Eoin Hayes, Social Democrats TD for Dublin Bay South

Ireland is a great country with great people, but Irish politics needs to be more courageous. I believe our people deserve a standard of life consistent with other Western European countries – great public services, affordable childcare and education, proper well-maintained modern infrastructure, thriving indigenous economy, and a safe city.

Thank you Dublin Bay South!

Eoin’s Priorities

Deliver Homes for People, Not Funds

I believe the approach to housing by this government has failed too many. We in the Social Democrats have a different plan which prioritises people over funds.

Infrastructure for the 21st Century

We must be more ambitious for our country for the 21st century. We believe in long term infrastructure planning, taking key projects out of elections cycles and auction politics.

A “New Deal” for Families

Raising a family in Dublin is becoming increasingly difficult and expensive. We believe in making Ireland the best country in the world to raise children.

A Sustainable Planet for All

As part of the next government, the Social Democrats will ensure that Ireland can play its role in creating a sustainable planet where no one is left behind.

About Eoin

Hi, I’m Eoin Hayes TD.

I am the Social Democrats TD for Dublin Bay South, previously Dublin City Councillor for the Kimmage-Rathmines area.

I’m a life-long renter and aspiring homeowner. I know the housing crisis personally, and its devastating effect on families and young people across the city, and it’s why I stood for election to Dáil Éireann.

I live locally with my partner and currently work as a consultant helping small businesses to grow. I’m a graduate of London Business School, and I’m passionate about creating economic opportunities for everyone.

“Eoin is a dedicated and hard-working public representative and has already shown his commitment to the people of Kimmage-Rathmines in the short time he has been on Dublin City Council. He exemplifies the type of change that the Social Democrats offer.”
