I am calling for an independent investigation into the killing of Tipperary native, Michael Dwyer in Bolivia.
An independent investigation into the killing Michael Dwyer is the only possible solution to this most serious issue.
Michael Dwyer was a loving and much loved son of the Dwyer family.
He was a loving, caring person who came from a multi-cultural background.
Last year he was tragically shot dead in Bolivia and the quality of the information emerging from authorities there is suspect.

Posted on October 31, 2011 by Alan Kelly
I must congratulate Michael D. Higgins, our President Elect on his fantastic victory.
My colleague and friend Michael D. Higgins is a man of huge courage, conviction and vision. He has always been a hero of mine and an inpiration to me and that's why I am so proud of his victory in this Presidential election. Michael D helped and encouraged me to get into electoral politics with the Labour party when I first got elected to the Senate in 2007 and I will never forget him for that.

Posted on May 01, 2009 by Alan Kelly
Today and yesterday Eamon Gilmore was with us in Cork. We had a social evening in the Rochestown Park hotel on Thursday and there was a huge crowd present to here Eamon and myself speak. It was a great opportunity to rally the troops again for the final 5 weeks. it also gave me time to meet up with some of the new candidates that have come to the field in the last few weeks. I was really pleased to see so many new, young faces amongst them.

Campaigning in Cork North Central
Posted on March 21, 2009 by Alan Kelly
Yesterday was one of the best days on the Euro campaign trail. We were in Cork North Central with my colleague Kathleen Lynch TD and Cllrs. Catherine Clancy, John Kelleher and Michael O'Connel. Kathleen is a n excellent local TD and very popular. We visited Blackpool, Blarney St, Shandon St and a number of schools and community groups as well as doing quite an amount of press. It was great to be back on my old stomping ground. I really have an affection for that side of Cork from my time living in the city.
