She has been a member of the Sinn Féin Ard Chomhairle and is the party's spokeswoman on equality and housing. The Sinn Féin website stated in March 2008 the parties intentions to stand Michelle as a candidate for the 2011 Irish presidential elections in order to have a senior Sinn Féin party member in place as president by the centenary of the Easter Rising (i.e. 2016). It is not believed that party president Gerry Adams will be running for president. (en)
  • Michelle Gildernew, född 1 januari 1970 i Caledon, är en nordirländsk politiker inom Sinn Féin. Familjen Gildernew var involverad i en av de centrala händelserna för medborgarrättskampen i Nordirland när de vräktes från sin kommunala bostad i Caledon 1968. Michelle Gildernew studerade vid University of Ulster i Coleraine och engagerade sig under 1990-talet i Sinn Féin. Hon valdes till Nordirlands regionala parlament 1998 för valkretsen Fermanagh and South Tyrone, och 2001 invaldes hon i det brittiska underhuset för samma valkrets. Hon segrade med en majoritet av endast 53 röster över Ulster Unionist Partys kandidat, James Cooper. UUP bestred valresultatet och hävdade att valfusk förekommit, då vissa vallokaler skulle ha hållit öppet efter stängningstid. Valresultatet bekräftades dock och hon fick behålla sitt mandat. Hon återvaldes i valet 2005. Sedan 8 maj 2007 är Gildernew jordbruksminister i regeringen i Nordirland . (sv)
