Liadh Ní Riada: Sinn Féin needs to engage better with voters after poor election performance

Outgoing Sinn Féin MEP Liadh Ní Riada said she her party needs to engage better with voters after a disappointing local and European election campaign.

Ms Ní Riada conceded defeat in the Ireland South election yesterday after her party had requested a recount. Party members withdrew this request yesterday evening after counters carefully went through the ballots of Ms Ní Riada and Grace O'Sullivan of the Green Party.
