Gotta love the #Lismore tradition of Xmas trolley trees
#straya

A roundabout.
In the middle, trolleys stacked in the rough shape of an Xmas tree. Red and gold tinsel.

Finally got all posters down! About 20 of the 150 I had seem to have gone missing.

At €15 a pop, they're not cheap so please let me know if you find any!

I'm so grateful to all who gave me a vote and who supported me in any way over the past few weeks and months!

The momentum continues to grow from the locals, with double the votes in half the time canvassing, and I'm proud of how the campaign went!

Was really glad to get to doorknocking back in Riverstown in Tramore, after a great response and lots of support there during the locals!

I Will Fight For Universal Homes - editorial in this week's Waterford News & Star!

A photo of a sponsored editorial in Waterford News & Star which reads:

Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael have failed our generation. Many of those I know struggle to afford rent despite having good jobs. Others were pushed out of the country, away from their communities, friends and families, in order to be able to obtain a better quality of life in Sydney, Vancouver, or elsewhere in Europe. I always tell people that I am experiencing the ‘Irish Dream’ of living with my parents in my late twenties; just like roughly 2 in 3 people my age (68% of those who are 18-34 years old). Everyone knows that these parties continue to ruin our chances of getting a home, and it’s easy to point out their economic illiteracy (or nefarious incompetence) in housing policy, but it is a much more challenging task to highlight a radical, positive, and tangible alternative vision for a better housing system.

In this editorial, I will attempt to do so; in detailing this, I bring my experience in tenants’ unions in recent years, both as an active member of Living Rent Tenants’ Union in Scotland and as a founding member of CATU (Community Action Tenants’ Union) Waterford, in addition to my personal experience living and renting in various cities and countries throughout Europe. I have extensively researched the various housing models in existence across the world, and one stands out for its complete success in avoiding a Housing Crisis despite existing within an economy built on Western values and facing a

New leaflets finally printed!

I'm excited to present my vision for a more Democratic, Decentralised, Decarbonised Waterford where We All Thrive!

A blue leaflet front with a photo of Killian and text which reads:

Vote #1 Killian MANGAN on Friday 29th November
A Progressive Independent Voice for Waterford
weallthrive.ie
Democratise, Decentralise, Decarbonise

A leaflet back which reads:
An Independent Voice for Workers & Carers

Instead of struggling to survive, we all deserve to thrive.

Waterford needs an ambitious and radical plan to Democratise, Decentralise, and Decarbonise our society, our politics, and our economy now.

Every element of this plan must be both universal and accessible.

People and the planet must be at the forefront of every single policy, and a clear direction
must be set towards expanding the public realm and reducing inequality.

People have had enough of minor market tweaks and pure oppositional politics, and it is the responsibility of all those who oppose the status quo to present a positive and distinct vision, as well as clear steps to reach this vision.

For any plan radical enough to solve the many crises we face to be able to obtain the major democratic legitimacy required to popularise and implement, it must be co-created with everyone it impacts. By empowering workers, carers, and all in the community to speak up about what they need to thrive, major systemic improvements previously considered unrealistic can begin to be popularised.

WE ALL THRIVE with

Universal Homes
Transport for All
Responsive Healthcare
More Democracy
an Accessible Society
Fair Taxation
Holistic Education
Healthier People
People-Centred Care
Fairer Markets
Safer Streets
Stronger Communities
Democratic Social Media
a Vibrant Culture
More Worker Rights
Modern Drug Reform
Sustainable Agriculture
Reliable News
Accessible Fina

Statement on Waterford Airport:

Statement on Waterford Airport:

Instead, I am proposing a radical new approach; to work with others across the country on an ambitious plan to transform the system into one which is more democratic, more decentralised, and more decarbonised. Instead of relying on powerless councillors to ask an unelected local government to follow our wishes as locals, we must demand the right to elect a local government accountable to us, a right which exists around the world. Instead of asking Dublin for funding for each specific project due to living in one of the most centralised countries in the OECD, we must demand a radical decentralisation of powers, responsibilities, and funding to local and regional levels, so that decisions are made by those more accountable to us in Waterford.

Changing the system will empower all of us and finally allow Waterford to thrive.
