Today the @FineGael family is in mourning. We are utterly bereft at the death of our friend, Cllr John Naughten. To John’s wife Breda, daughters Emma, Leah and Orlaith, mother, Mary, siblings Marian, Aine, Denis, Seamus, Liam Óg, Joseph and Dermot, I am so sorry for your loss.

Going to miss working with these two wonderful public representatives, and friends 🇪🇺 🇮🇪
Today was the last time we three @dlrcc councillors will sit in a @EU_CoR plenary together. It has been a privilege to work with @EmmaBlain and @unapower both at home and in Europe.

Cllr. Emma Blain (@EmmaBlain) supports the opinion. Cllr. Blain urges the EU to grant support and resources for disadvantaged children and their families, especially those who suffer from physical and mental disabilities. They must be supported with adequate financial support.

🇪🇺Let's ensure the effective use of #EU funds to support projects and initiatives aimed at promoting children's rights, well-being, and inclusion. By working together, we can build a Europe where every child is valued, protected, and given the chance to fulfill their potential.

I look forward to nominating @SimonHarrisTD as the next leader of @FineGael later today. He has an absolute commitment to the country and the @FineGael party. I believe Simon has all of the necessary qualities to lead the country as Taoiseach at this critical time. (1/2)

I’ve known him for many years, (long before his hair went silver)and he is undoubtedly the most dedicated, hard working politician I’ve ever known.Personable and proactive, for these reasons, and many more, I think Simon Harris is the best person to lead Fine Gael and the country
