He and Mr Martin will canvas separately at the Aviva Stadium this evening as the Irish Rugby team takes on New Zealand.
Speaking at Leinster House, Mr Martin argued that the Government had “weathered many significant storms and shocks for the world economy” over four and a half years. “We will campaign to reduce prices, understanding the impact that inflation has had on households and family incomes. We will campaign on housing. We've been the agent of change in housing over the last number of years. We've engineered change and new departures in housing policy.
“Our campaign is about the future of Ireland and the future of our society, and we're determined to invest in public services and to create a tax environment that will encourage and nurture enterprise and make us resilient against international turmoil.”
