Voting for marriage a labour of love for Paula
Cllr Paula Desmond, a solicitor who specialises in family mediation, will marry long-term partner Joe Feery on Friday, October 10. Her previous marriage was annulled, while Mr Feery, a Labour Party activist and former town councillor, from Tullamore, Co Offaly is divorced.
“I wouldn’t have crossed party lines, otherwise there would have been arguments at the dinner table,” Cllr Desmond joked.
