Ken Mooney

PBP–Solidarity candidate for Laois

Ken Mooney is a graduate from University of Limerick. He joined People Before Profit in 2021 and is running to fight for affordable and secure housing. “When I started in college, living down in Limerick in a house, that to be quite honest, you wouldn’t put a dog in. It was a devastating situation,  and I was paying premium prices – €600 per month – and I saw how there was just a complete lack of housing. We’ve had this housing crisis since I was a child, and I realised the Government can do something about but they aren’t doing anything about it. He has been involved in campaigns for causes including Palestine, Yemen, housing, minimum wage increases, and carer supports.
