Lorraine Clifford-Lee to escape sanction for tweets posted before she entered politics

“The Party does not propose to discipline her, and she will remain our Party’s Spokesperson on Justice, Equality & Children in the Seanad."

Fianna Fáil Senator and Fingal by-election candidate Lorraine Clifford-Lee will not be disciplined or demoted for tweets she posted before she entered politics.

The well-respected Senator is the favourite to win the by-election later this month and the party has issued a statement backing their candidate.
