McNulty says he will ‘restore pride and passion’ as Newry/Armagh MP

Armagh’s All-Ireland winning full back, Justin McNulty has been selected as the SDLP candidate in May’s Westminster election.

McNulty was selected at a packed convention in the Armagh City Hotel on Thursday Night.

Speaking after his selection, McNulty said, “The energy in the room tonight was electric. I’m delighted and filled with determination to justify the faith that the party has placed in me.

“This is a game changer seat. The balance of power in Westminster may well, in certain circumstances, be held by Newry and Armagh.

“But we can change the game by winning this election, we will show the electorate that we are worthy of their trust.

“This goal is worth going for, and it is within reach. I will give my heart, my soul, my every waking moment to restore passion and pride to politics and to the people of Newry and Armagh who have been so badly let down.”
