Hillery willing to take €100k wage cut for Dáil seat
Yesterday, Fianna Fáil’s chances of retaining the party’s two seats in Clare received a major boost when consultant psychiatrist Dr Hillery announced his intention to put his name forward for a selection convention this weekend at the West County Hotel in Ennis.
Dr Hillery’s entry into the race puts him in pole position to feature on the Fianna Fáil ticket for the four-seat constituency following the decision of Minister for Defence Tony Killeen to step down from politics for health reasons.
