Any views on what the likely candidates will be for Cork East in the GE?

Can anyone tell me how many votes Sandra Mclellan got in Youghal please.

if Kevin and Pa want to be TDS they need to work to try and bring jobs to the area simple as along with tackling the local issues.

This is a very silly statement.

How are two individual Councillors supposed to "bring jobs" to an area? Or for that matter, how can any one TD do so, as Tom Barry seems to have promised?

Can you folks please use the Cork East thread that's listed on the homepage on the left? constantly updating an old thread like this is making it incredibly tough to follow things.

is it really??? ARE YOU SERIOUSLY THAT NAIVE........Quinn direct for example wanted to build a new premises on the IDA site near the army camp in Fermoy but in fighting withing the town council and the county council over planning issues meant that mr quinn went to Little Island, I could give you other examples as well.Well the local Councillors can put their case to their party and then to the various government departments for investment in their local area.For example if Pa O' Driscoll or Kevin O Keffee had been elected im sure they would use their position to try and get investment in their area.
