in the 2023 Council election I was re-elected as part of a strong 5-person team of Alliance Councillors with MLA Patrick Brown acting as my election agent. Patrick and I worked together to deliver my local government manifesto Restore Downpatrick as our Unchallenged County Town.
Myself and my 5 colleagues can be contacted though our MLA’s offices at Market Lane in the centre of Downpatrick where we lead the fight-back against the Newry-based parties to Restore Downpatrick as our Unchallenged County Town.
We also have an office in Warrenpoint in the aptly-named Meeting Street.
These links will take you to my Facebook page and profile where you will see our team continuing to work day and daily for the people of Downpatrick and the Lecale Coast, North to Rowallane and Strangford Lough and South to the Mournes and Carlingford Lough.
The campaigns you see on this website mostly go back before Facebook to the 2007 to 2011 Council term and again from 2011 up to 2012. Since March 2019 I have been testing software that sends my current Facebook posts to this site – see below – It’s limited to the last dozen or so posts and I have been working on how to keep a larger number of these posts on the website.

COMMUNITY CLEAN-UP FOLLOWING VANDALISM AT CARE CENTRE
I want to thank friends and community activists living in Downpatrick Town Centre for their support in cleaning up Abbeyfield’s garden and grounds from cans, bottles and waste left by a rough-drinking group of young people responsible for recent vandalism at the Care Home.
It is utterly reprehensible that this sub-group should get their entertainment breaking windows and smashing doors in sheltered accommodation for older people needing some care.
However it is equally uplifting to see the reaction of local people wanting to support Abbeyfield and its work in our community. The overwhelming reaction of people living in the town centre is one of disgust and there was no shortage of people wanting to go down and help Abbeyfield on Monday night.
I was also pleased with the reaction of the Community Police in visiting the site and now keeping it on their list of areas needing regular patrolling.
Thanks to everyone who helped with some of them in picture including Cadog MacInnreachtaigh Jonnie , Fintan, my predecessor as Councillor Bill Corry now in his 90's and others too shy to be in the picture)
