Cork Matters

Will the Leader ask the Members opposite to stop coming into the House and treating it with disrespect? Day after day, week after week members of the Leader’s party in particular come in here and decry Government policy. They should come over to this side of the House and vote against their Government which is letting them down. They should stop coming in here and playing politics with the Irish people. They should come over to this side and vote. I ask the Leader to enforce that because I and the people are getting very tired of it and we are seeing the legacy of it now, with the economy in free-fall.

Senator Daly can talk about Kenmare hospital and Senator Leyden and Senator Ormonde can raise other issues, but they have never once voted against the Government whose policies they support. They should stop talking out of both sides of their mouths.
