Ms Humphreys said: “I am a centre ground, common sense, pro-European candidate in this election. The presidency is above party politics and I am asking voters to place their trust in me so that I can bring my experience to the role of president.

“I served in cabinet for 10 years overseeing the successful 1916 Commemorations; supporting businesses through Brexit and the pandemic; rolling out hot school meals to young children across the country; enhancing supports for our pensioners; and investing in local communities.

“I won’t let our country down and I will represent Ireland with pride diplomatically and culturally at home and on the world stage.”
