Independent Ireland Leader, Michael Collins TD, has called for quarterly meetings among opposition leaders to strengthen collaboration, uphold democratic values, and present a united front against government overreach.
In a letter addressed to opposition leaders, Deputy Collins highlighted the need for structured engagement to ensure accountability, democracy, and justice.
Party Leader Michael Collins TD stated: “The recent occasion where we stood together as leaders of the opposition was a pivotal turning point in our collective mission. Despite our diverse political views, we share a common goal: safeguarding the interests of our nation and upholding democracy. Regular meetings will help us identify common ground and work more effectively on behalf of the people we represent.”
Key Proposal:
- Quarterly opposition meetings to discuss strategy, share insights, and coordinate responses to government actions.
- A united approach to holding the government accountable while respecting each party’s individual principles.
- A focus on common ground to strengthen the voice of the opposition in Dáil Éireann.
Deputy Collins emphasised that while political differences exist, greater collaboration will provide a stronger alternative to the current government. He has invited feedback from opposition leaders and looks forward to working together toward a more effective and impactful opposition.
