Profile picture of Martina Stafford

Martina Stafford

PBP–Solidarity candidate for Wexford

Martina is from Wexford and has been an activist and organiser for years on issues such as the cost of living, housing and gender- based violence. She is a musician and has worked as a carer for people with intellectual and physical disabilities. A key issue for Martina in this general election is the crisis in care for children with autism and people with disabilities. She has campaigned on LGBTQ rights, reproductive rights, anti-racism and Palestinian solidarity. Martina stands for an end to US troops and US military using Shannon and no to facilitating exports for genocide in Gaza in our airspace. At a time of growing inequality, a vote for  Martina would be a vote for an alternative which puts the wellbeing of people and the planet before corporate profits.
