Representing the people of Midlands-North-West my sole focus – Gildernew

Sinn Féin candidate for Midlands-North-West, Michelle Gildernew, has confirmed that representing the people of Midlands-North-West is her sole focus; and that she would not be standing in Fermanagh South Tyrone in the upcoming Westminster election on 4th July.

Speaking today she said:

“I want to represent the people of Midlands-North-West in the European Parliament; and hope that the voters will put their faith in me when they go to the ballot box on 7th June.

“That is my sole focus. I will not be running in the forthcoming Westminster election.

“In 2001 when I was first elected by a margin of 53 votes to the seat held by Bobby Sands in 1981 I was humbled.

“It has been both a privilege and an honour to represent the people of Fermanagh South Tyrone since; and I will be forever grateful for the trust they have placed in me.”
