International Women's Day: Statements
Seanad Éireann — 2023-03-08
============================================================

Annie Hoey (LAB), Agricultural Panel

It is great to be able stand here as a feminist on International Women's Day and while I do not know if I will be able to top my #girlboss talk last year, it will live fondly on in my memories. International Women's Day has almost become International Women's Day week and could become a month at some point. This is my fourth event of the day and by the end of the day, I will have clocked up 11 events. It is probably the busiest day for any woman involved in anything, ever. Perhaps we should start a petition for International Women's Day to involve a lie-in.
