Earlier today, Aontú Deputy Leader Gemma Brolly confirmed the five year old party will stand candidates in ten constituencies across the North.

“I am delighted to announce that Aontú will contest the General Election on July 4th.  We are a party of principle, it is important to us that these principles are represented at every level as far as possible. We do not exist to accommodate other parties, we genuinely work for the people and look forward to giving them a voice on 4th July 2024," she said.

The East Derry candidate continued: “For too long we have witnessed the needs of the people on the ground suffer, while those elected to represent us pat each others backs and feather their own nests, joining forces to eradicate democracy, impose legislation over the heads of our people and expect to hold their positions. Arising from its success in leading the No~No campaign for the dual referenda in the South, Aontú is on course to gain seats both in local government and in Europe.”

The recent referendum result in the 26 counties however, roaring from the ballot paper that people have had enough. Aontú were the only party to support a No-No vote, to fight to keep our Mothers in the constitution and we will continue to oppose any such efforts to silence the people and remove democracy from society.”

The Deputy Leader concluded: “People have watched North and South as parties have flip-flopped on policies and ran with the wind, we are here to make sure they can vote for a party with backbone, rooted in principle and determination to truly oppose all that is wrong with our society.”
