Irish politician (born 1969)
Joe Flaherty (born 1969) is an Irish Fianna Fáil politician who has been a Teachta Dála (TD) for the Longford–Westmeath constituency since the 2020 general election.[2] Flaherty was the only Longford-based TD to be returned at that election.
Flaherty was co-opted onto Longford County Council in 2018, and was re-elected in 2019.[1]
In 2020, Flaherty was criticised for writing a letter to court on behalf of three men convicted of assault, with former justice minister Charles Flanagan stating it was "dangerous" for TDs to try to "influence judicial decisions". Flaherty said he regretted writing the letter.[3]
Flaherty is the managing director of a newspaper company. He is married to Niamh Donlon and they have three children.[1]
