She left Independent Ireland last month.
An Independent Ireland founder is throwing her hat in the ring for the upcoming General Election.
Portarlington's Elaine Mullally left the party last month, citing a drift away from its previously-stated values.
She's now decided to contest the next General Election as an Independent in the Laois constituency, which will once again be split from Offaly during the next Dáil term.
Ms. Mullally says there's a clear appetite for change in her county:
