John stated: ‘Like a number of other left-wing candidates, I have made a pledge that if elected I will only take the average workers wage and that I will use the rest of the T.D.’s salary to fight campaigns on issues that effect working people and their families.

Instead we have a distracting witchhunt against a politician with a long, well regarded record of service to the state. ... read full story / add a comment
