an activist with the Socialist Party and Peopel Before Profit - Solidarity for many years in many community campaigns, including defeating the water charges, repealing the eighth amendment. Conor has stood on picket lines, including nurses, retail workers, and public transport workers. Conor strongly opposes the genocide being carried out by Isreal in Gaza and if elected will strive to use his platform to fight this at every level. Conor believes the ‘’for profit’’ capitalist housing model being put forward by the main government and opposition parties will not address the key causes of this problem. We need a state house building programme to cut across the profit of private property, developers, landlords, and vulture funds and provide affordable homes for all to buy or rent.

Robert is active with the Socialist Party and has been active in the victories for abortion rights and against the water charges, as well as the movement in solidarity with Palestine. These struggles showed what can be won by ordinary working class people coming together to fight. This election takes place in the context of a housing crisis; deteriorating public services; and wages that come nowhere near standing up to years of a cost-of-living crisis. Internationally and in Ireland far-right groups have sought to use these crises facing ordinary people to whip up a racist frenzy and shift the blame away from the profiteers who have created these problems with the support of the political establishment. Robert wants to see a committed socialist fraction in the Dáil that uses its position to build people power movements to fight on the key issues and for a society where human need and solidarity come before private profit.

“When I started in college, living down in Limerick in a house, that to be quite honest, you wouldn’t put a dog in. It was a devastating situation,  and I was paying premium prices – €600 per month – and I saw how there was just a complete lack of housing. We’ve had this housing crisis since I was a child, and I realised the Government can do something about but they aren’t doing anything about it.

Bio

Dave Smyth is an electronic engineer. He’s married to Barbara and they have 3 adult children aged 27, 23 and 19. He is acutely aware of the real struggles facing young people as a direct result of FF & FG policies. Rents are out of control and buying a home is an impossibility for most.

Dave has been a political activist for over 30 years, working with local community groups to fundraise. He has also been involved in Repeal of the 8th, solidarity with Palestine and the fightback against water charges.

Dundalk is a town I’m proud to call my home. I’m a former Dundalk FC youth player, my dad is a local security worker and all my life I’ve seen a Dundalk that’s less than what it could be. This rundown of our communities is the result of the failed policies of Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and their mudguards in Labour and the Green Party. They rule solely in the interests of big corporations, not ordinary people.

I think another Dundalk is possible, one where we tackle the horrors of homelessness, lack of healthcare and poverty through radical policies that put people before corporate profits.

I hope you will give myself your number one is the upcoming general election.

I am a native of Castlebar, a father of four children and a secondary teacher in St. Gerald’s College Castlebar for 17 years. I’ve been a leading activist on many campaigns from Water Charges, Repeal of the 8th, Pensions, Climate Action, Palestine, Anti-Fascism, Housing & Health.

I am the school steward and Central Executive Council rep for my union the ASTI having opposed the government’s cuts to education since 2008. If elected I give a guarantee that I will NEVER prop up Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael. I will take the average industrial wage and will use my seat to build people powered campaigns against cuts to public services.

I’m a 25-year old socialist campaigner, community worker, and part of the locked-out generation of people who see no future for themselves in this country.
I got involved with People Before Profit through housing activism, anti-fees protests in college, and Palestine solidarity because it offers a genuine alternative to the current establishment led by Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael.
People my age are leaving the country in droves because of the cost of living and the erosion of good working conditions, while those who remain are struggling to make ends meet - yet the millionaires and billionaires in Ireland continue to enjoy record profits.
At the same time, they try to scapegoat all of society's problems onto marginalised people in our communities such as migrants and queer people - people who are not to blame.
I am a renter and see no future for myself in this country unless we get rid of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael from the government, and elect a new generation of leaders who can represent the ordinary working class people of all backgrounds in Ireland.

Finbar took a leading role in organising the Meath Says No To Hate protest last year after a local secondary school student was the victim of a hate crime. He has been an active member of Fórsa Trade union, the Community Action Tenants Union and United Against Racism.

Keishia is an activist with the Socialist Party and ROSA Socialist Feminist Movement and works in education. Keishia became politically active in 2016, joining ROSA to fight for abortion rights and bodily autonomy for all. Winning a pro-choice Repeal made me utterly convinced that through collective action and organising, workers and young people can shape our society in all of our interests, and not those of the big business or billionaires. Since then, Keishia has been involved in campaigning against the genocide in Palestine, racism, violence against women, and the climate catastrophe. Keishia has been to the fore in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights and trans healthcare, disability rights, healthcare, education and childcare provision. Keishia is active in her union and fighting for workers rights and pledges to fight for the billions in surplus and Apple Tax money to be invested to provide affordable homes for all and fixing public services.

Through my own personal experience organising workers into a union and going out on strike for union recognition, it's clear that workers cannot wait for their employers or the government to do right by them. We need to organise and fight for the change we want to see!

I was born and raised in Ballinasloe, I've worked in the town for most of my adult life and now work as a support worker with the Brothers of Charity in Ballinasloe.

Currently, I live in rented accommodation in Athlone due to the poor availability of adequate housing in the town.

I'm acutely aware of the issues facing young people and workers that have been brought about by failure on the part of Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil governments to tackle the housing and cost-of-living crises.

Gino O’Boyle is a Community Activist from Forthill in Sligo. He was co-opted onto Sligo County Council in 2015 after the passing of his father Seamie and was re-elected in 2019 and 2024. Gino he has spent the last decade fighting for a fairer Sligo. He has consistently opposed property taxes and rent increases while fighting for local services and public amenities. He has also played an active role in Right2Water, and the Cost of Living Campaign and is currently a member of the Sligo Palestine Solidarity Campaign. Gino has also been a local voice for the victims of Mother and Baby Homes. He says:

“Sligo has been left behind for far too long. Despite having a surplus of €24 billion, the government has failed to provide social and affordable housing or decent public services. A vote for Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael guarantees more of the same. People Before Profit offer positive change. We won’t prop up the conservative parties that have left millions struggling – we will fight for a fairer Ireland that treats everyone with dignity and respect”.

Diana O’Dwyer has been a socialist activist for nearly 20 years. She has campaigned against water charges and for repeal, housing action and to stop the genocide in Gaza. She currently works as a researcher for People Before Profit. 

Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael have run this country for 100 years. They have made corporate landlords, vulture funds and big business very rich while creating a housing disaster and running health, education, childcare and disability services into the ground.  

People Before Profit would use that wealth to directly build social and affordable housing, clear hospital waiting lists and provide free public childcare and quality education for all. We also need radical climate action that makes people’s lives better, not harder. That means low cost publicly-owned renewable energy, expanded free and frequent public transport and paying farmers properly to protect biodiversity and climate.

I’ve lived in Waterford since 2016 to study at W.I.T. Over the years, I’ve worked in different sectors and volunteered with local groups. I’ve been politically active on key issues like housing, education, and mental health, which remains a serious concern due to the lack of services in Waterford.

In 2022, as the first SU President of S.E.T.U, I represented over 10,000 students on issues like accommodation, cost of living, and fees. Now, with this experience, I’m ready to take the next step and fight for real change for Waterford at the national level.

Martina is from Wexford and has been an activist and organiser for years on issues such as the cost of living, housing and gender- based violence.
