Galway Bay fm newsroom – A City Councillor has announced he will contest the upcoming General Election in Galway West South Mayo as an independant candidate.
Councillor Mike Cubbard was elected to Galway City Council last year and he’s now entering the race for a position in the five seat constituency next spring.
The 30 year old insurance worker says Irish politics are now at a crossroads – and the upcoming election is crucial to providing a fair recovery for the average working person across the country.
Key issues in his campaign include Galway’s Housing Crisis, traffic congestion in the city, health reform and the need for harsher measures to tackle crime.
Councillor Cubbard says his vision is a recovery that benefits everyone in the community.
