A message from Deirdre de Burca from her web site:
Welcome to What I Stand For…
You are very welcome to my European campaign website ‘www.WhatIStandFor.ie’. My name is Deirdre de Burca and I am the Green Party MEP candidate for Dublin in the 2009 European elections in Dublin on June 5th. This website aims to let you know what I stand for as a MEP election candidate in Dublin and to explain the importance of having Green MEPs in the European Parliament. The videos on this page tell you about some of my main campaign themes – creating Thousands of new Green Jobs for Dublin, giving More Power to Irish Voters in Brussels, and creating A City that Works better for all Dubliners. I will use my MEP position in the European Parliament to promote economic recovery in Ireland, bring much greater levels of democracy to the EU and make Dublin a greener city, and Ireland a better place to live and work. Please watch my videos below, enter my competition , let me know what you think, and vote for me, Deirdre de Burca on June 5th 2009 as you Dublin MEP candidate in the European Parliament.
