She’s taking home €47k which is the average industrial wage apparently. Just the small semantic, her words, of gross versus net
When they didn't go with a high profile candidate I thought she was a good choice. Shinners would rock up a 12 to 15% vote from party ranks and she would supplement it with a few more by virtue of being middle class, Gaeltacht, O'Riada family and active MP.
I'd say her Poppy answer last week cost her a lot of the Shinner "banker" vote and that performance last night will have cost her some of the wider vote.
Still she is far from the worst in the field.
