Joan Collins Biography

Joan Collins is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on June 4, 1961 in Drimnagh, Ireland. Joan Collins (born 4 June 1961) is an Irish Independents 4 Change politician who has been a Teachta Dála (TD) for the Dublin South-Central constituency since the 2011 general election.

Collins committed to facilitating the nomination of Senator David Norris for a place on the ballot paper ahead of the 2011 presidential election. She said that the people of Ireland should be allowed to decide Norris’s suitability for the role. On 20 September 2011, she confirmed she had signed the relevant papers.

As a Councillor, Collins came to prominence on 27 January 2011, when she confronted Bertie Ahern on camera as he was being interviewed outside Leinster House, on the day Ahern retired from politics with a €150,000 a year pension as wages were being cut and taxes increased, with Collins asking the former Taoiseach if he had “no shame” and “How dare you?” Ahern ignored her and dismissed her as someone who had approached him “to try get themselves on television and radio”, though Collins later said she had not seen the television cameras. She released a video in which she stated she had been annoyed by “the smug smile on his face and the way he was waffling on as if he hadn’t got a care in the world”. A year later she said she did not regret her action against Ahern, and said that Fianna Fáil had not approached her about the incident since her election to the Dáil.

In December 2012, Collins named crime journalist Paul Williams and sports star Ronan O’Gara under Dáil privilege as being among those to benefit from having their penalty points cancelled by gardaí. Justice Minister Alan Shatter called Collins’s action a “total disgrace” and she was reported to a Leinster House watchdog called the Dáil Committee on Procedure and Privileges.

In December 2011, she described the proposed household charge being brought in as part of the 2012 Irish budget as a “Trojan Horse”. On 15 December 2011, she helped launch a nationwide campaign against the proposed household charge. In February 2012, she accompanied a collection of housing groups to Mountrath, County Laois, who successfully prevented the deputy sheriff and gardaí from evicting a man from his home, using an interpretation of the state’s constitution as the basis of their argument. The man was ultimately evicted two weeks later, an action which Collins strongly condemned.
