“It wasn’t really a vote for Ali Farren or for Joy Beard in south Inishowen. It was a vote for the 100% Redress Party.

“The six candidates of us that ran, all we are is accidental politicians.

“We are just people who bought defective concrete and that’s the bottom line.”

He added: “I’m just a small business owner who works in the community.

“Denis McGee is a man that puts up plasterboarding on ceilings.

“Three weeks ago he was plasterboarding and today he’s a councillor.

“Tomás Devine is a man that cuts lawns ad cleans streets.

“So we’re just ‘Joe Soaps’.

“But we’re not stupid and we will learn fairly fast.”

Pointing to voters who gave “us a voice”, Mr Farren said: “At the moment we have a [mica redress] scheme that’s not fit for purpose.

“People can’t get on it. People can’t even get help to get on it.

“Ultimately, we will be working to deliver a better scheme.”
